This webinar makes the case for a "systems" approach, specifically to better understand how biological systems interact and the profound implications for human healthcare. In addition, attendees will learn about the latest tools and techniques used in systems biology research, particularly how these tools serve each omics discipline while simultaneously drawing them together to the advantage of biomedical research.
