WHERE NYU Abu Dhabi Conference Center (A6) WHO Center for Genomics and Systems Biology Open to the Public

Registration is now closed.

System biology aims to identify and understand the mechanisms that transform genomic information into cellular and organismal behavior using a holistic perspective. In their own research programs, the organizers of this symposium apply cutting-edge genomic technology and systems-level approaches to areas including biodiversity, the complexity of neuronal systems, chemical & functional genomics, cells, development and diseases, and synthetic biology. The internationally distinguished speakers invited for this year's symposium reflect the diverse research areas. This is the ninth NYUAD Center for Genomics and System Biology's Symposia and one of the leading symposia on modern biology in the region.
