Dr. Mike Taussig, the Chairman of the ESF’s Frontiers of Functional Genomics (FFG) speaks about the 3rd ESF Functional Genomics Conference, which will be held in Innsbruck, Austria, on 1-4 October 2008.  The FFG programme, which follows on from the very successful programme Integrated Approaches, is supported by science and medical research councils and academies in 17 participating European countries and overseen by a steering committee consisting of a representative from each country. It connects the most promising developments in functional genomics technologies with the expanding concept of systems biology, focusing particularly on applications in biomedicine, as well as the environment and implications for society at large. Its activities bring together a wide range of functional genomics researchers in Europe through workshops, training courses, conferences and grants for short term inter-laboratory visits. The programme is open to all interested researchers in Europe.
