Annual Centers Meetings

Each year a meeting is held for the members of the National Centers for Systems Biology:

Annual Meeting of the National Centers for Systems Biology
July 13-14 2009, Bethesda, MD

A key aim of the meeting is to introduce NIH staff to the exciting field of systems biology and the activities of the National Centers for Systems Biology. On the first day of the meeting, PIs (or other senior investigators) will define systems biology in the context of their Center’s work and then provide compelling examples of what they have achieved. Each Center also will have a presentation from a junior investigator. The talks will be followed by a discussion led by a panel of PIs whose purpose is to engage the audience. The second day of the meeting will include a discussion of common activities and community building. Among the topics that will be discussed are (i) common elements of systems biology and possibilities for cooperation, (ii) relevant training opportunities, (iii) coordination of outreach efforts, and (iv) creation of a portal for the Centers and other community activities.
