Abstract

Many complex diseases that are difficult to treat cannot be mapped onto a single cause, but arise from the interplay of multiple contributing factors. In the study of such diseases, it is becoming apparent that therapeutic strategies targeting a single protein or metabolite are often not efficacious. Rather, a systems perspective describing the interaction of physiological components is needed. In this paper, we demonstrate via examples of disease models the kind of inverse problems that arise from the need to infer disease mechanisms and/or therapeutic strategies. We identify the challenges that arise, in particular the need to devise strategies that are robust against variable physiological states and parametric uncertainties.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 25 May 2012.
All research outputs
#15,243,549
of 22,665,794 outputs
Outputs from Journal of Mathematical Biology
#331
of 655 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#103,124
of 161,882 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Journal of Mathematical Biology
#5
of 8 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,665,794 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 22nd percentile – i.e., 22% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 655 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 3.6. This one is in the 36th percentile – i.e., 36% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 161,882 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 25th percentile – i.e., 25% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 8 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has scored higher than 3 of them.
