International Symposium on Integrative Bioinformatics (IB2010)
- Date:
- 22 Mar 2010 to 24 Mar 2010
- Location:
- Cambridge, UK
This sixth annual meeting will be held in Cambridge, United Kingdom, on March 22-24, 2010.
Biological data are scattered across thousands of biological databases and hundreds of scientific journals. Current high throughput genomics technologies generate large quantities of high dimensional data. Microarray, NMR, mass spectrometry, protein chips, gel electrophoresis data, Yeast-Two-Hybrid, QTL mapping, gene silencing, and knockout experiments are all examples of technologies that capture thousands of data points, often in single experiments. The challenge for Integrative Bioinformatics is to capture, model, integrate, and analyse these data in a consistent way to provide new and deeper insights into complex biological systems.
This sixth meeting on Integrative Bioinformatics will be of interest to Bioinformaticians, Computer Scientists and others working in, or interested in finding out more about, the developing area of integrative bioinformatics. There will be opportunities to present and discuss methods, theoretical approaches, and their practical applications.
IB2010 is organized by Rothamsted Research, The University of Cambridge and the Leibniz Institute of Plant Genetics and Crop Plant Research (IPK) Gatersleben.
