A one-day workshop bringing together researchers working at the intersection of statistical inference, data-driven approaches, and quantitative methods in living systems. The workshop aims to explore how statistical and quantitative approaches can help uncover principles of biological systems across different scales.
Registration is free, but please submit abstracts for posters and flash talks before November 6th 2026.
Confirmed speakers:
- Anne Wald:
- Camilo Aponte-Santamaría: “Coarse-grained simulations of highly flexible biopolymers”
- Martin Weigt: "Navigating RNA Sequence Space: Generative Models, Biophysics, and High-Throughput Experiments"
- Robert Großmann: "Likelihood-based inference of population heterogeneity in stochastic cellular transport"
- Silvia Grigolon: "Field-theoretic moment-based inference in synthetic microRNA-based circuits beyond the Gaussian regime"
- Steffen Schultze: "Bayesian determination of structural ensembles from single-molecule X-ray scattering images"
- Ulrike Endesfelder: "Single-Molecule Microscopy as a Quantitative Tool for In Vivo Studies in (Micro)Biology"
