Systems Biology is concerned with the
system-level study of complex interactions in biological systems and
provides a quantitative systemic approach to understanding complex
biological phenomena. On the other hand, the ultimate goal for the
understanding and modeling of biological systems is at the synthesis and
simulation of biological behaviors and functions, across which
Bioinformatics plays an important underpinning role. Recent progresses
in Bioinformatics and Systems Biology are extraordinarily exciting and
are calling for even broader and further deep-stretching
interdisciplinary research and collaboration.
BSB 2009 aims to provide a premier forum for
stimulating exchange and in-depth discussion of advances, challenges and
emerging areas in Bioinformatics and Systems Biology.
