1003958AkayThe biological sciences have become more quantitative and information-driven science since emerging computational and mathematical tools facilitate collection and analysis of vast amounts of biological data. Complexity analysis of biological systems provides biological knowledge for the organization, management and mining of biological data by using advanced computational tools. The biological data are inherently complex and non-uniform and collected at multiple temporal and spatial scales. The investigations of complex biological systems and processes require an extensive collaboration between biologists, mathematicians, computer scientists and engineering to improve our understanding of complex biological process from gene to system. The main objective of this summer school is to expose undergraduate and graduate biological science and bioengineering students to the relatively new approaches of Engineering Better Medicines, Personalized Medicine, Systems and Synthetic Biology. This summer school will be helpful, also, to students in computer science and mathematics who are interested in pursuing research in biology, bio-molecular engineering 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 the Engineering Better Medicines, Personalized Medicine, Systems and Synthetic Biology. In addition to these lectures, the summer school will employ 2 two-hour panel discussion, with active participation of undergraduate and graduate students, focused on Engineering Better Medicines and Advances in Biomedical Engineering Research and Education in the World. The summer school will stimulate further interdisciplinary research and collaborations among engineers, mathematicians, computer scientists, and medical researchers, and will help in identifying new, challenging directions in complex biological science and bioengineering research. This project will support the travel of 12 senior undergraduate students and graduate students s and five summer school faculty for the International Summer School on Biocomplexity from System to Gene to be held in Istanbul, Turkey on July 1-7, 2010.

1003958 Akay由于新兴的计算和数学工具促进了大量生物数据的收集和分析，生物科学已经成为更加定量和信息驱动的科学。生物系统的复杂性分析通过使用先进的计算工具为生物数据的组织、管理和挖掘提供生物学知识。生物数据本身就很复杂和不统一，而且是在多个时间和空间尺度上收集的。对复杂生物系统和过程的研究需要生物学家、数学家、计算机科学家和工程师之间的广泛合作，以提高我们对从基因到系统的复杂生物过程的理解。这个暑期学校的主要目标是让生物科学和生物工程专业的本科生和研究生接触到工程更好的药物，个性化医学，系统和合成生物学的相对新的方法。这个暑期学校也将有助于那些有兴趣从事生物学，生物分子工程和生物工程研究的计算机科学和数学学生，因为暑期学校提供了对生物科学基本挑战的特殊见解。暑期学校使用讲座，面向生物科学的学生，由专家教师，并将重点放在工程更好的药物，个性化医疗，系统和合成生物学。除了这些讲座，暑期学校将采用2个两小时的小组讨论，与本科生和研究生的积极参与，重点是工程更好的药物和生物医学工程研究和教育的进展在世界。暑期学校将促进工程师，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的新的，具有挑战性的方向。 该项目将支持12名高年级本科生和研究生以及5名暑期学校教师参加将于2010年7月1日至7日在土耳其伊斯坦布尔举行的从系统到基因的生物复杂性国际暑期学校。
