Abstract: A hierarchical biological modelling system and method provides integrated levels of information synthesized from multiple sources. An executable model of a biological system is developed from information and structures based on the multiple sources. The model is balanced to ensure that it matches the information and structures. Once the model is created and balanced it can be used to provide insight into phenomena at the cellular, or subcellular level, as well as phenomena at the patient, organ and system levels. From this information clinical trials can be emulated, biologic targets for drug development can be identified and subcellular phenomena over time can be observed. The model provides an integrated view of a multi-variable biological system.
