Bologna Winter School 2004
THE STATE OF THE ART OF PROTEIN-PROTEIN INTERACTION NETWORKS
The role of the "in silico" approach 

Bologna, ITALY, February 8-14, 2004

http://www.biocomp.unibo.it/school/html2004/

The main topic that will be explained and debated are:global approaches to
protein-protein interactions, protein complexes and proteome organisation
in different organisms, reliability of experimental protein-protein
interaction data, modular organisation of cellular networks, computational
methods for the prediction of protein interactions.
