This is a great possibility to learn hosting skills in a friend ly environment and create connections for future. Everyone is welcome to j oin\, BioCity Turku will offer the lunch.\n\nIf you got interested\, pleas e send an email to biocityturku@bioscience.fi\n\n \;\n\nEvangelia Pets alaki's research group studies human cell signalling in healthy and diseas e conditions. The group uses interdisciplinary approaches\, including data -driven network inference\, modelling of cell processes and data integrati on\, to understand how different environmental or genetic conditions affec t cell signalling responses leading to diverse cell phenotypes. Their long -term aim is to create whole-cell signalling models\, to better understand cell functions and disease. Evangelia has a PhD in structural bioinformat ics from EMBL and the University of Heidelberg (2009) and did her postdoct oral work at the Lunenfeld-Tanenbaum Research Institute in Toronto\, Canad a (2010-2016).\n\n \;\n\nSelected publications\n\nComprehensive evalua tion of phosphoproteomic-based kinase activity inference.
