0901207Michael A HensonThe relatively new field of systems biology has emerged to establish a bridge between molecular level information and systems level understanding. The novelty of systems biology lies in the emphasis on analyzing complexity in networked biological systems using integrative rather than reductionist approaches. By its very nature, systems biology is a highly interdisciplinary field that requires the effective integration of scientists and engineers with different technical backgrounds and the interdisciplinary training of students to meet the rapidly evolving needs of academia, industry, and government.The Third International Conference on Foundations of Systems Biology in Engineering (FOSBE 2009) sponsored by the CACHE Corporation will address emerging challenges and opportunities in systems biology. FOSBE 2009 will take place August 9-12, 2009 at the Inverness Hotel and Conference Center in Denver, Colorado, continuing the two-year cycle of the FOSBE conference series, with successful conferences previously held in Santa Barbara, California (August, 2005) and Stuttgart, Germany (September, 2007). It is believed that the FOSBE conference series fills an important void within system biology conference offerings, with considerably more emphasis on bioengineering approaches, interdisciplinary education, and industrial applications than larger series such as the International Conference on Systems Biology (ICSB). The primary objectives of FOSBE 2009 will be to provide an in-depth review and critical assessment of the current state-of the-art, to discuss current and future needs of research, education and training, and to identify new directions, opportunities, and challenges in systems biology.FOSBE 2009 is expected to have strong attendance from academia, industry, and government. The conference setting will provide an ideal opportunity for systems biology researchers, practitioners and policy makers to exchange ideas and establish collaborations. A large group of graduate and post-doctoral students is expected to attend the conference and present research results in the two poster sessions. A unique feature of FOSBE 2009 will be a training workshop for graduate students, post-doctoral fellows, young professors and industrial researchers. The objective of the day long workshop is to provide tutorial introductions to several important areas of systems biology. One hour lectures will be given by eight leading systems biology researchers and practitioners. The workshop will be held Sunday morning and afternoon before the opening reception.

[9012 . 07] michael A henson系统生物学这个相对较新的领域已经出现，它在分子水平的信息和系统水平的理解之间建立了一座桥梁。系统生物学的新颖性在于强调使用整合而不是简化的方法来分析网络生物系统的复杂性。就其本质而言，系统生物学是一个高度跨学科的领域，需要具有不同技术背景的科学家和工程师的有效整合，以及对学生的跨学科培训，以满足学术界、工业界和政府快速发展的需求。由CACHE公司主办的第三届工程系统生物学基础国际会议（FOSBE 2009）将讨论系统生物学中出现的挑战和机遇。FOSBE 2009将于2009年8月9日至12日在科罗拉多州丹佛市的因弗内斯酒店和会议中心举行，延续了FOSBE系列会议的两年周期，之前在加利福尼亚州圣巴巴拉（2005年8月）和德国斯图加特（2007年9月）成功举行的会议。人们相信，FOSBE系列会议填补了系统生物学会议产品中的一个重要空白，与诸如国际系统生物学会议（ICSB）之类的大型系列会议相比，它更加强调生物工程方法、跨学科教育和工业应用。FOSBE 2009的主要目标将是对当前最先进的技术状况进行深入的审查和批判性评估，讨论当前和未来的研究、教育和培训需求，并确定系统生物学的新方向、机会和挑战。FOSBE 2009预计将有来自学术界、工业界和政府的强有力的出席。会议将为系统生物学研究人员、从业者和政策制定者提供一个理想的机会来交流思想和建立合作。预计将有大批研究生和博士后参加会议，并在两次海报会议上展示研究成果。FOSBE 2009的一个独特之处将是为研究生、博士后研究员、年轻教授和工业研究人员提供培训研讨会。为期一天的研讨会的目的是为系统生物学的几个重要领域提供教程介绍。一个小时的讲座将由八位领先的系统生物学研究人员和实践者提供。研讨会将于开幕酒会前的周日上午和下午举行。
