 |
| A two day workshop will bring
together modellers and experimentalists from A-STAR'S Bioinformatics
Institute, the Department of Biological Sciences (NUS), Temasek
Life Sciences Laboratory, Duke-NUS and the pharma/biotechnology
sector to explore how best to synergise each other's investigations.
The aim is to enhance cross-disciplinary collaborations to develop
a more rigorous enquiry into biological questions |
