1110876, AkayThe 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 train undergraduate, graduate biological science students and post-doctoral fellows in Bionano Science, Engineering and Technology (BNSET). The system level understanding of biology will be derived using mathematical and engineering methods to understand complex biological processes. It will expose the attendees with biology background to the latest technological developments. It will also be helpful to students in computer science and mathematics who are interested in doing research in BNSET, since the summer school provides exceptional insights into the fundamental challenges in science, medicine and engineering.The summer schools are excellent learning, teaching and brain storming opportunitiesfor students, post-docs and young researchers as well as the summer school faculty. 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 with focus on bionano science, engineering and technology. This project will support the travel of 10 people (7 graduate students and 3 post-doctoral fellows) the 10th International Summer School on Biocomplexity from System to Gene to be held in Istanbul, Turkey on July 1-7, 2011; these students and faculty will interact with the participants from Turkey and other countries.

1110876，Akayththe生物科学已经变得更加定量和信息驱动的科学，因为新兴的计算和数学工具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在Bionano科学，工程技术（BNSET）中培训本科生，研究生生物科学专业的学生和博士后研究员。系统水平对生物学的理解将使用数学和工程方法得出，以了解复杂的生物学过程。它将以生物学背景的参与者接触最新的技术发展。这对有兴趣在BNSET进行研究的计算机科学和数学的学生也将很有帮助，因为暑期学校提供了对科学，医学和工程学中的基本挑战的非凡见解。暑期学校是良好的学习，教学和大脑的袭击机会，为学生，课后和年轻的研究人员以及暑期学校的教职员工提供了机会。 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，并将帮助识别复杂的生物科学和生物工程研究的新的，具有挑战性的方向，重点是Bionano科学，工程和技术。该项目将支持10人（7名研究生和3名博士后研究员）的旅行，这是2011年7月1日至7日在土耳其伊斯坦布尔举行的第10届国际生物复杂暑期学校。这些学生和教职员工将与土耳其和其他国家的参与者互动。
