Download the Book of Abstracts:
The Symposium ‘Programmable Life’ kicks-off the Barcelona Collaboratorium for Modelling and Predictive Biology, a new initiative launched by the Centre for Genomic Regulation (CRG) and EMBL Barcelona, which will be a new space for interaction of computational biology, AI and machine learning – promoting researchers to collaborate, share ideas and synergize across disciplines and scales. This symposium will gather renowned international researchers in these fields, as well as the scientific community from Barcelona and the rest of Spain.
