Submit an abstract today for the Synthetic and Systems Biology Summer
School & Workshop (SSBSS 2017):

https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=ssbss2017

The Synthetic and Systems Biology Summer School is the leading Summer
School for sharing the state-of-the-art developments and achievements
made in the fields of synthetic and systems biology.

The School and Workshop will take place July 17-21 at the Robinson
College, University of Cambridge, England, UK.
The School and the Workshop is chaired by Massimo Gulisano and
Giuseppe Nicosia, University of Catania - Italy, and Steve Oliver,
University of Cambridge, England, UK. Submissions not accepted for
talks will also be considered in the poster sessions.

SSBSS 2017 will focus on advances in the science and technology
emerging from the fields of synthetic biology, systems biology, genome
synthesis and genetic engineering.
The School and the Workshop will highlight new tool development, as
well as the application of these tools to diverse problems in
biotechnology, computational medicine, molecular biology including
therapeutics, industrial chemicals and biofuels, natural products, and
agriculture.

If you are engaged in above cited topics that you believe can impact
the state of the science and technology you must consider submitting.


GOAL
Given the rapidity with which this field moves, it is challenging for
both newcomers and experts alike to stay updated with all of the
latest advances.
The goal of this summer school and workshop is to bring together
scientists from academia and industry with diverse but relevant
expertise in a setting
conducive to discussion of new results and potential collaborative efforts.
Invited talks will cover a wide range of topics ranging from
fundamental basic science through to applications.
Attendees of this workshop will have the opportunity to hear about the
latest findings in this fast-paced field and to establish
collaborations with scientists who have complementary expertise.


TOPICS
Sessions integrate the recent achievements made in the fields of
synthetic biology, systems biology, biochemical engineering, synthetic
enzyme, evolutionary engineering,
integrated omics, tools and methods, and emerging techniques,
healthcare, biofuels, chemicals and materials, biologics, microbial
and mammalian systems, and other disciplines and applications.

Submissions should be related to the following areas of synthetic
biology, systems biology, genome and genetic engineering:

Applications of Synthetic & Systems Biology
Biological Design Automation
Computational/Mathematical Modeling and Design
Computer Aided Design
Directed Evolution
Designing and Writing Genomes
DNA Synthesis, Assembly, and Sequencing
