Description |
|
Scope: ECSB 2009 will draw on international expertise from, on the one hand, biological disciplines (e.g. genomics, proteomics, metabolomics, etc) and on the other hand, computational and engineering experts, to present a balanced overview of the very latest key technologies and research advances as pertaining to synthetic biology in general and to the quest for minimal living forms in particular. Some, but not all, of the topics to be presented in the conference include: DNA sequencing and synthesis, chemical and biological networks, computational techniques (modelling, data mining, optimisation) for synthetic biology, minimal genomes, evolution (natural, directed and simulated), origins of life, biological systems, cell cycles and circuits, infrastructures for synthetic biology, minimal cells, etc. Grants for young researchers available. Closing date for applications: 14 Jan 2009 |
