Systems Biology & New Sequencing Technologies (SBNST)

Barcelona, Spain

Scope



Parallel advances in two relatively disconnected areas of science are boosting our understanding of biological systems. On the one hand, systems biology, with its integration of high-throughput biological data and its emphasis on quantitative modeling and simulation, is providing a global perspective of biology that goes beyond classical reductionist approaches. On the other hand, new sequencing technologies are developing at an enormous speed, and provide whole genome data that revealed previously unexplored genomic features such as functional intergenic regions, copy number variations and other genomic differences between members of the same species. In this meeting, we will gather an inter-disciplinary group of scientists with roots in these two disciplines with the aim to create a forum to discuss new ideas and explore what lies in overlap between these two growing fields.
