[BioC] Announcement: Otto Warburg International Summer School on Networks and Regulation, August 26 - September 4, 2005, Berlin, Germany

[Wolfgang Huber]

Dear colleague,

we are happy to announce the

Otto Warburg International Summer School and Workshop
                       on
             Networks and Regulation.

          August 26 to September 4, 2005

                 Berlin, Germany		


The aim of this program is to bring together researchers and
students from different backgrounds (including molecular
biology, bioinformatics, biological physics) to discuss
Networks and Regulation, a topic of high current interest on
the interface between statistical physics and biology.  We plan
an integrated program, which is focused on high-level training
during the first days and leads to topical research seminars in
the second part.

We will discuss ideas and approaches both from physics and
biology.  The goal is to promote a joint effort and establish a
common ground to approach problems in this emerging field of
research. The schedule will leave sufficient time for
discussion and interaction among students and lecturers.

Confirmed speakers:

David Arnosti - East Lansing
Alvis Brazma - Hinxton
Harmen Bussemaker - New York
Wolfgang Huber - Hinxton
Terence Hwa - San Diego
