DESCRIPTION:This workshop is open to postdocs in Cambridge\, including cand
 idates from University and affiliated institutions\n\nComputer models are 
 increasingly used by researchers as well as pharmaceutical industry to inv
 estigate molecular mechanisms disease initiation\, progression and therapy
 . Systems modelling of biochemical pathways deregulated in disease conditi
 on offers mechanistic insights into the pathology\; helps to elucidate me
 chanisms behind dug action and predict dose required for treatment and the
 reby greatly facilitates fundamental research and drug discovery. Such mod
 elling requires background in both molecular biology and mathematics. This
  workshop will train postdocs from life science and mathematics to communi
 cate and work together to learn to build and analyse computational models 
 using user-friendly open source software. Participant will explore selecte
 d computational models from a recent publication\, freely available in Bio
 Models repository ([www.ebi.ac.uk/biomodels/](https://www.ebi.ac.uk/www.eb
 i.ac.uk/biomodels/)). \n\nThe one-day workshop includes scientific talks 
 from 3 distinguished speakers who will showcase how modelling is useful in
  fundamental research as well as pharmaceutical industry\, a tutorial sess
 ion on modelling of normal and disease pathways using simulation software\
 , COPASI\, and an extended afternoon hands-on training workshop / group pr
 oject. Prior knowledge on systems biology modelling not essential.\n\nThis
  course is free to attend and funded by the Office of Postdoctoral Affairs
 \, University of Cambridge.
