Existing Workflow in Experimental Research

Consider the following typical workflow in research. The subsequent figure shows these general steps in experimental research.

1. Use preliminary results and published data to develop a model and hypothesis in your area of interest.

2. Validate your model by making predictions and designing experiments to test your model and hypothesis.

3. Make further predictions based on your model.

4. Publish results and predictions.

5. Continue to test predictions experimentally.

Workflow Incorporating Mathematical Modeling

Mathematical modeling integrates into the preceding workflow by providing the means to:

• Consolidate quantitative data into the model.

• Represent large pathways and networks and lay them out in meaningful ways using a software application.

• Study emergent properties of pathways and use these predictions to guide the direction of experimental research in ways that can save time and development costs.
