Shocks and irreversible developments in biological systems
Apoptosis and heat-shock proteins

Warsaw, 24-26 March 2004

The workshop was mainly addressed to graduates in areas of biophysics, bioinformatics and mathematical modelling of complex developments in biological systems. Special emphasis has been devoted to mechanisms in irreversible phenomena. Main topics included:
  • heat-shock proteins and their functionality
  • apoptosis in biological systems
  • protein structure analysis
  • phylogenetic trees
  • advances in mathematical modelling of irreversible processes
Main lecturers:
  • Prof. Ewa Sikora, The Nencki Institute of Experimental Biology, Warsaw
  • Prof. Maciej Żylicz, International Institute of Molecular and Cell Biology, Warsaw
  • Prof. Marek Niezgódka, Interdisciplinary Centre for Mathematical and Computational Modelling, UW, Warsaw
