Fall NIH Conference on Biological and Biomedical Computing
Friday, October 12, 2007
On-site registration: 8:30am - 9:00am
Presentations: 9:00am - 2:00pm
Ebling Symposium Center, room 1220 Microbial Science Building
One of the interdisciplinary research strengths of UW-Madison is biological computing; with investigators representing diverse departmental disciplines from cell biology, genetics, and zoology to computer science and biomedical engineering. The new CIO office has identified biological research computing as a major priority and is committed to serving a formal role in facilitating new collaborations and technology grants.
As the first step in this, the CIO is pleased to announce a Fall NIH Workshop with three speakers from NIH (National Institutes of Health) to discuss and present specific grant opportunities in the area of research computing and research vision of NIH in this area. There will be opportunities for discussion with the speakers and lunch will be provided with a poster session.
This conference is about grant opportunities in biological and biomedical computing and the vision that NIH has for these fields both in terms of current and future opportunities and expectations for infrastructure at major research universities. However, the conference should appeal to scientists and technologists as the talks will be about specific research computing challenges and possible opportunities in these areas (both in terms of grants and other collaborative resources).
Speakers include Grace Peng – Program Director, Division of Discovery Science and Technology,
National Institute of Biomedical Imaging and Bioengineering (NIBIB)
Two other speakers to be announced.
Online registration encouraged due to limited seating and luncheon arrangements, at:
