DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): NIH-NIGMS support is requested to defray participant costs for a special Topical Conference entitled "Systems Biology and Metabolic Engineering," which will focus on the recent advances in bioinformatics, computational biology and functional genomics. This one-day conference (November 17, 2003) will be held in San Francisco, CA as part of the 2003 Annual Meeting of the American Institute of Chemical Engineers (AIChE). The requested support will be used for the travel expenses of 8 invited speakers and 4 graduate students. The speakers will be from both academia (8) and industry (2), with a diverse, interdisciplinary scientific background, who are leaders and innovators in the areas of Systems Biology, Metabolic Engineering, and Functional Genomics. The two main goals of the topical of the conference are to educate the chemical engineering community in the exciting developments and opportunities in the areas of systems functional genomics and systems biology, and to bring together chemical engineers with the genomic scientists, molecular biologists, and computational biologists who would have been highly unlikely to attend. This will promote interdisciplinary interactions and collaborations that will benefit the development of the field of systems biology and functional genomics. is will promote idea exchange and collaborations across disciplines. The two sessions of the topical conference are: "Bioinformatics and Functional Genomics I: Focus on Complex Biological and Biomedical Systems", and "Bioinformatics and Functional Genomics II: The Role of Metabolic Engineering in Disease Marker Identification". The conference will also provide 4 fellowships to graduate students for attending the conference.

描述（由申请人提供）： 要求NIH-NIGMS提供支持，以支付参加题为“系统生物学和代谢工程”的特别专题会议的费用，该会议将重点讨论生物信息学、计算生物学和功能基因组学的最新进展。这次为期一天的会议（2003年11月17日）将在加利福尼亚州旧金山弗朗西斯科举行，作为美国化学工程师协会（AIChE）2003年年会的一部分。所要求的支助将用于支付8名应邀发言者和4名研究生的旅费。演讲者将来自学术界（8）和工业界（2），具有多元化的跨学科科学背景，他们是系统生物学，代谢工程和功能基因组学领域的领导者和创新者。 会议主题的两个主要目标是教育化学工程界在系统功能基因组学和系统生物学领域的令人兴奋的发展和机会，并将化学工程师与基因组科学家，分子生物学家和计算生物学家聚集在一起。这将促进跨学科的互动和合作，这将有利于系统生物学和功能基因组学领域的发展。促进跨学科的思想交流和合作。主题会议的两个部分是：“生物信息学和功能基因组学I：关注复杂的生物和生物医学系统”，和“生物信息学和功能基因组学II：代谢工程在疾病标志物识别中的作用”。会议还将提供4名研究生奖学金参加会议。
