Call for transnational research projects! A subset of 10 ERASysBio partners will fund a 2nd transnational joint call to stimulate interdisciplinary research throughout ERA in this field. Deadline for pre-proposal submission is 5th January 2009. For the call text and detailed instructions, please follow the link |
 | Strategy Paper Systems biology is an emerging field with different possible approaches in different contexts. Intrinsic to systems biology is, however, its interdisciplinary nature and the common aim of achieving the quantitative understanding of dynamic biological processes through the use of mathematical and statistical analyses to integrate biological data in order to develop predictive models of biological behaviour…..

 | ERASysBio is a transnational funding initiative to support the convergence of life sciences with information technology & systems science. ERASysBio brings together 16 ministries and funding agencies from 13 countries to coordinate their national research programmes in systems biology and agree on a common European research agenda. The partners at the EB6 meeting October 2007... |

SysMO is the pilot call under the umbrella of ERASysBio. SysMO provides funding for research on “Systems Biology in Micro-organisms”. It is financed by DE, AT, NL, NO, UK and ES. Eleven transnational research projects involving 91 groups are funded under this initiative with financial national contributions from all partners and an overall investment of €28M. www.sysmo.net |
 | The discipline of systems biology aims at understanding the dynamic interaction between components of a living system or between living systems. Systems biology is an approach by which biological questions are addressed through integrating experiments with computational modelling, simulation and theory, in iterative cycles. Modelling is not the final goal, but is a tool to increase understanding of the system, to develop more directed experiments and finally allow predictions. |
