    • April 6th, 2011: International Conference on the Systems Biology of Human Disease, 22-24 June 2011

      Registration is now open for the “International Conference on the Systems Biology of Human Disease,” a three-day conference focusing on mammalian systems biology, particularly as it applies to human disease and therapy.  In addition to talks by invited speakers, SBHD will include two poster sessions and additional talks selected from submitted poster abstracts. Registration and additional information can be found on the SBHD 2011 website.

    • June 10th, 2010: CDP's new sabbatical visitor: Kimberly Jackson

      The CDP Center welcomes its latest faculty sabbatical visitor, Dr. Kimberly Jackson of Spelman College. Dr. Jackson will be here briefly as a Visiting Professor at Harvard Medical School's Department of Systems Biology, and for a longer period next summer.

    • September 30th, 2009: NIH honors CDP investigators

      CDP investigators Linda Griffith and Gaudenz Danuser received the NIH Transformative R01 Award for 2009. The Transformative R01 Award funds bold ideas that have the potential to catapult fields forward.

    • Discrete logic modelling as a means to link protein signalling networks with functional analysis of mammalian signal transduction. (2009) Saez-Rodriguez et al.

      CDP researchers Peter Sorger, Doug Lauffenberger, and colleagues described how discrete logic modeling can be used to generate predictive, cell-type-specific models of mammalian signaling from generic protein signaling networks.

      The Molecular Systems Biology paper has been featured in Nature Biotechnology and in the 2009 DREAM conference, a friendly competition among systems biologists to compare the strengths and weaknesses of ways to model signaling networks.
