physiome

The Physiome Project will provide a framework for modelling the human body, using computational methods that incorporate biochemical, biophysical and anatomical information on cells, tissues and organs. The main project goals are to use computational modelling to analyse integrative biological function and to provide a system for hypothesis testing.
