Description
This conference will focus on the challenges in the complexity of immune pathways in disease. Topics will include mechanism-based investigation, computational modelling, therapeutic and clinical targets.
Delegates will:
Understand molecular pathway approaches
* Follow multiple molecular cause-effect processes to understand disease mechanisms
* Integrate genomic, proteomic and metabolic knowledge into one single consensus diagram
Learn about pathway analysis tools
* Graphical notation and network analysis techniques
* Transcription profiling and RNAi
Discover how this can be applied to clinical medicine
* Making decisions in drug discovery & development
* Translating discovery from the lab to the clinic, and back again
* Applications in immunity, oncology and cardiovascular disease
