Systems Immunology

Systems Immunology

The immune system is a highly complex and dynamic biological system. It operates through intracellular molecular networks and intercellular (cell–cell) interaction networks. Systems immunology is an emerging discipline that applies systems biology approaches of integrating high-throughput multi-omics measurements with computational network modeling to better understand immunity at various scales. In this review, we summarize key omics technologies and computational approaches used for immunological studies at both population and single-cell levels. We highlight the hidden driver analysis based on data-driven networks and comment on the potential of translating systems immunology discoveries to immunotherapy of cancer and other human diseases.
