The post-genome era is characterised by a major expansion in the available biological data. This meeting will discuss current challenges in bioinformatics including the interpretation of genome sequences, the analysis and prediction of protein structure and function, understanding the results of high throughput methodologies, modelling networks of pathways and interactions, and the integration of these components to study systems biology.
