Exploring genomic medicine using integrative biology [electronic resource] / Atul Butte.
(CIT): The past 10 years have led to a variety of measurements tools in molecular biology that are nearly-comprehensive in nature. For example, microarrays are one of at least 30 large-scale measurement or experimental modalities available to investigators in molecular biology. Instead of focusing on the cell, or the genotype, or on any single measurement modality, using integrative biology allows us to think holistically and horizontally. A disease like diabetes can lead to myocardial infarction, nephropathy, and neuropathy; to study diabetes in genomic medicine would require reasoning from a disease to all its various complications to the genome and back. To enable such research, we have been studying the process of intersecting genome-scale data sets in molecular biology, such as those from genetics, microarrays, knockout experiments, and many others.
