Following the success of the First International
Workshop on Information Processing in Cells and
Tissues (IPCAT 95) we are pleased to announce
TWO regional workshops taking place in late
October 1996.
* Dusseldorf - 26th October
* Liverpool - 28th October
PURPOSE OF IPCAT WORKSHOPS
The purpose of the IPCAT workshop series is to bring together
multidisciplinary groups of scientists working in the general area
of modelling cells and
tissues. A central theme will be the nature of biological information and
the ways it is processed in cells and tissues. The workshop
is intended to provide a forum to report
research, discuss emerging topics and gain new insights into information
processing systems, enzyme and gene networks, second messenger systems and
signal transduction, automata models, PDP models, cellular automata models,
single neuron computation, information processing in developmental systems,
information processing in neural and non neural systems and new insights
into non linear aspects of physiological behaviour.
STRUCTURE OF 1996 IPCAT WORKSHOPS
The 1996 workshops will be one day events and will aim to
Talks will be restricted in length in order to allow for
plenty of dialogue.
