title: Systems cell biology based on high-content screening.
abstract: A new discipline of biology has emerged since 2004, which we call "systems cell biology" (SCB). Systems cell biology is the study of the living cell, the basic unit of life, an integrated and interacting network of genes, proteins, and myriad metabolic reactions that give rise to function. SCB takes advantage of high-content screening platforms, but delivers more detailed profiles of cellular systemic function, including the application of advanced reagents and informatics tools to sophisticated cellular models. Therefore, an SCB profile is a cellular systemic response as measured by a panel of reagents that quantify a specific set of biomarkers.
