Chapter 10: Systems and network biology
Abstract
Biology has evolved into a data-intensive science. As a result, biology and computer science today operate well together and are interconnected through other scientific disciplines such as statistics, mathematics, biophysics, and biochemistry. The combination of this diverse knowledge has led to the creation of big-data research, network biology, and other developing biological paradigms. For instance, network biology helps us understand the parts and functions of cells and subcells at the system level. Frequently, network biology is also referred to as systems biology. The purpose of this field is to comprehend organisms or cells at multiple functional and mechanistic levels as a group. Currently, ...
