Departing
from naive reductionism, the systems biology
has the potential to revolutionize understanding
of cancer and development, application of
highly effective interventions by providing
a systematic, integrative and holistic framework.
The
gradual incorporation of genomics-based
stests should lead us to the realization
that Systems Medicine is not a distant reality,
but is happening today. The remaining step
in this advancement is medical evidence.
Without evidence that these tests are key
to optimizing therapy, they will not be
incorporated into clinical practice.
