We are glad to announce the ECCB 2016 workshop: Network Inference : New Methods and Data ABSTRACT SUBMISSION DEADLINE: May 1st http://www.eccb2016.org/programme/workshops/w2/ Scope This one day session (SIG) will bring together experts from computational biology and machine learning to present recent advances in the development and application of gene regulatory network inference methods, as well as novel emerging data types (such as single-cell, epigenomics ...) suitable for network inference. The SIG will be split into two half day sessions. The first half will focus entirely on novel network inference methods, while the second half will focus on opportunities and challenges arising from new data types. Each session will feature an invited speaker and three short talks. Registration https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=ninf2016 Venue The workshop will take place in the World Forum Convention Centre of Hague, The Netherlands on September 4th 2016 as part of the 15th European Conference on Computational Biology (ECCB 2016). Topics Network Inference Machine learning Biological networks Biological data types NGS Applications of biological network inference Audience The workshop is suitable for wide audience as computational biologists interested in networks inference, computational and experimental biologists, clinicians, plant biologists and anyone who is interested to be exposed to the latest trends and applications of network biology inference from various types of biological data. Organizing Committee: Dr. Anagha Joshi, Roslin Institute, University of Edinburgh, UK. Dr. Tom Michoel, Roslin Institute, University of Edinburgh, UK. Dr. Eric Bonnet, Centre National de Génotypage, CEA, Paris, France.
