Bridging the gap from
Applied Research to Industrial Solutions
ConfErence
Life Science Computing Conference 2008
In partnership with System@tic and Medicen
Friday 28th November 2008 - "Maison des Polytechniciens" - 75007 Paris
Computational as well as Knowledge Management methods are now integrative components of innovative drug discovery strategies. Industrial impact is significant and need to be discussed with top researchers to exchange research results and address industrial issues, with a particular emphasis on applications in large-scale data generation and systems biology.
Pharma Industry specialists and European Researchers will present and discuss around Information Technology bottlenecks related to Knowledge Management and Bioinformatics, as well as innovative concepts and emerging potential solutions.
INRIA invites you to come and contribute to this important debate and help shape thinking in relation to Pharma Industry competitiveness and the driving role of an innovative Life Science Computing sector.
