Definition of «system medicine»

Systems Medicine is an interdisciplinary field that focuses on understanding complex biological systems and their interactions. It involves studying the behavior of cells, tissues, organs, and organisms as integrated units rather than focusing on individual components or molecular pathways in isolation. The goal of Systems Medicine is to develop a comprehensive understanding of health and disease at multiple levels of organization, from genes and proteins to tissues and whole organisms. This approach can help researchers identify novel therapeutic targets and improve the accuracy of diagnosis and treatment for various diseases, including cancer, diabetes, heart disease, and neurological disorders.
