Systems biology and the biology of systems.
When I sit down to write an editorial for Physiology, I flatter myself that the two or three people who will ultimately read it want to hear my thoughts on a “big” topic. It strikes me that, within the rarefied realm of academic biology, there few bigger topics, or at least few topics more all encompassing in their scope, than Systems Biology. Perhaps it is the ambiguity inherent in its name th...
متن کاملSystems biology reveals biology of systems
In the last decades, genomic and postgenomic technologies obtained a great amount of information on molecular bases of cell physiology and organization. In spite of this, the knowledge of cells and living organisms in their entirety, is far from being achieved. In order to deal with biological complexity, Systems Biology uses a new approach to overcome this inadequacy. Despite different definit...
متن کاملSystems Biology, Integrative Biology, Predictive Biology
The pursuit of science is based on empiricism enabled by advancing technologies. Theories then emerge that unify our understanding of natural order. The trinity of experimentation, theory, and technology that underlies the scientific method cannot be placed into a hierarchy of importance. Theoretical fields quickly lose substance in the absence of robust experimentation, and theoretical conundr...
متن کاملIntegrative biology and systems biology
Demarcations of scientific fields have always followed either a conceptual breakthrough or have been a result of profoundly enabling technologies. Quantum theory and quantum mechanics revolutionized physics and engineering, but highenergy physics is a discipline fundamentally enabled by the linear accelerator. Similarly, the discovery of the structure of DNA gave birth to molecular biology; str...

tion was associated with an observable survival benefit and delay in progression to AIDS among HIV-1–infected IDUs. 3 While HTLV-I has been definitively proven to cause adult T-cell leukemia/lym-phoma and a progressive neurodegenerative illness known as tropical spastic parapare-sis/HTLV-I–associated myelopathy (TSP/ HAM), a causal role for HTLV-II with either leukemia or TSP/HAM is much less w...
