'Functional genomics and system biology', Cambridge, UK
High-throughput functional genomic technologies generate vast amounts of information describing the functions and interactions of components within a cell. Through the combined use of computational and experimental techniques, researchers are beginning to achieve comprehensive mappings of cellular and molecular networks. However, there are major challenges to interpret these data in a biologically meaningful fashion.
The event will bring together experts and leading scientists to discuss advances in their fields and learn about recent progress. A forum for discussions about post-genomic research in humans and other organisms, topics will include:
- high throughput technologies and their applications;
- cellular assays and imaging;
- functional genomics of disease and model organisms;
- single cell/molecule level analysis;
- genome regulation;
- human genetic variation and disease;
- visualisation and modelling of biological networks and pathways;
- frontiers in computational biology.For further information, please visit: https://registration.hinxton.wellcome.ac.uk/display_info.asp?id=231(opens in new window)
