Preliminary Program subject to change
BEC301 Genomics, Proteomics and Metabolomics Approaches for Modifying Cellular Processes
OverviewSystems biology promises to play an important role in future efforts to engineer cell behavior and understand complex phenotypes under process conditions. The session will focus on new methods for obtaining system-wide or population-wide information as well as new applications of systems-biology methods for modifying pathways, engineering cellular traits, or monitoring cell physiology, among others.
