2005 SYMPOSIUM
Computational Challenges in Systems Biology
Keynote: Nathan Myhrvold, Ph.D., Intellectual Ventures, LLC
Systems biology is a new field and is continually changing. These changes pose new computational challenges on an unprecedented scale, which were addressed at the symposium by a distinguished group of scientists, all experts in the field of computational biology.
2004 SYMPOSIUM
Emerging Technologies and Systems Biology
Sunday, April 25 and Monday, April 26
Keynote: Ron Davis, Ph.D., Stanford University, recognized for his pioneering contributions to genomic technologies
Irving Weissman, M.D., Stanford University
Speakers represented the areas of quantitative genetics, proteomics, imaging, nanotechnology, metabolomics, and computation. Guided by the philosophy that technology can revolutionize biological discovery — this symposium examined emerging technologies and their role in the exploration of new frontiers in biology and medicine in the 21st century.
2003 SYMPOSIUM
Systems Biology Approaches to Diagnosis and
Prevention of Human Disease
Keynote: Joe Goldstein, M.D., Ph.D., 1985 Nobel laureate, recognized for his contributions to understanding heart disease
The systems approach to disease will play an integral role in ushering in a new type of medicine over the next 10-20 years — moving us from a medicine that is largely reactive to a predictive, preventive and personalized medicine. This symposium explored these frontiers of systems approaches to human diseases.
2002 SYMPOSIUM on SYSTEMS BIOLOGY
Keynote: Sidney Brenner, Ph.D., University of California, Berkeley
Held in March of 2002, ISB's first symposium brought together a distinguished group of scientists to discuss progress in technologies for capturing biological information and shared insights on the new paradigm referred to as systems biology — a revolutionary approach to conquering biological complexity and understanding how biological systems function.
The symposium took place in conjunction with the official grand opening of the Institute's new 65,000-square-foot facility and events marking the Institute's rapid growth and success.
