Conference: Keystone Symposia meeting on "Omics Meets Cell Biology"; to be held May 8-13, 2011, in Alpbach, Austria

基因组学/蛋白质组学/代谢组学“组学”方法对基本生物过程的系统级研究贡献越来越大。此外，活细胞成像，定量显微镜和计算基础设施允许表型分析在前所未有的规模。本次会议的目的是(1)提供展示前沿“组学”科学进展的机会；(2)推动传统分子/细胞生物学、生物化学和遗传学领域利用“组学”资源，采用集成系统方法解决复杂的生物学问题；(3)促进建立网络和建立关键合作的机会。Keystone专题讨论会是一个非营利组织，为连接跨学科和国际科学界提供了理想的环境。更广泛的影响：本次研讨会将汇集代表“组学”技术，细胞生物学，结构生物学，化学，遗传学，生物信息学和计算生物学的领先专家，制定和讨论新的策略，以最大限度地影响“组学”革命对生物系统和过程的理解。组织者努力展示学生、博士后和年轻研究人员的工作，并在组织层面邀请女性和少数族裔作为演讲者和参与者。

Genomic/Proteomic/Metabolomic "Omics" approaches contribute increasingly to the systems-level interrogation of fundamental biological processes. In addition, live-cell imaging, quantitative microscopy, and the computational infrastructure allow for phenotypic analyses at unprecedented scales. The objectives of this conference is to (1) provide an opportunity for show-casing cutting-edge "Omics" scientific advances; (2) motivate the traditional molecular/cell biology, biochemistry and genetics community to embrace the "Omics" resources and to adopt an integrated systems approach to solve complex biological problems; and (3) foster opportunities for networking and establishing key collaborations. Keystone Symposia is a non-profit organization that offers an ideal setting for connecting interdisciplinary and international scientific communities. Broader Impacts: This symposium will bring together the leading experts representing "Omics" technologies, cell biology, structural biology, chemistry, genetics, bioinformatics and computational biology to develop and discuss new strategies to maximize the impact the "Omics" revolution on the understanding of biological systems and processes. The organizers make a significant effort to showcase the work of students, postdoctoral fellows and young investigators and include women and minorities at the organizational level, as speakers and participants.
