Since there is no abstract available we provide the first paragraph.
From DNA, RNA and molecules to whole organism, various species and ecosystem, life evolution and human outcome are influenced, or in some cases completely guided, by interactions networks. Revolutionary genome-wide structural and functional mapping technologies allow now in an unprecedented to provide measurements of molecular physical interactions such as DNA-binding proteins and protein-protein interactions. This evidence along with rapid advances of systems computational biology, synthetic biology-based reconstruction of synthetic networks and mathematical networking shape now new dynamics in the fields of systems science and systems medicine. Here, it is discussed the exotic perspectives and challenges to achieve personalized medicine through systems approach by integrating both clinical and breakthrough omics data.
