Across both academia and industry\, he has consistently advanced the translation of science into medicine using computational sciences. In his academic career in Australia and at King’s College London\, he developed innovative computational approaches to human metabolism\, hypoxia\, and respiratory physiology. His teams pioneered methods for modelling metabolic and transcriptomic data\, applying these to diverse clinical contexts including respiratory disease\, diabetes\, hypertension\, Parkinson’s disease\, and critical illness. In industry\, Lindsay founded one of the first pharmaceutical data science divisions at GSK\, embedding machine learning and data science into every stage of the discovery pipeline. As CTO of Relation Therapeutics\, he has raised over $200M\, creating one of the most significant TechBio companies rooted in scientific translation (including forging a landmark platform multi billion dollar collaboration with GSK). His role on the Scientific Advisory Board of the Schmidt Centre at the Broad Institute of Harvard and MIT further reflects his international collaborative reach\, engaging with leading global scientists at the intersection of AI and life sciences. His publication record—over 40 papers in top biomedical journals (NEJM\, JAMA\, PNAS) and premier AI/ML venues (NeurIPS\, ICML\, ICLR)—is exceptionally rare\, demonstrating dual impact across medicine and computational science. He was recently elected a Fellow of the Academy of Medical Sciences. \n\n\n\n\nKaroline Faust\nTitle: Top-down and bottom-up exploration of alternative community types in the human gut microbiome.Bio: Karoline Faust is an Associate Professor at KU Leuven who heads the Lab of Microbial Systems Biology\, which focuses on investigating microbial community dynamics in silico and in vitro. In particular\, her team is studying interactions between human gut bacteria and the resulting dynamics with synthetic communities in controlled conditions. In addition\, the team develops new tools for the analysis of microbiome data\, specifically the analysis of microbial networks. The group’s work is thus situated at the intersection of bioinformatics\, systems biology\, and microbial ecology.Abstract: The human colon is home to a diverse microbial community\, the gut microbiome\, which impacts the host’s health and well-being. The composition of the gut microbiome varies across persons\, forming distinct groups known as enterotypes\, which have been linked to differences in host characteristics and behavior such as diet. However\, these environmental factors do not explain observations of transient perturbations leading to community shifts\, which persist even after the perturbation ceased. In my talk\, I will discuss multi-stability as an alternative hypothesis to explain enterotypes. I will present simulations and in vitro experiments that support the idea that alternative community types observed in the gut can be interpreted as different states of a multi-stable community. Investigating the causes behind alternative community types is relevant\, since they affect the interpretation of microbiome data. In particular\, multi-stability implies that different gut microbial community compositions can be due to past perturbations rather than current differences between hosts.Affiliation: Molecular Bacteriology Unit (Rega Institute)\, Department of Microbiology\, Immunology and Transplantation\, KU Leuven \n\n\n\n\nRegistration\n\n\n\nRegister here\n\n\n\nDeadline: 21/10-26 \n\n\n\nDDLS Annual Poster Prize\n\n\n\nThe DDLS Poster Prize encourages PhD students and postdoctoral researchers to present high-quality work in data-driven life science.

SUMMARY:DDLS Annual Conference 2026 workshops
DESCRIPTION:During the second day of the DDLS Annual Conference 2026 held at Aula Magna at Stockholm University participants will have an opportunity to attend one of the workshops. The workshops are directed at researchers in data-driven life science in all career stages. \n\n\n\nPlease note that each workshop has a limited number of seats\, on the first come first served basis. Those registered after the limit is reached will be placed on a waiting list (and get invited to register if a spot becomes available). The workshops will take place in various rooms of the main venue of the conference – Aula Magna at Stockholm University. The workshops start at 13:30 and last for up to 2 hours. Coffee/tea and fika will be served during the workshops. \n\n\n\nFeel free to email datacentre@scilifelab.se with any questions about the workshops. \n\n\n\nWorkshops\n\n\n\nWorkshop 1. How to use LLMs to present results from your research project as a web application\n\n\n\nHeld by: team members at SciLifeLab Data Centre\, TBA \n\n\n\nWhere and when: November 10\, 2026 at 13:30-15:30\, room Spelbomskan (Frescativägen 6 Stockholm) \n\n\n\nParticipants: max 30 \n\n\n\n\nRegistration\n\n\n\n\nDescription: In case of many research projects\, there is a need to present results not only as a traditional conference or journal paper but also as an interactive web-based tool that can be used by the readers or collaborators to e.g.\, explore the project data as interactive dashboards\, test out performance of a machine learning model\, input own arbitrary parameters in a simulation tool\, etc. Building such web applications for research projects has become rather easy with the help of large language model based tools such as ChatGPT\, Mistral\, Claude\, etc. This means that researchers can build and share web applications for their research projects without learning Python for web in depth (i.e. only using scientific Python knowledge). In this workshop\, we will demonstrate a few examples of where a web-based application can be built to present the results. Subsequently\, we will show how to package the resulting application and make it available to collaborators or general public through a URL using a SciLifeLab hosting service. Participants can follow along on their own laptops and either use our examples or build web-based applications for their own research projects during the workshop. We will be using a SciLifeLab hosted LLM tool during this workshop so that no data is shared with commercial companies. \n\n\n\nParticipants will need to bring a laptop to this workshop to be able to fully participate. \n\n\n\nWorkshop 2. Public hosting of Shiny apps: hands-on workshop\n\n\n\nHeld by: Arnold Kochari (SciLifeLab Data Centre) \n\n\n\nWhere and when: November 10\, 2026 at 13:30-15:30\, room Polstjärnan (Frescativägen 6 Stockholm) \n\n\n\nParticipants: max 30 \n\n\n\n\nRegistration\n\n\n\n\nDescription: Researchers often create R Shiny applications as part of their projects and want to publish them as research output – as analysis tools with a graphical interface\, as supplementary materials for publications\, in order to make annotation easier\, etc. In order to make Shiny apps available to the collaborators or general public\, they need to be hosted somewhere and have a URL. We will start this workshop by giving an overview of what it means to create and publish Shiny apps as researcher in terms of institutional and funder requirements. We will then take a look at different hosting options for Shiny apps. During the hands-on part\, we will focus on packaging Shiny apps for hosting as Docker images. Together with the participants\, we will step-by-step package and publish an example Shiny app or the participants’ own Shiny app. If you are a researcher with an existing Shiny app you’d like to host\, or if you plan to build a Shiny app in the future\, this workshop is for you. If you already have a Shiny app you would like to host\, bring it\, and we will help you with it. \n\n\n\nExpected outcomes: After this workshop\, the participants will both have an understanding of working with Shiny apps within research projects in a Swedish university context and have practical knowledge about public hosting of Shiny apps. \n\n\n\nParticipants will need to bring a laptop to this workshop to be able to fully participate.

SUMMARY:Extreme food risk analytics (Horizon Europe)
DESCRIPTION:Tony Lindgren \n\n\n\nNBIS and SciLifeLab Data Centre arrange an open SciLifeLab AI Seminar Series aimed at knowledge-sharing about Artificial Intelligence and applications in the Life Science community. The seminar series is open to everyone. The seminar is run over Zoom on the third Friday of the month during academic terms\, typically between 10 and 11 am\, with approx. 45 min presentation and 15 min discussion. \n\n\n\nWhen: November 20\, 10:00-11:00 \n\n\n\nWhere:  Zoom http://meet.nbis.se/ainw \n\n\n\nSpeaker: Tony Lindgren \n\n\n\nSenior Lecturer\,. Head of the Systems Analysis and Security Unit\, Department of Computer and Systems Sciences (DSV)\, Stockholm University \n\n\n\nAbstract \n\n\n\nI will present an overview of the research project\, Extreme Food Risk Analytics (EFRA) and also more deeply present some of the contributions made by Stockholm University within this setting. \n\n\n\nThe aim of the project was to increase food safety for European citizens. The project acknowledges that there is a wide array of data sources holding crucial information about the food that we eat. The problem is that these sources are heterogeneous – and sometimes hidden. In the project we explored how data can be mined\, aggregated and analyzed using AI. Not taking full advantage of this wealth of public and private data comes at a great cost: Despite best efforts and modern techniques\, consumers world-wide still get sick from contaminated foodstuff and food companies suffer huge economic and legal penalties from product food recalls. \n\n\n\nEFRA’s core ambition was to overcome these boundaries by exploring novel\, experimental and promising approaches in extreme data mining\, aggregation\, and analytics technologies. By recognizing and collecting this wealth of heterogeneous data\, scattered throughout the internet\, and convert it into a “universal language” of high-quality risk food data\, EFRA will be able to train AI-models to proactively provide risk mitigation measures (based on predictive awareness of short- and long-term risks) with an explainable\, secure\, sensitive\, accurate\, trustworthy\, fair and green manner\, before occurrence of potential food safety hazard. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nAbout the speaker: The speaker is an associate professor at the Department of Computer and Systems Sciences (DSV)\, Stockholm University. In 2006 he received his Ph.D. degree in computer and system sciences. He has worked both in academia and industry since 2008\, he is the inventor of numerous patents and the author of numerous scientific articles. His research is aimed at exploring machine learning in general but has a special interest in using data-driven methods for predictive maintenance problems. During his time at Scania\, Dr. Lindgren worked on applying his research to solve practical problems such as the maintenance optimization of Scania heavy trucks. Since 2019\, Tony Lindgren has been the head of the Systems Analysis and Security Unit at DSV\, Stockholm University. \n\n\n\nTo stay updated\, you can join our email list by contacting ai-network@scilifelab.se. \n\n\n\n\nJoin Seminar

SUMMARY:Mechanistic Modelling in Pharmacology\, Physiology\, and Neuroscience
DESCRIPTION:Understanding complex biological systems requires more than data\, it demands mechanistic insight. This conference highlights how mechanistic models can integrate clinical and experimental data with computational approaches. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe volume and complexity of life science data are growing at an unprecedented pace. While computational tools are increasingly used to structure and analyze these data\, there remains a critical gap in our ability to understand the data in a mechanistic and physically realistic way. Bridging this gap is essential for uncovering the fundamental principles that govern the function of molecules\, cells\, organs\, and entire organisms. \n\n\n\nMechanistic models play a central role in this effort and are key to advancing applications such as the development of new pharmaceuticals and improved clinical interventions. However\, progress is often hindered by the lack of a shared language between experimental scientists\, clinicians\, and computational researchers. \n\n\n\nThis conference will bring together experts from these fields to explore state-of-the-art tools and methodologies\, discuss how they can be effectively applied\, and foster stronger integration across disciplines. By promoting collaboration and mutual understanding\, the meeting aims to accelerate progress in pharmacology\, physiology\, and neuroscience. \n\n\n\n\nClick here to Register\n\n\n\n\nRegistration deadline October 25 \n\n\n\nPreliminary Program\n\n\n\n8:30 Registration opens \n\n\n\n9:00-12:15 Morning session: Molecules and Cells \n\n\n\nOpening – Fredrik Elinder \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nJan Ellenberg – Imaging the molecular processes of cell division across scales\n\nProfessor\, Director of SciLifeLab \n\n\nThe rapid development of new imaging technologies allows unprecedented insights into the molecular machinery inside living cells and organisms. For the first time\, light and electron microscopy have molecular sensitivity and resolving power in situ\, and\, if used together\, can connect structural detail with molecular dynamics of the whole cell. Aided by machine learning driven image analysis powered by open sharing of image data\, this provides unprecedented opportunities for new insights into the molecular mechanisms that drive life’s core functions at the scale of the cell. \n\n\nI will present the progress we have made to study one of life’s most fundamental functions\, cell division\, by mapping the dynamic protein network\, assembly of individual protein complexes and genome re-folding that drive it. Our work has studied cell division in human cancer cells and early mammalian embryos using advanced cross-scale imaging methods\, including light-sheet\, quantitative fluorescence correlation spectroscopy (FCS)-calibrated\, super-resolution and correlative light and electron microscopy. The quantitative integrated molecular data that these new technologies deliver\, allow us to better understand how the molecular machinery functions in space and time to ensure faithful cell division and prevent the errors that underlie congenital disease\, infertility and cancer. \n\n\n\n\n\nLucie Delemotte – Title TBA\nSciLifeLab fellow\, KTH Royal Institute of Technology \n\n\n\nFocus TBA \n\n\n\n\nBjörn Forsberg – Direct estimation of cryo-EM fields to control estimation of biological function\nDDLS Fellow\, Linköping University \n\n\n\nLearning molecular variability from cryo-EM data relies on strict manual control of correlated variables\, or the use of general ML frameworks that have to learn the correlative variation in addition to estimating it. This presents a complexity trade-off that is prone to bias in either modality\, preventing maximal use of current datasets. Here we present an approach that seeks to parameterize 3D cryo-EM reconstructions in maximally interpretable ways\, based on general causative mechanisms\, that can then be recast to provide explicit learning objectives through an explicit model. This seeks to minimize the bias incurred by specifying ad-hoc mechanistic models\, and efficiently regularize general learning frameworks. \n\n\n\n\n10:15-10:45 Coffee \n\n\n\nErik Lindahl – Title TBA\nProfessor Stockholm University\, Linköping University and KTH Royal Institute of Technology\, Director of National Academic Infrastructure for Super­computing in Sweden (NAISS) \n\n\n\nFocus TBA \n\n\n\n\nFredrik Heintz – From Language to Knowledge and Back Again\nProfessor\, Linköping University\, WASP Graduate School Director \n\n\n\nFocus TBA \n\n\n\n\nJuliette Griffie- Title TBA\nDDLS fellow\, The Computational Microscopy for Cell Biology (CMCB) laboratory\, Stockholm University \n\n\n\nFocus TBA \n\n\n\n\nPanel Debate\nFocus TBA \n\n\n\n\n12:15-13:30 Lunch \n\n\n\n13:30-16:45 Afternoon Session – System Biology \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nPetra Ritter – Trustworthy Digital Brain Twins\nProfessor\, Charité University Medicine Berlin \n\n\n\nThis talk explores the integration of mechanistic modeling\, multiscale physiological data\, and artificial intelligence to construct personalized “Digital Brain Twins” for neuroscientific research and clinical applications. It addresses the computational\, methodological\, and ethical challenges in ensuring these virtual replicas remain dynamic\, precise\, and robustly validated across spatial and temporal scales. Ultimately\, the presentation highlights frameworks for building trustworthy in silico models capable of predicting disease progression\, evaluating targeted pharmacological interventions\, and advancing personalized medicine in neurology and neuroscience. \n\n\n\n\nGunnar Cedersund – M4-HEALTH – hybrid mechanistic and machine learning digital twin models as a basis for a new ecosystem for health\nAssociate Professor\, Linköping University \n\n\n\nFocus TBA \n\n\n\n\nHenrik Jörntell – How brain circuitry operation emerges from nested closed loop interactions through the body\nProfessor\, Lund University \n\n\n\nOne of the hottest scientific topics today is how does the brain actually work and\, in the era of artificial intelligence perhaps even more\, what is ‘intelligence’ really? Here we will address these questions to illustrate the path towards arriving at a general conceptualization of the brain circuitry operation that emerges from the fundamental dynamics of neuron interactions\, i.e. from neurophysiological observations. In this ambition\, there is also a need to explain the resulting roles fulfilled by the different structural subsystems of the nervous system. Fundamental differences with current AI systems is one outcome. Consequences relative to the wider literature are; (i) the function of any one neuron alter depending on context; (ii) in this mode of operation predictive neural activity emerges as a trivial by-product without any assumptions of architectural specializations. This underscores the need for integrated neurophysiological work\, as the broader field is still far away from understanding the physiological infrastructure that underlies the emerging computational architecture of the brain. \n\n\n\n\n14:30-15:00 Coffee \n\n\n\nMorten Grunnet – Neuroscience Drug discovery and AI – Opportunities and limitations\nVice President and Head of Neuroscience at Lundbeck & Affiliate Professor at University of Copenhagen \n\n\n\nHow AI and data-driven approaches are currently being integrated into neuroscience drug discovery\, and how these approaches can be combined with mechanistic understanding across different biological scales – from molecular and cellular mechanisms to circuits\, systems and ultimately clinical phenotypes. A perspective on where the main opportunities\, but also the current limitations\, of AI and mechanistic modeling in pharmaceutical research. \n\n\n\n\nEduard Kerkhoven – From pathway maps to predictive models: Human-GEM and human metabolism\nSenior Researcher\, Chalmers University of Technology \n\n\n\nMetabolic pathway maps are familiar\, but they cannot tell you what happens when a gene is lost or a nutrient runs short. Genome-scale metabolic models turn the same biochemistry into something computable and testable against real perturbations. I will introduce Human-GEM\, the community model of human metabolism\, show a few applications across tissues\, organs and disease\, and suggest that models of this kind become more valuable as omics data accumulate\, by giving those measurements a mechanistic structure to be interpreted against. \n\n\n\n\nJeanette Hellgren-Kotaleski – Title TBA\nProfessor\, KTH Royal Institute of Technology \n\n\n\nFocus TBA \n\n\n\n\nPanel Debate\nFocus TBA \n\n\n\n\nConcluding Remarks – Per Petersson & Johan Wessberg \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nConfirmed Panelists \n\n\n\nSiv Andersson\, Professor\, Uppsala University\, Knut and Alice Wallenberg Foundation \n\n\n\nGunnar Schulte\, Professor\, Karolinska Institutet\, The Swedish Research Council \n\n\n\nPartners \n\n\n\nSciLifeLab & the National Committee for Pharmacology\, Physiology and Neuroscience of the Royal Academy of Sciences \n\n\n\nOrganizing committee \n\n\n\nFredrik Elinder\, Professor of Molecular Neurobiology\, Electrophysiologist\, Linköping University \n\n\n\nJohan Wessberg\, Professor and Principal Investigator Department of Physiology / Neurophysiology\, Gothenburg University \n\n\n\nPer Petersson\, Professor in the field of Neurophysiology\, Umeå University

DESCRIPTION:Please save the day for the 2027 workshop on the theme “Toward a national imaging informatics strategy” – hosted by DDLS Cell & Molecular Biology. \n\n\n\nMicroscopy is facing ever-increasing challenges: Datasets are reaching terabyte sizes\, computing requires software designed for GPUs\, and there is an increased demand for smart microscopy (“AI in the loop”).  \n\n\n\nVision & Aim: \n\n\n\nFind a way to make microscopes and image data AI-ready – particular focus on large images and image collections \n\n\n\nSolution: \n\n\n\n1. Bring all developers in Sweden together\, produce a solution that matches user needs and is deployable on Swedish HPC infrastructure \n\n\n\n2. Make HPC infrastructure image-ready (S3!) \n\n\n\n3. Form long-term collaborations among the top scientific software developers \n\n\n\nStakeholders: \n\n\n\nSciLifeLab AI strategy \n\n\n\nBIIF (BioImage Informatics Facility) \n\n\n\nNAISS\, local HPC facilities & AI factory \n\n\n\nSciLifeLab Serve / Data Centre \n\n\n\nTarget Group: This event aims to gather stakeholders (power users\, software developers\, HPC and core facility managers) in identifying present and future challenges (first day)\, followed by a 2-day hands-on hackathon and/or focus sessions to begin tackling the most pressing issues. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nConfirmed Speakers\n\n\n\nJoel Luhti (BioVisionCenter\, U.
