q-bio-be events

Welcome to our page! The q-bio-be initiative seek to strengthen links between different groups in Belgium interested in quantitative modeling of biological systems in a broad sense. We created a calendar to share initiatives around dynamical modeling of biological systems in Belgium. We also organize joint lab meetings near the central station in Brussels, in the building of FWO (Hoek 38).
