Welcome

Welcome on the Website of the Workshop on Genomic Error Correction which took place in Cergy-Pontoise from 3 to 4 June 2009 at

Université de Cergy Pontoise
Site de Saint Martin
2 avenue Adolphe Chauvin
95302 Cergy Pontoise, France

Goal of the Workshop

---

The goal of the workshop is to bring together experts in the fields of information and coding theory, genetics and bioinformatics and initiate a discussion on how to establish a framework for rigorous treatment of DNA-repair in order to describe its functionality quantitatively and algorithmically. 

The main idea is that the principles of information theory and coding theory developed for engineering of man-made systems can serve as a framework for incorporating phenomena observed on different levels of abstraction of the genomic error correction system, and that insights in biological origins of DNA repair can open new horizons in engineering of synthetic systems.
