Second International School in Computational Cell Biology

The role of stochasticity in the modelling and simulation of biological processes

University of Modena and Reggio Emilia

September, 4th 5th 6th 2006

Aims and Scopes

The school is addressed to students and researchers either with an applied mathematics, computer science or engineering background who are interested in cell biology applications or to cellular biologists and biochemists who wish to gain new quantitative insights.
In particular, it will focus on multiscale processes for protein interactions.
