Subject: COMBINE 2019: 10th Computational Modeling in Biology Network
Forum, 15 - 19 July 2019, Heidelberg (Germany)

Dear colleagues,

We invite you to attend COMBINE 2019, the 10th Computational Modeling
in Biology Network Forum:

== 15 - 19 July 2019, Heidelberg (Germany) ==

hosted by the Heidelberg Institute for Theoretical Studies (HITS)

Registration and abstract submission are now open:
http://co.mbine.org/events/COMBINE_2019

The "Computational Modeling in Biology" Network (COMBINE) is an
initiative to coordinate the development of the various community
standards and formats in the life sciences, with special focus on
systems biology, systems medicine, synthetic biology and related
fields. COMBINE 2019 will be a workshop-style event with contributed
and invited talks in the morning sessions and interactive parallel
breakout sessions on specific topics in the afternoons, as well as
poster sessions. The first day (July 15th) will be a scientific
colloquium day with keynote lectures and invited talks from renowned
speakers, as well as lightning talks selected from the submitted
poster abstracts. Contributed talks will be selected from the
submitted abstracts and some authors will be invited to submit a full
paper manuscript for a special issue of the Journal of Integrative
Bioinformatics (JIB) on specifications of standards in systems and
synthetic biology.
