Institute for Systems Biology

The Institute for Systems Biology (ISB) is a research organization that studies living things—like cells, organs, and entire organisms—by looking at how their parts interact as a whole. Instead of focusing on individual genes or molecules separately, ISB uses advanced data analysis and systems thinking to understand complex biological processes. This approach helps scientists develop better ways to diagnose, treat, and prevent diseases, and promotes personalized medicine tailored to each individual. Located in Seattle, ISB collaborates globally to push the boundaries of biological and health research through innovative, interdisciplinary methods.
