Solomon has contended that the practice of biological research will transform into an engineering discipline, calling the 21st century "the century of biology" in a keynote address she delivered at IMS2015.[1][2] During her tenure, Agilent's transformation from an electronics company to a life sciences and diagnostics company exemplifies this change of focus from the "century of physics" to the "century of biology".[3]
