Spotlight on Science Meetings, Conferences and Events brings you information on the following: Gene Regulatory Networks for Development to be held on 10/08/17 - 10/21/17.
Gene regulatory networks (GRNs) are key to the genomic control of development in animals and plants. To study GRNs requires insights from various research fields, including systems biology, developmental and evolutionary biology, as well as functional genomics, and provides an integrative approach to fundamental research questions in biology. This course introduces the concepts of GRNs, and teaches experimental and computational methods used to study them, through highly interactive lectures, discussions, group projects, and practical tutorials. We will cover a broad range of topics, including transcriptional control systems, the structural organization of hierarchical networks, developmental functions of GRN circuit modules, GRN evolution, and computational modeling using BioTapestry as well as Boolean and quantitative mathematical approaches. Students will learn how to generate GRN models based on data extracted from the literature, and will generate computational models to analyze dynamic circuit behavior. We will present and discuss a broad range of experimental approaches and how they are effectively used for studying gene regulation and developmental GRNs. Examples of experimentally solved developmental GRNs from a variety of organisms, such as flies, sea urchins, frogs, chicken, and mice, will be explored. Students are encouraged to share their research projects in a poster session, and to discuss with course faculty how to apply the approaches taught in the course to their own research questions. The course is intended for advanced graduate students, postdoctoral scholars, and faculty.

Spotlight on Science Meetings, Conferences and Events brings you information on the following: Understanding Data Integrity
The Anti-Fibrotic Drug Development Summit is the first meeting to assemble researchers and program leaders from cross-industry to share experiences and insights on how to better directly target the drivers of fibrotic diseases.
Developed in combination with experts from GSK, BMS, Pfizer and many more this forum aims to better elucidate how the underlying fibrotic biology can be more effectively drugged, to discern which models of fibrosis are the most robust and how biomarkers can be implemented into improved clinical trials designs.

Spotlight on Science Meetings, Conferences and Events brings you information on the following:Understanding Data Integrity
While medicines may save lives, they also have the potential to do great harm. The difference may depend on the integrity of the data generated during drug development, clinical trials, manufacture, and testing. Managing complex pharmaceutical data systems in a global marketplace is challenging and regulatory enforcement agencies around the world have responded by bringing focus to concerns over data integrity.
