GENESYS Inaugural Meeting, Edinburgh, NESC ,1-3 October 2008
The goal of the GENESYS network is to promote the required integration
between genetics, bioinformatics and mathematics to facilitate the
reverse-engineering of regulatory networks using genetic mapping data
and high throughput data, such as transcriptomics. This is an important
step toward systems biology approaches where these regulatory networks
will be refined and evolve into quantitative models of regulation. This
first meeting will be hosted by the e-science centre in Edinburgh.
1-2 October: interactive workshop (max. 50 participants)
2-3 October: Conference
