SBE's 2nd International Conference on Biomolecular Engineering
 |
January 18-21, 2009 |
Conference Chairs:
-
Ryan Gill, University of Colorado
-
Sachdev Sidhu, University of Toronto
This conference brings together researchers using quantitative approaches to advance the understanding and application of biology at the molecular level. These approaches are contributing to the development of analytical, diagnostic, and therapeutic strategies that are directly relevant to public health. The meeting will also stimulate efforts to integrate these approaches across the molecular, cellular, and higher scales of biological complexity in a single-track Gordon-style conference format that includes hotel accomodations and most meals.
Conference topics include:
-
Engineering therapeutic proteins
-
Improving efficacy, folding, delivery, and stability
-
Enzyme engineering and industrial process applications of engineered proteins
-
Design and synthesis of RNA and small molecules as diagnostic and therapeutic reagents
-
Reagents for detection and quantification of biomolecules
-
Molecular nanobiotechnology
-
Evolutionary and combinatorial approaches to metabolic pathway and strain improvement
-
Live-cell imaging and single-molecule imaging
-
Intracellular and intercellular signaling pathways and networks
-
MEMS, microfluidics, and microscale analyses of molecular and cellular function
-
Computational approaches to engineering cell function and therapeutic interventions
-
Genomic, proteomic, and metabolomic profiling of cell function
-
Novel high-throughput methodologies for whole-cell profiling
-
Design of synthetic biological circuits and pathways
-
Advances in bioinformatics
-
Multi-scale modeling and computational methods for systems biology
