Europe takes aim at major metabolic disease with Systems Biology: Plan to change the way medical research is done (AlphaGalileo, 13 November 2007)

A major European initiative against major metabolic disorders such as obesity will be launched at the EuroBioForum conference at Lisbon in December 2007. The aim of this initiative is to revolutionise the way medical research is conducted by taking an engineering-led approach under the umbrella of systems biology, in which rigorous mathematical models are derived from experimental data and used to make predictions, which can be tested and then refined.
