摘要

Pregnancy is a dynamic, multidimensional process requiring precise coordination between maternal, fetal, and placental systems. Traditional reductionist approaches, while valuable, cannot capture the complexity of maternal–neonatal immunology. Systems biology provides a framework to integrate multi-scale data, build predictive models, and design interventions. This chapter introduces systems biology concepts, outlines modeling strategies, and highlights successful applications that include case studies of placental antibody transfer and systems immunology at the maternal–fetal interface.
