> FOSBE 2012 (http://fosbe2012.org/ ) is an international conference
> that addresses emerging challenges and opportunities in systems
> biology with a particular emphasis on engineering approaches and
> applications. Recent advances in biotechnology have lead to a massive
> increase in the quality and quantity of data available to bioscience
> researchers that was almost unimaginable 10 years ago. The
> availability of these “Omic” datasets have highlighted the requirement
> for novel computational approaches to extract new information,
> integrate this information and lead to new knowledge. Furthermore,
> advances in computational approaches are required for the integration
> of these data into formal biological models, with the ultimate aim of
> full understanding of mechanisms that are either difficult to obtain
> experimentally or counter-intuitive. From these foundations, the
> interdisciplinary field of Systems Biology has emerged with the
> primary aim of effectively integrating science, mathematics and
> engineering to address complexity in biology, using multi-dimensional
> datasets and to train future interdisciplinary graduates. The FOSBE
> series of conferences uniquely focus on integrative engineering
> approaches to Systems Biology.
> Please share this e-mail with colleagues and interested parties. 
> The people of Tsuruoka, the organising committee of FOSBE 2012, and I
> look forward to you coming to this exciting meeting.
