SIB Days 2020: Proteins and proteomes, from data to knowledge
Channel: SIB - Swiss Institute of Bioinformatics
Date: 2020-07-01

Parallel Session 7: Proteins & Proteomes

Proteins are key for nearly every task performed by a living organism, from shaping cells to
defending them against pathogens. Recent technological advances allow their
characterisation at a larger scale, but there remains a crucial need for further integrating the
data generated in order to improve our understanding of the proteomes and find novel
biomarkers or drug targets, for example. In this session, we are interested in everything
relating to proteins such as measuring and analysing their expression levels, their
modifications, their interactions and their biological roles.

Session Chairs: Lydie Lane (Computer and Laboratory Investigation of Proteins of Human Origin - CALIPHO, Centre Médical Universitaire - CMU), Julien Racle (Computational Cancer Biology Group, University of Lausanne)

About the SIB Days: this internal conference of the SIB Swiss Institute of Bioinformatics is organized every two years. Its ambition? To give a voice to SIB's 80 Groups across Switzerland, through a diversity of bioinformatics topics, and to offer its 800 SIB Members an opportunity to meet and learn about each other’s research and activities in a friendly atmosphere. Due to this year’s events, the conference has taken place virtually for the first time, on 8-10 June 2020. Most of the talks could be made public post-event.
