*Dear Colleagues and Students,*
*I am writing this email to invite you to the 2nd Systems Biology
Research Panel in GMU, Fairfax**, May 5th (10:30 a.m. to 2 p.m) in
Johnson center 3rd Floor Meeting Rm D (FAIRFAX). Please note change of
location form the previously distributed advertisement. *
*We will have an outstanding speaker from Singapore, Dr.Kuznetsov, well
known for his bioinformatics-inspired insights in optimizing the search
for novel biomarkers of tumorigenesis. We will also have some
interesting short presentations from the Molecular & Microbiology and
Math departments (see program below this e-mail). Hope to see you there
- pizza and coffee will be provided*
*With best regards,*
*Ancha
