ABSTRACT
A.revolution.in.our.understanding.of.human.health.and.disease.has.been.launched.by.the.sequencing.of.a.prototypical.human.genome..To.a.large.degree,.this.achievement.represents.the.pinnacle. of.reductionist.scientific.thought,.as.having.all.genes.dissected,.one.could.in.principle.allow.reconstitution.of.the.organism..In.contrast,.the.classical.discipline.of.physiology.has.been.dealing.with.
