Bas Teusink

Prof. Dr. Bas Teusink, VU University Amsterdam:

"Our approach is the opposite of engineering. In our case, the system already exists and we need to derive the specifications. Why did evolution select this particular system?"

Chris Evelo

Dr. Chris Evelo, BiGCaT, Maastricht University:

"The semantic web is very promising, but the time has come to make it work on real problems."

Edwin Cuppen

Dr Edwin Cuppen, Genome Biology, Hubrecht Institute / Human Genetics, University Medical Centre Utrecht

"Recognize the opportunities of the day after tomorrow and translate those into a clear vision."

Berend Snel

Dr. Berend Snel, University of Utrecht:

"You have to be a jack-of-all-trades"

Martijn Huynen

Prof. dr. Martijn Huynen, CMBI, UMC St Radboud:

"There is still a large gap between data analysis and quantitative modelling and this is the bottleneck towards real biological understanding."
