Description |
|
With the advent of high-throughput techniques we are nowadays in a position to measure many aspects of molecular and cell biology. This enables a quantitative approach to study not only basic biological processes but also biomedical and medical questions. However, due to the novelty of these types of data methods for their efficient analysis, integration and interpretation need to be developed to cope with this challenge. Another complication stems from the need for a functional analysis implying a systems approach. For this reason approaches utilizing molecular interactions, e.g., network-based methods, represent promising approaches for elucidating molecular information processing and ultimately pathogenesis of Complex Diseases. The conference aims to fostering quantitative research in Computational Biology, Biostatistics, Systems Biology, and Network Biology, with particular focus on disease-related problems like cancer, obesity or cardiovascular diseases. Topics include, but are not limited to: Detection/Prediction and Characterizations of Complex Diseases Next generation sequencing Microarray, Proteomics and Metabolic Data Gene Networks (inference, analysis and integration) Genome-scale Data Integration Genotype-Phenotype Relations Pathway Analysis Mechanisms of Cell Differentiation and Development |
