The
Alberta Informatics Circle of Research Excellence
(iCORE) has an interest in establishing an annual
program of workshops and thinktanks aimed at elevating
the profile and interaction of Alberta informatics
researchers on the world stage:
iCORE strives to establish a global reputation for
Alberta with respect to excellence in informatics
research,
iCORE recognizes that collaboration with international
colleagues is an integral part of achieving world-class
standards,
iCORE supports its Chairs and Professors in communicating
and collaborating with exceptional international
researchers in informatics, and
iCORE Chairs and Professors have an obligation to
present the results of their research to pan-Alberta
audiences every year. |

| 2007 Banff Informatics Summit |
August 23, 24 and 25, 2007
Program Chair: Stuart Kauffman
[REGISTRATION & INFORMATION]
[TENTATIVE SCHEDULE (PDF)]
A Grand Challenge Theme answering How is Informatics Central to Systems Biology, such as the Systems Biology of Cancer?
The 2007 iCORE Banff Summit will explore how our backgrounds, knowledge, and research expertise in informatics and related areas can contribute to new collaborative explorations and research.
We attempt this Grand Challenge because it illuminates the broad and growing interdisciplinary terrain of Systems Biology. The fields of computer science, electrical engineering, physics, mathematics, signal processing, machine learning, complexity studies, medicine, biochemistry, molecular biology and cell biology build the foundation of Systems Biology. Join us in the challenge!
