The "Computational Modeling in Biology" Network (COMBINE) is an  
initiative
to coordinate the development of the various community standards and
formats in systems biology and related fields. An important activity of
COMBINE is to organise common meetings, where the developers of the
different standards can meet and work together. The annual COMBINE  
forum is
a workshop-style event with oral presentations, discussions, posters and
breakout sessions. The meeting includes talks about the COMBINE  
standards
and associated or related standardization efforts, as well as  
presentations
of tools using these standards.

The first day of the meeting, Monday 16th September, will be dedicated  
to
presentations of modelling approaches in biology either not currently
covered by our efforts, or using them in new or innovative ways. Invited
speakers are:
Michael Hucka, Caltech
Vincent Danos, CNRS, University Paris-Diderot, University of Edinburgh
Denis Thieffry, École Normale Supérieure
Andrei Zinovyev, Institut Curie
Andrew Davison, CNRS
Marc Lavielle, INRIA, University Paris-Sud
Benjamin Ribba, INRIA
Hiroaki Kitano, SBI, OIST
Dirk Drasdo, INRIA, University of Leipzig

In addition, short presentations will be selected from the submitted  
abstracts.

The remaining four meeting days, from Tuesday 17th to Friday 20th
September, will include talks about the COMBINE standards and  
associated or
related standardization efforts and discussion sessions. Main discussion
themes will be "Mathematical Modelling", "Simulation and analysis",
"Interoperability", "Visualization".
