  Integrating artificial life with synthetic biology: News from Indiana University School of Informatics 

  http://www.laboratorytalk.com/news/iqd/iqd126.html

  Artificial life is an emerging informatics-based discipline that models the behavior of biological systems such as evolution, reproduction, growth, disease, learning, socialization and even death Biologists ... long have focused their microscopes and attention on how the natural world works. Artificial life, in turn, uses complex computing techniques to better understand, visualize and even mimic life's processes. Now comes an approach that combines science and engineering in order to design and construct novel biological parts, devices and biological systems for useful purposes. It's called synthetic biology, and it will be one of the focuses of discussion at the 10th International Conference on the Simulation and Synthesis of Living Systems conference, better known as Artificial Life X, being held 3-7 June 2006 The event, sponsored by the Indiana University School of Informatics, brings together some of the world's leading experts in biology, informatics and other disciplines.
