INTERNATIONAL SYNTHETIC & SYSTEMS BIOLOGY SUMMER SCHOOL - SSBSS 2017

University of Cambridge, UK

July 17-21, 2017

Organized by:
Cambridge Systems Biology Centre - University of Cambridge, UK
University of Cambridge, UK

*--------------------------------------------------------*

Early Registration Deadline: May 10, 2017 

*--------------------------------------------------------* 

SCOPE:

The synthetic & systems biology summer school provides MSc. students, PhD students, post-docs, academics and industry professionals with an intense learning experience on the theory and applications of modern synthetic & systems biology. Over the course of one week, a panel of internationally renowned experts of the field will offer lectures and tutorials covering basic as well as advanced topics.

An open session – breaking abstracts will give participants the opportunity to present their own work in progress in 15 minutes.

ADDRESSED TO:

In principle, graduate students, doctoral students and postdocs will be typical profiles of participants. However, there are no formal pre-requisites for attendance in terms of academic degrees. Since there will be a variety of levels, specific knowledge background may be assumed for some of the courses. SSBSS 2017 is also appropriate for more senior academics, industry personnel and practitioners who want to keep themselves updated on recent developments and future trends. All will surely find it fruitful to listen and discuss with major researchers, industry leaders and innovators.
