Introduction to Systems Medicine

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceeding › Chapter

Abstract

Health and disease are the phenotypic manifestations of complex relationships molecules, cells, tissues, and organs. Although influenced by a range of “omics,” the historical reductionist approach to understanding pathogenesis and druggable interactions neglects the intricacies of multiply occurring activities which change over time. Systems biology and medicine, by comprehensively assessing connectivity in a dynamic way, provide opportunities to understand disease processes in ways that are holistic and clinically relevant and actionable.
