Signalling pathways and networks are very important to regulate and control cellular processes, cell fate, and their malfunctions often lead to diseases, such as cancer or diabetes. This course provides an introductory overview about the most useful resources and tools to investigate signalling pathways and network, and also to introduce basic approaches to model signalling events. Hands-on trainings will give a wide overview on tools and concepts related to signalling networks.

In this course you will learn how to use Cytoscape, where to find the most reliable signalling data, how to reconstruct, analyze and visualize a network. You will also learn how to develop your own models, mostly with logic modeling, what other modeling approaches exist, and how you can apply a model for your own research work.
