Systems biology medicine was distinctively more engineering-oriented; that's a difference. Their goal was to construct the entire wiring diagram of the cell, etc. So that *is* a quantitative approach, but I believe more in network medicine 2.0 👍

Another theme is the revolutionary change LLM chatbots brought about. The shift from the big-data era of AI as super-human predictors to AI as human simulacra. I.e., from a mainstream science viewpoint, a change to a methodologically more familiar ground.
