This is a great possibility to learn hosting skills in a f riendly environment and create connections for future. Everyone is welcome to join\, BioCity Turku will offer the lunch.\n\nIf you got interested\, please send an email to biocityturku@bioscience.fi\n\n \;\n\nEvangelia Petsalaki's research group studies human cell signalling in healthy and d isease conditions. The group uses interdisciplinary approaches\, including data-driven network inference\, modelling of cell processes and data inte gration\, to understand how different environmental or genetic conditions affect cell signalling responses leading to diverse cell phenotypes. Their long-term aim is to create whole-cell signalling models\, to better under stand cell functions and disease. Evangelia has a PhD in structural bioinf ormatics from EMBL and the University of Heidelberg (2009) and did her pos tdoctoral work at the Lunenfeld-Tanenbaum Research Institute in Toronto\, Canada (2010-2016).\n\n \;\n\nSelected publications\n\nComprehensive e valuation of phosphoproteomic-based kinase activity inference.
