International Summer School on Biocomplexity from Gene to System

PI：MetinProposal ID：1303460由于新兴的计算和数学工具促进了对大量生物数据的收集和分析，生物科学已经成为一门更加量化和信息驱动的科学。生物系统的复杂分析通过使用先进的计算工具为生物数据的组织、管理和挖掘提供了生物学知识。生物数据本质上是复杂的、非均匀的，并且在多个时间和空间尺度上收集。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各种复杂生物过程的理解。智力优势：暑期班的主要目标是让本科生和研究生接触到纳米生物信息基因(NBIC)技术和转化研究的相对较新的方法。这个暑期班对有兴趣从事生物学、生物分子工程和生物工程研究的计算机科学和数学专业的学生也很有帮助，因为暑期班提供了对生物科学基本挑战的特殊见解。更广泛的影响：暑期班使用由专家教师面向生物科学专业学生的讲座，并将重点放在纳米生物信息认知(NBIC)技术和翻译研究：机遇和挑战。除了这些讲座，暑期班还将安排两个两小时的小组讨论，暑期班的参与者将积极参与，重点是工程更好的药物和世界生物医学工程研究和教育的进展。暑期班将促进工程师、数学家、计算机科学家和医学研究人员之间进一步的跨学科研究和合作，并将有助于在复杂的生物科学和生物工程研究中确定新的、具有挑战性的方向。

PI: MetinProposal ID: 1303460The biological sciences have become a more quantitative and information-driven sciences since emerging computational and mathematical tools facilitate the collection and analysis of vast amounts of biological data. Complex 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, 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 engineers to improve our understanding of the various complex biological processes from gene to system. Intellectual Merits: The main objective of the summer school is to expose undergraduate and graduate biological science and bioengineering students to the relatively new approaches of Nano-Bio-Info-Cogno (NBIC) Technologies and translational research. 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. Broader Impacts: The summer school uses lectures, oriented toward biological science students, by expert faculty and will focus on the Nano-Bio-Info-Cogno (NBIC) Technologies and Translational Research: Opportunities and Challenges. In addition to these lectures, the summer school will employ 2 two-hour panel discussion, with active participation by the summer school participants, 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.
