Japan q-bio week (Jan/8/2016~Jan/13/2016)

We organize a series of international symposiums and workshops this year from 8/Jan/2016 to 13/Jan/2016 (Japan q-bio week) instead of the annual meeting of the Japanese Society for Quantitative Biology. Most of them will be held as NIG International Symposium 2015. Please check the following pages for each workshop and symposium for more details.

Outline of Japan Q-Bio week

Objective

The Symposiums aim to bring together biologists using various quantitative approaches to reveal new concepts in cell and developmental biology. We have settled three main topics for our symposium, as you may find in the title of the symposium - force, information, and dynamics. Modern biology has progressed mainly through characterizing gene functions. Now, we believe complementary studies on forces, information, and dynamics are critical to reveal new concepts in biology. Quantitative analysis is a common approach for these emerging fields of biology, and we planned to gather researchers to discuss and share their views and approaches.


At the Symposium in Tokyo[1], we will organize oral sessions about three featured quantities and beyond, titled: "Quantity - FORCE -", "Quantity - SYMMETRY -", "Quantity - INFORMATION -", and "Quantities and beyond". We will also have poster sessions with coffee breaks, lunch on the 2nd day, and supper on the evening. In the poster sessions, all general participants may give poster presentations.

At the Symposium in the National Institute of Genetics on Jan 12th and 13th 2016[2], we will have more interactive sessions with the fascinating researchers in the National Institute of Genetics.

Support

All Workshops and Symposiums are provided as the NIG International Symposium 2015. Institute of Industrial Science, the University of Tokyo also supports our activity. We also thank to Dainippon Sumitomo Pharma for their support.
