Synopsis: /High-throughput biology (genomics, proteomics, 
transcriptomics, metabolomics, etc.) is producing //
//massive amounts of data that in different ways can help us understand 
biology. A major challenge is//
//to turn this Big Data into knowledge that generates novel biological 
insights. Diverse types of data //
//can be analysed together to build models of the complex interplay 
between genes, proteins, and other //
//molecular entities. The current knowledge of signalling and regulatory 
pathways is still at a very //
//rudimentary level, and generally there is incomplete understanding of 
the molecular mechanisms that //
//when perturbed cause common diseases. By bringing together the 
world’s top scientists in the field//
//we want to give all participants insights into the most novel 
techniques and results. The aim of the //
//symposium is also to stimulate beneficial collaborations between 
network and systems biology groups//
//in the international scientific community and various research groups 
in Sweden. /

anyone interested in attending the symposium may register on the 
website. Please note that pre-registration is required. Since the number 
of seats is limited, registrations will be accepted on a first come, 
first serve basis. The symposium is free of charge.
