Data Driven Systems Biology: Harnessing Big Data and Systems Approaches to Decode Complex Biology
March 24 @ 09:00 – March 25 @ 17:00 CET
In the era of high-throughput technologies and rapidly expanding biomedical datasets, the field of systems biology is undergoing a transformative shift. The Data-Driven Systems Biology conference brings together leading researchers who are leveraging computational, statistical, and systems-level approaches to integrate and interpret complex biological data. This conference will explore how multi-omics, single-cell technologies, and spatial profiling, combined with advanced computational modeling and machine learning, are reshaping our understanding of dynamic biological systems.
The DDLS research area symposia series aims to engage and build a strong national scientific community around the DDLS research themes. Each of the four areas arranges two symposia per year. Everyone interested in data-driven research is welcome to take part. We aim to unite researchers, industry, and healthcare to foster collaboration and advance the frontiers of data-driven life science.
Target Group: The DDLS research area Expert Group in Cell and Molecular Biology invites all interested in Data-driven life science to meet, present, interact, and discuss Imaging in Cell and Molecular Biology.
The event will take place at Life City, Solna, Stockholm, and will include presentations from international and national invited speakers and selected abstracts. The event is free of charge.
Organized by:
Arne Elofsson and Eduardo Villablanca, DDLS Expert Group in Cell and Molecular Biology.
