To find a cure for the disease, to find a disease changing medication, we must first understand the causal mechanisms at the origins of the disease, the aetiology. We currently have many hypotheses about potentially relevant mechanisms in a causal chain, but it should be emphasized that we have no hypothesis about the primary origin. Let's call the former [[non-primary mechanism hypotheses]] to be clear on this point.

Advances biomedical science through integrating knowledge with quantitative models.

This project aims to formalize and connect existing knowledge into predictive, multiscale modelling frameworks that can be evaluated against measurable data.


Mission

[edit | edit source]

Our goal is to integrate biological knowledge through computational modeling to understand disease mechanisms.

Approach

[edit | edit source]
  • Integrate published knowledge
  • Develop quantitative mechanistic models
  • Compare predictions with observations
How to Contribute

Contributions are welcome from scientists with different backgrounds. Biologists and clinicians can help ensure that models remain grounded in experimental observations, while biophysicists and computational scientists can assist in translating mechanistic ideas into formal models.

Contributors are invited to contact the site's founder (robert.scott@univ-brest.fr) or edit the pages directly as on Wikipedia.
