Systems Biology Conferences 2013
Time for my annual post on systems biology conferences. This is becoming a bit of a tradition, after my corresponding posts in 2012 and 2011. As always, I am not claiming that this list is comprehensive, but I do make...
Systems Biology Conferences 2012
The year is well under way, so this post is very, very delayed. Still, I wanted to keep going with last year’s effort, so here is my version of the Systems Biology Conferences post for 2012. This list can never...

COMBINE 2010
One of the most interesting parts of the ICSB (International Conference of Systems Biology, held this year in Edinburgh), has always been the SBML forum for me. This event was an opportunity for the SBML community to meet face-to-face and...
Moving to Seattle
Seattle skyline I probably should have written this entry some time ago, but I guess I have been a bit preoccupied with everything that has been happening lately… In any case, here is the worse-kept secret ever: I am leaving...
