Collaboration to Understand Complex Diseases
The strategy of intellectual collaboration has accelerated modern research and research success. Identified by Professor Robert Adams in 2013 as the Fourth Age of Research collaboration is evident through ever increasing numbers of international multicenter publications. These tend to provide positive benefits in terms of citation; indeed Universities with a lower percentage of home grown paper...
متن کاملNetwork theory to understand microarray studies of complex diseases.
Complex diseases, such as allergy, diabetes and obesity depend on altered interactions between multiple genes, rather than changes in a single causal gene. DNA microarray studies of a complex disease often implicate hundreds of genes in the pathogenesis. This indicates that many different mechanisms and pathways are involved. How can we understand such complexity? How can hypotheses be formulat...
متن کاملUsing omics approaches to understand pulmonary diseases
Omics approaches are high-throughput unbiased technologies that provide snapshots of various aspects of biological systems and include: 1) genomics, the measure of DNA variation; 2) transcriptomics, the measure of RNA expression; 3) epigenomics, the measure of DNA alterations not involving sequence variation that influence RNA expression; 4) proteomics, the measure of protein expression or its ...
متن کاملHelping parents to understand rare diseases
Rare diseases are not that rare: worldwide, one in 12-17 people will be affected by a rare disease. Newborn screening for rare diseases has been adopted by many European and North American jurisdictions. The results of genetic testing are given to millions of families and children’s guardians who often turn to the Internet to find more information about the disease. We found 42 medical forums a...
متن کاملSystems Biology as a Comparative Approach to Understand Complex Gene Expression in Neurological Diseases
Systems biology interdisciplinary approaches have become an essential analytical tool that may yield novel and powerful insights about the nature of human health and disease. Complex disorders are known to be caused by the combination of genetic, environmental, immunological or neurological factors. Thus, to understand such disorders, it becomes necessary to address the study of this complexity...
