The 5th International Workshop on Bioinformatics and Systems Biology is part of a collaborative educational program involving three leading research institutes: Boston University in the US, Kyoto University in Japan and Humboldt University Berlin in Germany. This student-focused event is held annually since 2001 to provide doctoral students and young researchers with opportunities to present and discuss their research objectives, approaches and results in the emerging field of genomics and systems biology of biomolecular networks.
 

The workshop was co-organized by educational programs of the following institutions:

1) Boston University, Graduate Program in Bioinformatics,

2) Kyoto University, Bioinformatics Center, and  University of Tokyo, Human Genome Center,

3) Humboldt University, Berlin Graduate Program "Dynamics and Evolution of Cellular and Macromolecular Processes".
