Biological networks are critical tools for modeling and analyzing questions in systems biology, and computational network biology has grown into a subfield that combines biology, computer science, and modeling. Scientific workshops are important for researchers to share their work and learn about cutting edge advances in the field, and the Seventh International Workshop on Computational Network Biology: Modeling, Analysis, and Control (CNB-MAC 2022) will be held in Chicago, Illinois, on August 7, 2022. This award will support conference travel for at least eight graduate students to CNB-MAC. Students will gain firsthand knowledge of recent advances in computational network biology, which can have a long-lasting impact on their own research career. Students will also have the opportunity to present and discuss their own research findings, receiving feedback and mentoring from established researchers. New this year, CNB-MAC will have events to foster networking and collaboration among attendees. Attending CNB-MAC through travel support from this award will provide graduate students valuable opportunities to engage with the computational network biology community.The Seventh International Workshop on Computational Network Biology: Modeling, Analysis, and Control (CNB-MAC 2022) will be held in Chicago, Illinois, on August 7, 2022. The workshop will be held alongside ACM’s Conference on Bioinformatics, Computational Biology, and Health Informatics, which is the flagship conference of the ACM Special Interest Group in Bioinformatics. CNB-MAC aims to provide an international scientific forum for presenting recent advances in computational network biology and boost the awareness of the importance of rigorous mathematical modeling in transforming big biomedical data into reproducible and meaningful scientific knowledge. CNB-MAC solicits original research papers that report new research findings that have not been published elsewhere, highlight abstracts that present advances in the field that have been reported in recent journal publications, and poster abstracts for rapid dissemination of the latest research results in computational network biology. CNB-MAC workshops are an excellent venue for young researchers working in computational network biology to share ideas and get involved in deep scholarly discussions, thereby ultimately contributing to the advancement of the field of computational network biology. This award will support travel to CNB-MAC for at least eight graduate students, providing essential networking and professional development opportunities for the travel awardees. Travel support can significantly reduce the financial burden for students to attend the conference, especially for students from institutions where their mentors are unable to pay for conference registration and travel.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

生物网络是系统生物学中建模和分析问题的关键工具，计算网络生物学已经发展成为结合生物学，计算机科学和建模的一个子领域。 科学研讨会对于研究人员分享他们的工作和了解该领域的前沿进展非常重要，第七届计算网络生物学国际研讨会：建模，分析和控制（CNB-MAC 2022）将于2022年8月7日在伊利诺伊州芝加哥举行。该奖项将支持至少八名研究生到CNB-MAC的会议旅行。 学生将获得计算网络生物学最新进展的第一手知识，这可能对他们自己的研究生涯产生长期影响。学生也将有机会介绍和讨论自己的研究成果，从既定的研究人员接受反馈和指导。今年，CNB-MAC将举办活动，促进与会者之间的交流和合作。通过该奖项的旅行支持参加CNB-MAC将为研究生提供与计算网络生物学社区互动的宝贵机会。第七届计算网络生物学国际研讨会：建模，分析和控制（CNB-MAC 2022）将于2022年8月7日在伊利诺伊州芝加哥举行。 该研讨会将与ACM的生物信息学，计算生物学和健康信息学会议一起举行，这是ACM生物信息学特别兴趣小组的旗舰会议。CNB-MAC旨在提供一个国际科学论坛，介绍计算网络生物学的最新进展，并提高人们对严格数学建模在将大生物医学数据转化为可复制和有意义的科学知识方面的重要性的认识。CNB-MAC征集报告其他地方未发表的新研究成果的原始研究论文，突出最近期刊出版物中报道的该领域进展的摘要，以及快速传播计算网络生物学最新研究成果的海报摘要。CNB-MAC研讨会是从事计算网络生物学的年轻研究人员分享想法并参与深入学术讨论的绝佳场所，从而最终为计算网络生物学领域的进步做出贡献。该奖项将支持至少八名研究生前往CNB-MAC，为旅行获奖者提供必要的网络和专业发展机会。旅行资助可以大大减轻学生参加会议的经济负担，特别是对于来自导师无法支付会议注册和旅行费用的机构的学生。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
