The integration and application of mathematics, engineering, physics and computer science have been recently used to better understand complex biological systems by examining the structure and dynamics of cellular and organism function. This emerging field called "Systems Biology" has gained tremendous interest among molecular and cellular researchers since it provides a continuous spectrum of knowledge.The main objective of this summer school is to expose undergraduate, graduate, and postdoctoral biological science and bioengineering students to the relatively new approaches of mathematical and computational challenges in Systems Biology to facilitate rapid diffusion of these mathematical and computational tools in the biological sciences. These methods will be helpful, also, to both students and post-doctoral fellows in computer science and mathematics who are interested in pursuing research in biology and bioengineering, since the summer school provides exceptional insights into the fundamental challenges in biological sciences.The summer school uses lectures, oriented toward biological science students, by expert faculty and will focus on biological data mining and knowledge discovery that can be used to understand highly interconnected and complex biological systems. In addition to these lectures, the summer school will employ two 2-hour panel discussions, with active participation of undergraduate, graduate and post-doctoral fellows, focused on future developments in systems biology, computational biology, bioinformatics and molecular biology and engineering. In addition, students will present the results of their projects in a culminating poster session, which will facilitate discussion of both the biology andcomputational approaches. The summer school will stimulate further interdisciplinary research and collaborations among biologists, engineers, mathematicians, computer scientists, and medical researchers, and will help in identifying new, challenging directions in complex biological science and bioengineering research.

数学、工程学、物理学和计算机科学的整合和应用最近被用来通过检查细胞和有机体功能的结构和动力学来更好地理解复杂的生物系统。这个新兴的领域称为“系统生物学”已经获得了分子和细胞研究人员的巨大兴趣，因为它提供了一个连续的知识谱。这个暑期学校的主要目标是暴露本科生，研究生，和博士后生物科学和生物工程的学生在系统生物学的数学和计算的挑战，以促进这些数学和计算的快速扩散相对较新的方法生物科学中的工具。这些方法将是有益的，也，学生和博士后研究员在计算机科学和数学谁有兴趣从事生物学和生物工程的研究，因为暑期学校提供了特殊的见解，在生物科学的基本挑战。暑期学校采用讲座，面向生物科学的学生，由专家教师，将专注于生物数据挖掘和知识发现，可用于了解高度相互关联和复杂的生物系统。除了这些讲座，暑期学校将采用两个2小时的小组讨论，与本科生，研究生和博士后研究员的积极参与，专注于系统生物学，计算生物学，生物信息学和分子生物学和工程的未来发展。此外，学生将在最后的海报会议上展示他们的项目结果，这将促进生物学和计算方法的讨论。暑期学校将促进生物学家，工程师，数学家，计算机科学家和医学研究人员之间的进一步跨学科研究和合作，并将有助于确定复杂生物科学和生物工程研究中新的，具有挑战性的方向。
