Thought about this quite a bit over the last few,
though not much traction on this list.  Among other things I'm interested
in the functor category between GRNs and Metabolic Networks
and how they might mutually select (one really needs N-cats and NTs).
Though since I have little official background in the area I have some
fears about being over-glib.

I can refer you to some SFI associated folks who might indulge the
notion if you are really interested.
