[Alexander Pico]

Last Call for Abstracts: Network Biology SIG at ISMB 2011 in Vienna

Meeting Date: July 15th
Abstracts Due: April 8th

The Network Biology (NetBio) SIG will focus on two major areas: (1) the
development of network-related tools and resources, and (2) the application
of network analysis and visualization in the study of biology, synthetic
biology and medicine. The meeting will provide a unique interface between
tool developers and users in the field of network biology. Through these
complementary lenses, the SIG will bring into focus the current state of the
field, its future promise and how to get there.
