The Manchester Centre for
Integrative Systems Biology (MCISB)
will pioneer the development of new technologies in Systems Biology - a
new approach to genomics which uses complex computational and
mathematical analysis to advance on traditional methods. |

MIB |
 |
|
Manchester Interdisciplinary Biocentre (MIB) is an interfaculty initiative specifically designed to foster a scientific culture in which there are no barriers between the disciplines, thus ensuring that the widest possible range of expertise and techniques can be brought to bear on important bioscience problems.

New Chief Executive for BBSRC
The Secretary of State for Innovation, Universities and Skills has today announced the appointment of Professor Douglas Kell as the next Chief Executive of the Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council (BBSRC). (read more...)
14 March, 2005
20M for new approach to biology The Biotechnology and
Biological Sciences Research Council (BBSRC) and the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) have announced an investment totalling
almost 20M in three new Centres for Integrative Systems Biology. The new centres, at Imperial College London and the Universities of Manchester and
Newcastle, will help to revolutionise the way that bioscientists think and work, by enabling multidisciplinary research combining theory, computer
modelling and experiments in a systems approach across the life sciences and industry. The University of Manchester has been awarded 6m to open a new
biocentre which will revolutionise the way future medicines are produced - making them safer and more effective. The Manchester Centre for Integrative Systems Biology (MCISB) will pioneer an
entirely new approach to biology which will not only help pharmaceutical companies to develop better drugs, but potentially reduce the time it takes to
develop them. The centre will pioneer the development of new technologies in Systems Biology - a new approach to genomics which uses complex
computational and mathematical analysis to advance on traditional methods.
