Molecular biology, economic development and workforce development
It's clear from what's emerging in economic development and workforce development that we need new ways to describe pathways.
These new approaches -- whether we are discussing career pathways or entrepreneurial ecosystems -- will be closer in construction to the pathway posters that you find in many biomedical research labs. My wife is a molecular biologist working in cancer research, and her lab has several posters of networks and pathways. Professionals in molecular biology, economic development and workforce development are trying to describe these complex networks and pathways that we cannot see. Compare a visual description of a entrepreneurial ecosystem, developed by practitioners in the European Union with one cancer signaling pathway.
