The First Annual EITC Workshop on Bioinformatics and Biomedical Research (EITC-Bio 2008)

Princeton University, New Jersey, USA
June 7, 2008

The First Annual EITC Workshop on Bioinformatics and Biomedical Research (EITC-Bio 2008) will be held at the Friend Center, Princeton University on June 7, 2008.  Following the Bioinformatics track of the Emerging Information and Technology Conference (last year's program available at http://eitc2007.xwiki.com/xwiki/bin/download/Main/Program1/prog_07.pdf), EITC-Bio focuses on the current research and development frontiers in both academia and industry.  This year we will invite leading scientists to present and discuss how the synergy of bioinformatics and biomedical science may further our understandings in biology and medicine, and faciliate our combat against diseases.  The full-day event covers latest advances in various topics including computational biology, systems biology, cancer, immunology, and high-throughput screening.

Please check the workshop website (http://dev.eitc.org:8080/Plone/conferences/eitc-bio-2008) for the workshop program and information on travel, accommodation, and registration.
