  CHI's Informatics and Microarray Data Analysis: Deciphering the Data Deluge  
  January 28, 2003

Biotechnology

  
     
  Cambridge Healthtech Institute, Swissotel, Am Marktplatz Oerlikon, CH-8050, Zurich, Switzerland
February 11-12, 2003

Miniaturized platform technologies are no longer new concepts. Chips and microarrays are becoming standard tools for the high-throughput analysis of gene expression and continue to grow in information quality and to discover new applications. The power of microarray analysis lies in the ability to compare large sets of genes in different tissues or conditions to identify pathways and regulatory networks. Building upon the successful foundation of Cambridge Healthtech Institute's Fifth Annual Lab-on-a-Chip and Microarrays, the critical topic of Informatics and Microarray Data Analysis completes the picture. The meetings are a must-attend event for biological researchers, drug developers, diagnosticians, engineers, statisticians, bioinformaticists, database developers, and computer software designers. Each discipline (topic) contributes to a successful team effort and like the microarray must be measured as a whole.
