Big data analytics is transforming biology and medicine by allowing researchers to extract more information and knowledge from rapidly growing diverse types of data. This India-EMBO Symposium focuses on the translational interface of big data with biomedicine at various scales ranging from microbes to societies. The meeting, other than summarizing the potential of such applications and practical challenges therein, will specifically discuss the different requirements and the need for calibrating big data analytics to the larger purpose of the "actionable information." A computational model for prioritizing drug candidates that will undergo further pre-clinical and clinical testing, vastly differs in terms of error tolerance, from the use of large datasets to form public health policy evidence. Specifically, the "actionability" of any insight would be guided by pragmatic concerns and ethics, which vary between applications. Thus, the emphasis will be to form a well reasoned articulation ...

Several RNA viruses constitute the majority of emerging and re-emerging pathogens, however, there is very little focus on research into the biology and pathogenesis of RNA viruses in India. Studies on epidemiology and disease burden, risk factors, the immune response to RNA viruses, circulating virus strains and virus evolution, animal models of disease, antivirals and vaccines are strikingly absent. Emerging RNA viruses such as Zika virus and Crimean-Congo haemorrhagic fever virus are a matter of grave concern to India. Therefore, this symposium will play a key role in bringing together national and international RNA virus experts from diverse areas on one platform to guide the future of RNA virus research in India. This symposium will provide impetus on laying a strong foundation for both the fundamental and translational aspects of RNA virus biology with a focus on epidemiology, immune response, virus evolution and vaccine trials. ...

The main objective of this EMBO India Symposium is to bring together a collection of top international and Indian researchers from interdisciplinary backgrounds that are leaders in this field, to discuss the key current biological and methodological questions, to foster new interdisciplinary collaborations with Indian researchers from quantitative backgrounds, and to inspire young Indian researchers and students to enter this field and pioneer new methods. This EMBO India Symposium will focus on all aspects of gene regulatory dynamics from analysis of regulatory sequence motifs, transcription factor-DNA interaction, local chromatin dynamics and epigenetic modifications, RNA dynamics at the level of transcription and post-transcriptional processing, to 3D dynamics of chromatin and the resulting gene regulatory dynamics on daily and development time scales. ...

This conference will be one of the big International meetings exclusively dedicated to Microscopy, Instrumentation, Techniques and Applications in Life Sciences and Materials Sciences. We hope that the conference will be extremely useful to researchers working in this field as people with diversified backgrounds are expected to attend the conference and making the event truly interdisciplinary in nature. The conference is to emphasize the recent advances in Microscopy, Instrumentation, Techniques and Applications in Life Sciences and Materials Sciences. This symposium will bring together a panel of highly-accomplished experts in the field of Microscopy. Talks will encompass basic studies and applications and will address topics of novel issues, difficulties, and breakthroughs in the field of Microscopy in Life Sciences and Materials Sciences. The conference will feature keynote addresses, a number of plenary sessions, invited talks and contributed lectures focusing on specific tenets of Microscopy. Additionally, there will be several poster sessions, and awards for four best poster presentations. ... [Information of the supplier]
On behalf of the Asia Pacific Bioinformatics Network (APBioNet) and organizing partners, it is our great honour to invite you to join the 17th International Conference On BioInformatics (InCOB-2018), which will be held on 26-28 September, 2018 at Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU), New Delhi. Since 2002, InCoB has grown in its second decade to become one of the largest bioinformatics conferences in the Asia-Pacific region. This annual conference showcases the latest research and technologies in all areas of bioinformatics, and in recent years has been attended by practitioners from both biology fields and computing backgrounds in the Asia-Pacific region. As in the past, papers in the conference will be published in international, peer-reviewed journals, such as BMC Bioinformatics, BMC Systems Biology, BMC Genomics, Bioinformatics and PeerJ. Oral and poster presenters will have the opportunity to deposit their slides/posters with F1000 Posters. ... [Information of the supplier]
