The 5th annual SysMod Meeting at the #ISMB2020 conference is coming up in Montréal We proudly present our keynote speakers Douglas Lauffenburger Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) Carolyn Cho Merck Paul François McGill University Submit your abstract at iscb.org/ismb2020-submi… We are looking forward to seeing you!

We found a promising target to combat COVID-19 using an integrated computer model of the novel Corona virus SARS-CoV-2 and human alveolar macrophages. 👉 csbnc.informatik.uni-tuebingen.de/index.php/s/jd… This could be worth trying it out experimentally. #COVID19 #coronavirus #CoronaOutbreak #sysbio

We have a fully funded #PhDStudentship available @nuigalway investigating the role of the #microbiome in #Alzheimers #disease using #metabolic (#Cobra,) #modeling and #Statistics. Join us in #Galway, #Ireland ! Please RT. For more info: thielelab.eu/open-positions The COBRA Toolbox

Great community effort!

We are compiling a list of studies that used #Cobra #modeling (#FBA) to investigate microbe-microbe or microbiome level metabolic interactions. So far, we have identified 91 papers. Please help us to complete the list: tinyurl.com/y5n5bofl. Add your study. Thanks. Pls RT.

Are you a highly motivated, creative Master student interested in pursuing a PhD on computational modelling of host-microbiome interactions in the context of ageing? If so, apply to this fully funded PhD position with Molecular Systems Physiology Group by 13th May 2021. thielelab.eu/open-positions

📣The submission deadline for #ISMBECCB2021 is approaching. Spread the word about your inspiring research on Computational Modeling of Biological Systems and submit an abstract by May 6, 2021, to the SysMod track via iscb.org/ismbeccb2021-s….
