National Technology Centers for Networks and Pathways — All Hands Meeting

March 12–13
National Institutes of Health
Lister Conference Center (Bldg. 38A)
38A Center Drive
Bethesda, MD 20892

The 2009 National Technology Centers for Networks and Pathways (TCNP) All Hands Meeting will focus on science, with oral and poster presentations from center investigators and their biomedical collaborators. Each center will present on technology development, biological applications, and outreach activities.

The TCNP programexternal link, opens in new window currently supports five centers that develop and apply technologies for elucidation of protein networks and pathways of interaction. The primary goal of the TCNP is to develop new ways to study the dynamics of molecular interactions within cells. Understanding these dynamic interactions will shed light on the normal functions of molecular systems and their abnormal functions in disease. These centers develop new technology and expertise, apply them to challenging biomedical research problems, and make these tools available as a resource for the community.
