ABSTRACT
 
The 7th International Symposium on Networks in Bioinformatics (ISNB 2010)
is scheduled on 22 and 23 April 2010 and is likely to continue its success
from previous years in bringing different disciplines together to discuss
ongoing research in bioinformatics and biology of networks. The focus of 7th
International Symposium on Networks in Bioinformatics will be on biological
networks such as metabolic networks, signal transduction pathways and genetic
regulatory networks. This year we also aim to include topics like modeling
of cells, tissues, gene regulation, from DNA to transcriptional behaviour
and biomineralisation. We also want to invite researchers working on gene
networks in plants (e.g. Arabidopsis), model organisms such as Drosophila
and organisms with a relatively simple and basal body plan such as sponges
and scleractinian corals.  Understanding of these networks is crucial for
understanding molecular and cellular processes in the organism or system under
study. This field is subject of lively research and both experimental and
computational approaches are used to elucidate the biological networks. The
bioinformatics of biological networks involves a broad range of research
and approaches. Research includes the identification of regulatory elements
in DNA, developmental biology, genome context analysis, modelling and
simulation of pathways, reconstruction of pathways from experimental data,
visualization of pathways, and the representation of pathways in database,
graphs and mark-up languages.
 
Please note that we have extended the deadline for poster submission
to 1-4-10!
