Welcome to the AB3C.::SB-meeting::.2010

 

Systems biology is a link between life sciences and theoretical modeling with a systemic view of biological processes. A major reason for the recent emergence of systems biology is that the experimental techniques and research tools for scientists have tremendously developed within the past decade offering for the first time a comprehensive quantitative analysis of complex biological processes at large scale. AB3C presents a Brasil Deutschland Systems Biology meeting, in Ouro Preto, MG. An event co-sponsored by UFMG PhD Program on Bioinformatics.

You are welcome to join us at the AB3C SB-meeting!

Submissions

 

Abstracts for presentation in the two poster sessions will be accepted up February 7, 2010; however, acceptance will be communicated within seven days after submission. The website will be open for submission at November 21. Follow this template to prepare your abstract.

- due to the scope of the meeting, presentations focusing on an overview of the research project are expected to be accepted to support discussion on the systems biology approaches applicable to the research project.
