Abstract  

Systems Biology including Systems Biomedicine is emerging internationally and providing opportunities for revolutions of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and conventional western drugs (WD), while the latter has been taking more advantages because WD has much stronger research basis at molecular levels than TCM. Thorough understanding of molecular network including gene network would automatically induces design of WD into formula western drugs equipped with TCM philosophy, but such molecular formula drug is eventually one of the key aims of modernization of TCM. So TCM is facing big threats it never met. This situation requires a nationwide and international strategy with intelligence and resolution.
