SCI BS/SYSTEM BIOLOGY AND NETWORK SCIENCE
Abstract
This project fosters research investigations through a modernized systematic approach that uses iterative computer simulation with mathematical modeling and biological information to analyze and refine biological studies. The information gained from these studies provides a better understanding of the overall biological system and its molecular network of interactions, which leads to improved early strategic decision-making in the development of preventive and treatment solutions to diseases. This approach establishes a model for application of systems biology processes and knowledge of biological networks to discover medical products that prevent and/or treat diseases or medical conditions. This more complex, yet integrated approach, to studying biological systems could potentially reduce both the time and expense of medical product development for the Army. The cited work is consistent with the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering science and technology priority focus areas and the Army Modernization Strategy. Work in this project is performed by the U.S. Army Medical Research and Material Command (USAMRMC), Fort Detrick, MD.
