CompCellBio workshop - modeling with COPASI and VCell – June 26-28, 2023

[Pedro Mendes]

Dear Biologists interested in Modeling,

The 24th Annual Workshop on Computational Cell Biology will take place
June 26-28, 2023 at the Center for Cell Analysis and Modeling at UConn
Health (Farmington, CT).

An intense in-person, hands-on course is designed to help cell
biologists and biophysicists to develop computational models of their
experimental systems. We will teach how to use VCell (http://vcell.org),
COPASI (http://copasi.org) and SpringSalad (https://vcell.org/ssalad)
software to develop spatial and non-spatial models using deterministic,
stochastic, agent- and rule-based modeling approaches.

The course includes introductions to software, presented by developers
and by modelers, followed by interactive hands-on sessions on designing
your models, running simulations and analyzing results. The number of
course participants will be limited to allow extensive one-on-one
interactions with instructors and scientific discussions among the
participants

There is no registration fee, but to be admitted please email the
following information to Dr. Michael Blinov bli...@uchc.edu by May 17:
your name, institution, lab head (if you are a student), and 1-2 page
proposal outlining your research project and explaining how you think
VCell, COPASI and/or SpringSalad will advance it. This info will allow
us to determine if our software is applicable to your project.

Meals will be provided. Contact us to inquire about limited travel funds
available to promote diversity. Please spread the word (the announcement
is attached).
