MODULES

Aim

Fast development of SB is determined by its high value in technology intensive bioindustries:

Medicine
Biotechnology
food industry

and ecology

sustainable development
biofuels

One of preconditions of fast and effective SB development and implementation of its results in industry is the interdisciplinary collaboration of specialists from different non-related groups of branches:

biology
medicine
chemistry (live experiments, biological interpretation)
information technology (data handling, modelling
software development, development of control systems)
mathematics
physics (modelling, data processing)
and others.

Interdisciplinary collaboration has to lead to a synergy in highly technological industry and economy. Still interdisciplinary collaboration requests interdisciplinary education. There are different experiences of interdisciplinary education in systems biology and bioinformatics: technical educational institutions have trained engineers and information technologists towards biology and the way around. That experience should be combined with training methods of vocational education that are specific if the trained people are high level specialists in one of the fields and a beginner in another one.
