=="Quantitative Laws of Genome Evolution" Workshop (Como, Italy) -- June 27-July 5, 2013==
Lake Como School of Advanced Studies in Complex Systems (Villa del Grumello, Como, Italy) will be hosting a workshop discussing "Quantitative Laws of Genome Evolution". <br>

Quantitative approaches to evolutionary genomics, systems biology, and ecology unravel several
universal regularities connecting genome-scale observables, phenotypes and physiological traits. Putting
aside any irrealistic ambitions of a all-inclusive theories, some of these universal empirical trends might
qualify as “biological laws” in a similar sense as “law” is understood in modern physics. Consequently, a
current challenge for theoreticians is understanding how different universal features emerging empirically
can be accounted for by simple mathematical models exploring quantitative laws at different levels, from
physiology to evolutionary genomics.<br>
The scope of this workshop is to give an overview of the current state of the field and put a researcher in
the condition of performing research at the edge of the current knowledge.  The workshop will primarily
target PhD students and postdocs with a physics or mathematics background, but the school is open to
anyone with background in (evolutionary) genomics, (evolutionary) biology, bioinformatics, ecology,
interested in quantitative work.<br>

" Atlanta Biophysics Symposium" -- Saturday, Dec. 7, 2013 at Emory University

We would like to announce the upcoming "Atlanta Area Molecular and Cellular Biophysics Symposium", to be held on Saturday, Dec. 7 at Emory University. We have a distinguished lineup of speakers from local universities and also will have a poster session for postdocs and grad students (with prizes!). A full schedule along with the registration page can be found here: http://bit.ly/ATLBPS . We kindly ask that you bring this to the attention of your colleagues and students working in these areas.

If there are any questions, please feel free to let us know!

Sincerely,

Khalid Salaita, Emory Chemistry

Laura Finzi, Emory Physics
