Second Biennial Newcastle Workshop on Statistical Bioinformatics and Stochastic Systems Biology

The Second Biennial Newcastle Workshop on STATISTICAL BIOINFORMATICS AND STOCHASTIC SYSTEMS BIOLOGY will be held on Monday 18th and Tuesday 19th May 2009 at Newcastle University, UK.

This meeting will bring together leading researchers working on the development of new methods in statistical bioinformatics and stochastic systems biology. It will be of interest to statisticians and computer scientists working in this field and also to biologists and others who are interested in the latest developments in inferential and modelling methods for biological data. The emphasis will be on developments in statistical methodology but this is, by its very nature, an interdisciplinary area which depends on collaboration between those with statistical or computational expertise and those with biological expertise. Scientists who would not regard themselves as primarily statisticians but who have an interest in the development of appropriate statistical methodology will be welcome at the meeting.
