Abstract
The immeasurable complexity at every level of biological organization creates a daunting task for understanding biological function. Here, we highlight the risks of stripping it away at the outset and discuss a possible path toward arriving at emergent simplicity of understanding while still embracing the ever-changing complexity of biotic interactions that we see in nature.
摘要
生物组织各个层面的难以估量的复杂性给理解生物功能带来了艰巨的任务。在这里，我们强调了一开始就将其剥离的风险，并讨论了一种可能的途径，即在仍然接受我们在自然界中看到的生物相互作用的不断变化的复杂性的同时，达到理解的突现简单性。
