  1. New Frontiers in Systems Biology John J. Tyson Department of Biology and Virginia Bioinformatics Institute Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University Blacksburg, Virginia

  2. Systems Science …the use of mathematics to study how the parts of a complex system fit together to function in ways that transcend the properties of the individual parts.

  3. Systems Science is the flip-side of Reductionist Science. reductionist science (parts) systems science (whole) Norbert Weiner (1948) Cybernetics: Control & Communication in the Animal and the Machine

  4. Outline Weather Forecasting Traditional Systems Biology “New” Systems Biology

  5. The map is a snapshot of the highs and lows at one instant; weather is a dynamic process…the movement of air masses in time across the continent. Weather Forecasting

  6. Navier-Stokes Equations Modern weather prediction is based on accurate computer “simulations” of moving air masses. Weather Forecasting

  7. Weather Forecasting Accurate weather forecasting is essential to modern… Transportation industry Military planning Civil defense

  8. Biological Systems Ecosystems Odum, MacArthur, Wilson, May, … Infectious disease

  9. Biological Systems Ecosystems Organ systems Entelos: math model of human digestive system— diabetes, obesity

  10. Biological Systems Organ systems Ecosystems Animal cell “Systems-level” thinking has been slow to catch on because…

  11. … the “parts list” was missing 1985-2000: The era of reductionist molecular biology; discovery of the parts list (proteins and the genes that encode them); culminating in the complete sequence of the human genome.

  12. New Systems Biology …the use of mathematics to study how genes and proteins interact to produce the complex behaviors of a living cell… movement energy supply signaling growth division death

  13. External signals Growth Development Division Reproduction Death Information Processing System Cell signaling Hanahan & Weinberg (2000)

  25. Accurate account of the properties of >100 mutant cells; correctly predicts properties of new mutant combinations

  26. Designer Drugs Taxol Cancer Information Processing System What use is the new systems biology? Hanahan & Weinberg (2000)

  27. The impact of the new systems biology on biomedicine, pharmaceuticals and homeland security may, some day, be as great as the impact of modern weather prediction on transportation, military preparedness and civil defense.
