The New Field of Network Physiology: Building the Human ... frontiersin.org 4 facts
claimThe field of Network Physiology has generated interest across a diverse community of research scientists, including those in applied mathematics, physics, data science, biomedical engineering, neuroscience, physiology, and clinical medicine.
claimBasic physiology and clinical medicine traditionally utilize a reductionist approach, analyzing health and disease by examining the structural organization and dynamics of individual organ systems.
claimThe scope of Network Physiology extends beyond applying knowledge from statistical physics, applied mathematics, informatics, and network theory to systems biology, neuroscience, physiology, and medicine; it requires new computational and analytical approaches to extract information from complex data, infer transient interactions between dynamically changing systems, and quantify global behavior at the organism level.
claimA central question in physiology is how physiological states and functions emerge from the collective network dynamics of integrated systems.
Self, selfhood and understanding - infed.org infed.org 2 facts
claimHuman beings consist of physiology and linguistic practices, and their sense of identity and personal history arises out of culturally available narrative forms.
referenceThe 'post-modern self' perspective defines identity as formed and re-formed by unfolding desire realized through lifestyle practices, posits that human beings consist of physiology and linguistic practices where identity arises from culturally available narrative forms, focuses practice on discourse and stories, and seeks to encourage playfulness and engagement with different ways of telling stories about lives.
