The EMBO Meeting 2010
The European Molecular Biology Organization is having the Annual meeting of 2010 in the city of Barcelona from September 4 to 7. The Meeting will consist on plenary lectures, workshops and the exhibition together with the Poster sessions.
The three plenary lecture sessions will be dedicated to modern evolutionary biology, molecular developmental biology and to the rapidly developing fields related to systems biology, such as network biology, functional genomics and synthetic biology.
A rich selection of topics will be addressed in the 21 workshops during the meeting that will explore different fields from central themes such as cell signaling and division, chromosomal organization, genome stability, cell differentiation and pluripotency, epigenetics and mechanisms of gene regulation to another series of sessions that will explore the new frontiers in molecular biology. These will present research devoted to the analysis on the global genetic makeup of entire bacterial communities (metagenomics), the application of molecular and computational techniques for the engineering of human-designed biological objects (synthetic biology), and the investigation of the inner working of complex genetic and metabolic networks.
The meeting will take place at the Palau de Congressos de Catalunya, situated on the prestigious Avinguda Diagonal in Barcelona. The congress Hall building forms part of the Hotel Rey Juan Carlos I, Business & City Resort, surrounded by beautiful gardens.
