HUM-MOLGEN events: Symposium Integrative Bioinformatics

HUM-MOLGEN -> Events -> Meetings and Conferences

February 22, 2003

Bielefeld University Bioinformatics Department, Bielefeld, Germany
August 4th - 5th, 2003

Molecular biology produces huge amounts of data in the post-genomic era. Among them, there is data describing metabolic mechanisms and pathways, structural genomic organization, patterns of regulatory regions; proteomics, transcriptomics, and metabolomics data. On one hand, analysis of these data is determined essentially by the methods and concepts of computer science; on the other hand, it depends on a range of biological tasks solved by researchers. Currently, there are about 400 database informational systems and various analytical tools available via the Internet and directed at solving various biological tasks. The challenge we have is to integrate these list-parts from genomics and proteomics at novel levels of understanding. Integrative Bioinformatics would be this new area of research using the tools of computer science and electronic infrastructure applied to Biotechnology. These tools will also represent the backbone of the concept of virtual cell.
This symposium addresses primarily the scientists working in this emerging field of Integrative Bioinformatics and, hence, would discuss the corresponding problems and present concepts. Besides invited talks, we would like to invite all researchers interested in these problems and active participation in this symposium. The number of participants will be restricted.
