Annual Centers for Systems Biology Meetings

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

Center for Complex Biological Systems (UC Irvine)

Systems Biology of Stem Cells Symposium

May 24 - 25, 2010, Beckman Center of the National Academies of Sciences and Engineering, Irvine, CA

The Systems Biology of Stem Cells Symposium is devoted to state-of-the art research at the intersection between systems biology and stem cell biology. Topics will include stem cell genomics and epigenomics; gene regulatory networks underlying pluripotency; feedback regulation of proliferation and lineage progression; and cancer stem cells. A diverse set of experimental, mathematical and computational methodologies will be represented among the featured talks. Meeting activities will include a poster session and a banquet on May 25th. For further information about attending or participating in the symposium, please contact us.

Center for Spatiotemporal Modeling of Cell Signaling

The Fourth Annual q-bio Conference on Cellular Information Processing
August 11 - 14, 2010, Santa Fe, NM

The purpose of the annual q-bio Conference is to advance predictive modeling of cellular regulation. The program emphasizes modeling and quantitative experimentation aimed at understanding and predicting the behaviors of particular regulatory systems, phenomena that manifest themselves in many biological systems, and/or general principles of cellular information processing.

Center for Genome Dynamics (The Jackson Laboratory)

Mouse Evolutionary Genetics Meeting
June 18 - 19, 2009, Chapel Hill, NC

The central theme of this invitation only meeting was the development of the house mouse as a model for evolutionary genetics, including the study of complex traits, phenotypic evolution, and genetic variation. The meeting was supported by the Center for Genome Dynamics at The Jackson Laboratory.

Center for Modular Biology (Harvard University)

The Center organizes yearly systems biology conferences and local systems biology activities through the Council of Systems Biology in Boston.

Cells, Circuits, and Computation 2010: Biophysics in Boston
Friday, January 15, 2010

A day-long conference on biophysics research in the Boston area. There will be two sessions with faculty speakers and one session with graduate student speakers selected from submitted abstracts. The conference concludes with a poster session. The keynote speaker is David Walt of Tufts University.

International Conference: Systems Biology of Human Disease
June 18-19, 2009 Boston, MA

A two-day international conference held at Harvard Medical School in Boston, MA, featuring platform presentations on the topics of Cellular Responses and Decisions, Systems Biology in Drug Discovery, and Genomics in Systems Biology, as well as a poster session.

Microfluidics Technologies in Biomedical Research Symposium
January 15, 2009 Boston, MA

April 4, 2008 Boston MA

Center for Systems Biology

Institute for Systems Biology Annual Symposium 2010: Systems Biology & Global Health
April 18-19, 2010 Seattle, WA

The Institute for Systems Biology is pleased to present its 9th annual systems biology symposium, Systems Biology & Global Health, to be held in Seattle on April 18 and 19, 2010. The symposium will provide a setting for some of the world’s most influential researchers in the fields of global health and systems biology to take part in a dialogue regarding current research/discoveries and their potential impact on human health.

Association for Women in Science (AWIS)

The Center hosts an annual networking event in support of women in the science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) fields. The event focuses on providing networking opportunities for participants and includes research presentations from John Aitchison, Center Associate Director, Dr. Aimee Dudley, Faculty and Dr. Amy Schmidt, Postdoctoral Fellow. In 2009, based on feedback from 2008, the AWIS event has been redesigned to give junior researchers the experience to present their research to a broad and multidisciplinary audience.

Annual ISB Retreat

Foremost the three day Annual Retreat provides an informal venue to communicate freely across the organization about strategy, research and challenges. In addition it provides an opportunity for all types of students, scientific collaborators and start-up companies, to participate in a combination of talks and break-out sessions.

Duke Center for Systems Biology

4th Annual Duke Systems Biology Symposium
October 2, 2009 Durham, NC

The CSB organizes an annual symposium each fall to highlight recent advances in systems biology, and to inform the wider community about the rapidly expanding systems biology research efforts both at Duke and as carried out by nearby colleagues in Durham, Chapel Hill, Raleigh, and throughout Research Triangle Park. Over 200 people have come each of the three years we’ve held the symposium.

Systems Biology Center New York (SBCNY)

The Systems Biology Center New York hosts an annual symposium highlighted by talks given by leading researchers in systems biology.
