The Jena Centre for Bioinformatics (JCB) is a network of about 25 research groups from different departments of the Friedrich Schiller University of Jena, the Leibniz Institute for Natural Product Research and Infection Biology (HKI), the Leibniz Institute for Age Research (FLI), the Max Planck Institute for Chemical Ecology, the University of Applied Sciences Jena, and several companies (e.g. BioControl Jena and SIRS-Lab).
The objectives of this network are to concentrate and to strengthen interdisciplinary bioinformatics research, to connect groups that use theoretical and experimental approaches, and to pinpoint applications of bioinformatics and systems biology in different areas, e.g. medicine and biotechnology. Bioinformatics provide valuable tools for virtually all biological disciplines and are an integral part of modern biological research.
An important part of the JCB’s activities is the organisation of and with invited external speakers. Moreover, several workshops take place each year.
ICSB 2010 Workshop “Integration of OMICS Datasets into Metabolic Pathway Analysis”
, a workshop dedicated at the Integration of OMICS Datasets into Metabolic Pathway Analysis will be held in Edinburgh, Scotland on October 15, 2010 in the Edinburgh International Conference Centre. The aim of this workshop is to discuss issues arising in the integration of experimental data into the analysis of metabolic networks. It is… Continue reading
The International Workshop 2010: “Systems Biology for Industry: Dynamics and regulation of the metabolic balance in Escherichia coli” will be held on 7-8 October 2010 in Jena.
This Workshop will be the 8th in a series of annual International Workshops held in Jena and organised by the research group “Systems Biology/Bioinformatics” at the HKI. It is dedicated to the dynamic modelling of the overflow metabolism of Escherichia coli that limits both biomass yield and the quality of biotechnologically important products. Continue reading
