Other Activities

I was invited to organise and present a workshop on Flux Balance Analysis at the BioSysBio 2007 Conference, Manchester, UK.

I am the founder and organiser of a network of researchers of Biological Modelling in MIB and in the University of Manchester. The network provides a platform for its members to network, and further explore the field of biological modelling, and organises lectures and events related to the common interests of its members. More details can be found at BMNet's official website.
