ISBN 978-80-210-5678-7 http://www.muni.cz/general/events/calendar/33523513 33523513 Tue, 15 May 2012 22:00:00 GMT http://www.muni.cz/general/events/calendar/33082131 33082131 Mon, 14 May 2012 22:00:00 GMT The course, held from May 14 - 18, 2012, will be given by Dr. Tomáš Helikar (University of Nebraska at Omaha, U.S.A.). The objective of the course is to introduce students to the complexity and dynamics of biological processes. Students will learn about how cells sense and process information both at the molecular and "systems" levels. While the first part of the course will center around the basics of molecular biology (e.g., signal transduction and post-translational modifications) and computational modeling, the second (and larger) part of the class will be in the form of hands-on projects that will include building and conducting real time simulations and analyses of virtual cells. Registration (http://www.ncbr.muni.cz/course_helikar_2012/registration.php) is required to attend the course. Please, register as soon as possible - the number of participants is limited by the size of the computer room (i.e. 40 seats). Students of Masaryk University will be given priority. Registration deadline is April 21, 2012. No registration fee is required to attend the course. Students of Masaryk University can get credits for this course if they register it in IS MU (the code of the course will be published soon at this place). http://www.muni.cz/general/events/calendar/32372350 32372350 Sun, 13 May 2012 22:00:00 GMT http://www.muni.cz/general/events/calendar/29763742 29763742 Wed, 29 Feb 2012 23:00:00 GMT http://www.muni.cz/general/events/calendar/27524168 27524168 Mon, 03 Oct 2011 22:00:00 GMT
