Computational and engineering methods are at the core of systems biology, synthetic biology and systems medicine. The integration of quantitative data from a variety of sources together with model inference and analysis techniques as well as control theory have proven valuable to decipher biological systems ranging from intracellular mechanisms to human disease.
FOSBE aims at stimulating discussion and fostering collaborations among scientists, from method to theory oriented engineers to experimental and theoretical biologists, interested or working onworking on systems theory applied to life sciences. Major conference topics are:
FOSBE 2016 features a varied scientific program, including plenary lectures, invited keynote presentations, contributed and invited technical sessions, pre-conference workshops, and a social program that will take you to the cultural heritage sites of the city of Magdeburg.
