生物医学工程学理学硕士-基因组学和系统生物学

基因组学和系统生物学是一门扎根于生物医学工程学的学科，致力于高级数学和建模方法，以了解构成人体的多种尺度如何维持健康并促进疾病的发展。对生命的了解始于最小的尺度，因此需要详细了解分子如何组装到分子机器中，这些分子机器产生的细胞又构成构成人体的组织和器官。理解这些多尺度的相互作用是一个巨大的挑战，需要将网络分析理论与跨多个时空尺度可视化和操纵生物网络的新方法结合起来的新方法。其他信息，包括我们系的系统生物学系，在这里提供。
Genomics and Systems Biology is a discipline rooted in biomedical engineering that devotes advanced mathematical and modeling approaches to understand how the multiple scales that make up the human body maintain health and contribute to disease. Understanding life begins at the smallest of scales requiring a detailed understanding of how molecules assemble into the molecular machines that create cells that in turn constitute the tissues and organs that make up the human body. Understanding these multi-scale interactions is a staggering challenge that requires new approaches that combine network analysis theory with new ways of visualizing and manipulating biological networks across multiple spatial and temporal scales.
