Awarding the winners of the SYSBIO 2016 price

Winners of the 2016 SYSBIO price has been awarded during the last SYSBIODAY, on 12th December 2017, in Milan.

The SYSBIO price awards SYSBIO members that, during a calendar year, publish an new, original research paper with a complete systems biology approach (molecular and computational analysis) on international journals having a 5-year Impact Factor (5y-IF) higher than 10.
