pathway modeling

Pathway modeling is a method used to visually represent the complex processes within biological systems, such as how cells work or how diseases develop. It maps out the interactions between molecules, genes, and proteins to understand how they influence each other and lead to specific outcomes. By creating these models, scientists can identify key steps or targets for therapies, predict the effects of interventions, and gain insights into system behavior without performing all experimental tests. Essentially, pathway modeling provides a structured way to comprehend and analyze the intricate networks that underpin biological functions.
