课程简介

Systems biology, an interdisciplinary and data-driven approach to biomedicine, is increasingly transforming biomedicine from disease-driven and reactive to health-driven and predictive. ECE researchers are applying computational bioinformatics, bioimaging, and mathematical modeling to understand the molecular regulatory and signaling pathway networks associated with biological processes. ECE researchers are working with biologists to build mathematical models to predict the impact of drugs on cancer cells. When using drug therapy to deprive breast cancer cells of estrogen, some of the cells die, but others eventually become independent of estrogen (drug resistant) and begin to grow again. We built a model that shows how cells transition from estrogen sensitivity to estrogen independence. The model was used to design an optimal cycle of drug therapy that minimizes the growth of the cancer while preventing drug resistance.
