Personalised Medicine: Taking a New Look at the Patient
  Personalised medicine strives to identify the right treatment for the right patient at the right time, integrating different types of biological and environmental information. Such information come from a variety of sources: omics data (genomic, proteomic, metabolomic, etc.), live molecular diagnostics, and other established diagnostics routinely used by medical doctors. Integrating these different kinds of data, which are all high-dimensional, presents significant challenges in knowledge representation and subsequent reasoning. The ultimate goal of such a modelling effort is to elucidate the flow of information that links genes, protein signalling and other physiological responses to external stimuli such as environmental conditions or the progress of a disease.
