Gene regulation is a very complex process with many of its aspects being the subject of current research in molecular biology. As regulatory networks are complex objects composed of thousands of genes with their expression varying across hundreds of tissues and conditions studying gene regulation is practically impossible without mathematical and computational models. Our aim is to bring international experts on the subject of computational modeling of gene regulation to give a broad overview of different approaches to this and related problems. The School is primarily addressed to graduate students, both MSc and PhD levels. We expect the school participants to have a strong quantitative background (computer science, mathematics, physics) and to have deep interest in modeling biological processes. If space permits, we plan to also accept students with background in biology or chemistry, whose main interest is specialization in computational biology and bioinformatics.
