APO-SYS Consortium: Apoptosis Systems Biology Applied to Cancer and AIDS

An integrated approach of experimental biology, data mining, mathematical modelling, biostatistics, systems engineering and molecular medicine.

22 March 2011
Austria
APO-SYS consortium is a multidisciplinary research platform with the aim of developing an integrated in vitro, in vivo and systems biology modelling approach to understand apoptosis in the context of health and disease, in particularly, cancer and AIDS.

Using different organisms as an experimental models (yeast, fly, mouse and human) the consortium is integrating a wide variety of biological data with the main goal to develop and apply systems biology approaches to understand and model biological processes at different levels of organization (genome, transcriptome, proteome, degradome, phosphoproteome, interactome, lipidome, regulatory networks, intercellular communication, physiological processes).

APO-SYS is integrating dispersed capabilities of 22 partners from 12 European countries and assemble the critical mass required to enable systems biology approaches, by networking the necessary expertise to secure European excellence and competitiveness, and to explore new directions in the research field. Consortium plans to deliver new knowledge on basic biological processes relevant to health and disease.
