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. |

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.

Most of our bioanalytical projects are at the
interface between
postgenomic biological systems, quantitative analytical chemistry and
machine learning, with a special emphasis on evolutionary computing and
systems biology.

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.
