How can trans-disciplinary work be inspired?

On Day 1, discuss this vital question with researchers from diverse disciplines in the context of broad Evolutionary Systems Biology research, including antibiotics resistance and the challenges of modeling.

On Day 2, explore communicating across disciplinary boundaries with experienced boundary breakers. Then roll up your sleeves and contribute your opinions on various aspects of programming that matter for building trans-disciplinary simulation models.
