Oak Ridge National Lab - Biomedical Science and Engineering Conference

The Biomedical Science and Engineering Center at ORNL announces its annual conference on Collaborative Biomedical Innovations. The central theme of the 2013 BSEC Conference is Integrating Experiments, Simulations and Modeling for Biomedical Advances: From Single Molecules to Public Health Dynamics. 

Why this Event Matters
Exhibiting companies will have a rare opportunity to showcase their products/services in a casual, information sharing environment to a diverse crowd of National Lab personnel from around the United States, participate in (non-classified) workshop sessions and network during break and reception times.

Attendees
Event hosts anticipate approximately 150 attendees comprised of Engineers, Scientists, Academics and IT professionals to the conference. All Oak Ridge personnel will be invited to view the exhibits and network with the industry on-site.

Conference Overview & Topics
From studying individual molecular events to modeling how diseases spread within heterogeneous populations, there is an increasing need to integrate information from disparate sources, high through-put experiments to large-scale computational simulations, multi-modality patient data, and other data sources including social media and crowd-sourcing. Mathematical modeling and computational analysis are indispensible in understanding spatiotemporal behaviors of complex biomedical systems operating at multiple scales. Bringing together researchers from disparate scientific disciplines and organizations is essential to gain novel insights and to propose innovative solutions to the theoretical, methodological, analytical, and translational problems of such challenging knowledge discovery undertake.
The conference will cover both basic research and translational aspects with special emphasis on the critical role of interdisciplinary collaborations.
