Dear Colleagues, Check this out! BioSB still has a few places available in some very interesting courses/events. Be fast if you want to join! * BioSB course: Constraint-based modeling This course will introduce computational modeling of large (genome-scale) metabolic reaction networks through a scalable framework known as constraint-based modeling. Emphasis will be on the usage in both biotechnology and systems biomedicine. Main topics will be fundamental constraint-based modeling methods, omics data integration, multi-scale modeling and microbial community modeling. The course will combine theoretical lectures with tutorial exercises and computational exercises in Python. Where: Wageningen Campus, the Netherlands When: 13 - 17 February 2023 More information and registration>><https://www.dtls.nl/courses/constraint-based-modeling-introduction-and-advanced-topics/> * BioSB course: Knowledge graphs in the life sciences This course aims to teach how to: * Explain Linked Data technologies (Internet, Semantic Web, ontologies, graph databases), standards and recommendations (as URI, XML, RDF, OWL, SPARQL), and their use in forming a Web of Data; * Use Linked Data technologies for retrieving information in the Semantic Web (i.e. use of SPARQL); * Use of existing vocabularies for annotating data and endpoints for finding data for a particular domain; * Understand the FAIR principles and how to apply it to a research project; * Able to convert research metadata into FAIR Linked Datasets. Where: Wageningen Campus, the Netherlands When: 13 - 17 March 2023 More information and registration>><https://www.dtls.nl/courses/fair-linked-data-in-the-life-sciences/> * BioSB Hot Topics Symposium: Evolution in and of Cell Communities Where: O2 building, Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam When: Wednesday 15/02/2022 from 9:30 - 18:00 Registration deadline: 1 February 2023!
