Dear all,
please find enclosed a PhD position to work on the evolution of green algal seaweeds, a collaborative project between The Phycology Research Group (O. De Clerck - UGent BE) and Comparative & Integrative Genomics lab
(K. Vandepoele - UGent/VIB BE).
Thanks to forward to other potentially interested candidates.
best regards,
Klaas

The "Computational Modeling in Biology" Network (COMBINE) is an
initiative to coordinate the development of the various community
standards and formats in systems biology and related fields.
The fourth annual COMBINE meeting is hosted by the U900 Sysbio group and
will take place at the Institut Curie, from Monday September 16 through
Friday Sep. 20, 2013. COMBINE is a workshop-style event with oral
presentations, posters and breakout sessions.
The first day of the meeting will be dedicated to presentations of
modelling approaches in biology either not currently covered by our
efforts, or using them in new or innovative ways. Oral presentations
will be selected from the submitted abstracts. Please note that
attending this day is free of charge (registration is mandatory, though).

Lorentz Training Workshop: Interdisciplinary Life Sciences
Date: 2013 October 21-25 (Monday-Friday)
Location: Snellius Buiding (2nd floor), Lorentz Center, Niels Bohrweg 1, 2333CA Leiden, The Netherlands
Organisers: Roel van Driel (UvA), Roeland Merks (CWI), Jaap Molenaar (WUR)
Contact: Jaap.Molenaar(a)wur.nl
Webpage: www.ncsb.nl/workshop/InterdisciplinaryLS
Registration: www.lorentzcenter.nl/lc/web/2013/598/application.php3?wsid=598&venue=Snelli…
Deadline: 2013-08-23
The aim of this training workshop is to bring together 25 young researchers from the life sciences and to train them in modelling of biological systems based on ‘learning by doing'.
We aim at about 25 student participants forming teams of 4 (or 5) members. Each team will work on one specific modelling challenge during the workshop.
Possible topics might be: Sensitivity analysis of a synthetic mammalian oscillator, Modelling of networks regulating flowering time in plants, Modelling of blood vessel growth, and Modelling of cell division.
