Dear biologists with interest in computational modeling,
The 28th in-person Annual Workshop on Computational Cell Biology will take place June 1-3, 2026 at the Center for Cell Analysis and Modeling at UConn Health (Farmington, CT). The course will begin with introductory lessons on modeling techniques (ODE, PDE,
stochastic, spatial stochastic, agent- and rule-based modeling) using VCell (
http://vcell.org/),
COPASI (
http://copasi.org/)
and SpringSaLaD (
https://vcell.org/ssalad).
The remaining time will consist of continuous interactive hands-on sessions using these software applications to help you design your models and perform simulations.
To be admitted please email the following information to Dr. Michael Blinov
bli...@uchc.edu by May 1: your name, institution, lab head (if you are a student), and 1-2 page proposal explaining how you feel VCell, COPASI and/or SpringSaLaD will help or fit in
your research project. This information will allow us to determine if the current implementations of the VCell and COPASI apply to your project.
More information is in the attached flyer - please spread the word!
The Workshop has no registration fee and all meals are supplied. A discounted hotel rate will be available.
