Systems Biology Method

Meaning

The Systems Biology Method is a comprehensive, integrative scientific approach that studies the complex interactions between the components of biological systems—such as genes, proteins, metabolites, and hormones—rather than analyzing them in isolation. This methodology utilizes computational modeling and high-throughput data to understand how these interconnected networks give rise to the emergent properties of health and disease. In clinical practice, it provides a holistic framework for mapping the entire neuroendocrine-metabolic landscape of an individual.
