quote - better approach than gene sequence as universal panecea - (see quote below)

• Look at the high-level organization of the system
  • the living system
• Locate what is going wrong there and then work down to find what you might do
• at lower levels with a drug or any other kind of treatment for that matter to put it right
• That works much better than trying to go the other way because
  • going the other way, the space for
    • possible molecules and
    • possible effects and
    • even more possible combinations of effects
  • because those complex diseases are going to require combinations of treatment
  • There are too many
  • You can't do clinical trials on all of those possibilities
  • It's just far too expensive
  • So I think we just take need to take a different approach to medical research
    • to try to benefit from the human genome sequencing
    • in a way that's different from what they originally promised
