THE CENTER FOR MODELING INTEGRATED METABOLIC SYSTEMS WILL HOST THE "SYMPOSIUM ON MODELING CELLULAR METABOLISM"
The Center for Modleing Integrated Metabolic Systems (MIMS) is excited to sponsor the "Symposium on Modeling Cellular Metabolism". This symposium will convene nine distinguished speakers and an international audience from academia and industry to form a key event of the Computational Bioengineering Track during the BMES 2004 Annual Fall Meeting on October 14, 2004, in Philadelphia, PA. This unique congregation of experts will provide a special opportunity for Case biomedical engineers and other investigators to gain a better understanding of this rapidly developing field of research.
