Scope of the Workshop

With latest developments in technology vast amount of various type of biological information is being made available at an affordable cost. Consequently, there is now a growing demand for utilizing such information both in general terms as well as in personalized medicine. Systems Biology, an emerging field in applied biomedical and biological sciences, is now addressing the issue of painting a holistic picture at system level (such as at the level of cell, tissue of organism itself). Systems Biology is an interdisciplinary field that encompasses advances from Biotechnology, Bioinformatics, Genetics, Pharmacy, various fields in Computer Science such as Soft Computing, Graph Theory, Simulation and Data Mining. Such an understanding can then be applied to finding how various biological components work together to create and sustain a working System. We are organizing a workshop in this exciting area to provide hands-on experience to interested participants from academia and industry in a few aspects related to the upcoming area of System Biology.
