1003958AkayThe biological sciences have become more quantitative and information-driven science since emerging computational and mathematical tools facilitate collection and analysis of vast amounts of biological data. Complexity analysis of biological systems provides biological knowledge for the organization, management and mining of biological data by using advanced computational tools. The biological data are inherently complex and non-uniform and collected at multiple temporal and spatial scales. The investigations of complex biological systems and processes require an extensive collaboration between biologists, mathematicians, computer scientists and engineering to improve our understanding of complex biological process from gene to system. The main objective of this summer school is to expose undergraduate and graduate biological science and bioengineering students to the relatively new approaches of Engineering Better Medicines, Personalized Medicine, Systems and Synthetic Biology. This summer school will be helpful, also, to students in computer science and mathematics who are interested in pursuing research in biology, bio-molecular engineering and bioengineering, since the summer school provides exceptional insights into the fundamental challenges in biological sciences. The summer school uses lectures, oriented toward biological science students, by expert faculty and will focus on the Engineering Better Medicines, Personalized Medicine, Systems and Synthetic Biology. In addition to these lectures, the summer school will employ 2 two-hour panel discussion, with active participation of undergraduate and graduate students, focused on Engineering Better Medicines and Advances in Biomedical Engineering Research and Education in the World. The summer school will stimulate further interdisciplinary research and collaborations among engineers, mathematicians, computer scientists, and medical researchers, and will help in identifying new, challenging directions in complex biological science and bioengineering research. This project will support the travel of 12 senior undergraduate students and graduate students s and five summer school faculty for the International Summer School on Biocomplexity from System to Gene to be held in Istanbul, Turkey on July 1-7, 2010.

1003958akay自新兴的计算和数学工具以来，生物科学已变得更加定量和信息驱动的科学，促进了大量生物学数据的收集和分析。生物系统的复杂性分析通过使用先进的计算工具为组织，管理和采矿提供生物学知识。生物学数据本质上是复杂且不均匀的，并在多个时间和空间尺度上收集。对复杂生物系统和过程的研究需要生物学家，数学家，计算机科学家和工程之间进行广泛的合作，以提高我们对从基因到系统的复杂生物过程的理解。这位暑期学校的主要目的是使本科生和研究生生物学科学和生物工程学生接触到工程更好的药物，个性化医学，系统和合成生物学的相对较新的方法。此外，这也将对有兴趣从事生物学，生物分子工程和生物工程研究的计算机科学和数学的学生有所帮助，因为暑期学校提供了对生物科学中基本挑战的非凡见解。暑期学校使用专家教师使用的讲座，针对生物科学专业的学生，​​并将专注于工程更好的药物，个性化医学，系统和合成生物学。除这些讲座外，暑期学校还将在本科生和研究生的积极参与两个小时的讨论中进行2个小组讨论，专注于工程更好的药物以及世界上生物医学工程研究和教育的进步。暑期学校将刺激工程师，数学家，计算机科学家和医学研究人员之间的进一步跨学科研究和合作，并将有助于识别复杂的生物学科学和生物工程研究中的新的，具有挑战性的方向。 该项目将支持12名高级本科生和研究生和五个暑期学校的教职员工，用于国际生物复杂性的暑期学校，从系统到基因将于2010年7月1日至7日在土耳其伊斯坦布尔举行。
