Head: Network Physiology Laboratory
We are amazed by the complexity of physiological control. The main question is why someindividuals survive critical illnesses and others do not. We try to addressthis question by mapping the network of physiological interactions during theprogression of critical illnesses such as sepsis and multiorgan failure.
