A review of connectionist or network approach to describe and understand regulatory processes in organism is presented. Network models of neural, genetic, immune and endocrine regulation are considered and a conception of organism as an integrative network system is introduced. A new approach to the problem of organism state control, called associative control, is proposed and its possible medical applications, in particular, in psychotherapy, psychoanalysis and alternative medicines are discussed.
