Grand Challenges in Systems Physiology

摘要: Systems physiology is an integrated discipline. It combines experimental, computational, and theoretical studies to advance our understanding of the human other living creatures. In words, systems biology with a (i.e., functionally)-centered view. Understanding principle behind system one fundamental challenges in biology. One can not make use sophisticated computational models or arrays biological data deepen function without in-depth insights into as whole. For example, robustness its trade-offs have been proposed principles (Kitano, 2004, 2007). This view, although still speculative, provides framework for conceptualization observed phenomena. Identification series such their relationships enrich systems. The beauty good theory that it reshapes view world, so same phenomena may be re-interpreted light introduced concepts. Such transformation often leads true advances science.
