In the post-genomic era, understanding the molecular basis of complex biological processes requires both new experimental and conceptual approaches. High-throughput analytical methods provide a comprehensive dissection of the regulatory components acting in a biological process in various cellular and model organisms along the evolutionary scale.
Novel techniques such as single cell or single molecule imaging provide unprecedented spatial and temporal resolution in quantitative analysis. However, new computational, mathematical, engineering and physical approaches, are needed to integrate such wealth of experimental information and develop theoretical models that can accurately describe the design principles of biological systems and predict their behavior in a patho-physio-logical context.
SBMC 2008 will present cuttingedge experimental, theoretical and computational approaches to unravel the design principles underlying a wide range of regulatory processes in mammalian cells, including cell organization, metabolic pathways, genetic and signaling networks, tissue morphogenesis and development, and pathogenetic mechanisms.
