Description
 
SCOPE:
WCSB aims at bringing together the various communities involved in the different aspects of computational systems biology research, e.g. experimental biology, machine learning, signal processing, mathematics, statistics, and theoretical physics. The scientific program includes invited plenary talks as well as regular sessions with contributed research talks and posters.

Following the four successful events hosted by Tampere University of Technology (Finland), and the events hosted by the University of Leipzig (Germany), Aarhus University (Denmark), and University of Luxembourg, the eighth event will be organized at ETH Zürich (Switzerland), from 6 to 8 June 2011.
