ESNM

ESNM refers to the European School of Network Medicine. It is an educational initiative focused on providing advanced training in the field of network medicine. Network medicine is an emerging discipline that applies systems biology approaches to understand disease. It views diseases not as isolated entities affecting single genes or proteins, but as complex disruptions within biological networks. By analyzing these networks, researchers aim to identify novel therapeutic targets and personalize treatments.

The European School of Network Medicine typically organizes workshops, courses, and summer schools. These events bring together researchers, clinicians, and students from various disciplines, including biology, computer science, bioinformatics, and medicine. The curriculum often covers topics such as network inference, graph theory applications in biology, systems biology modeling, and the analysis of omics data within a network context. The goal is to equip participants with the theoretical knowledge and practical skills necessary to conduct research and apply network medicine principles in their work. The ESNM aims to foster collaboration and advance the understanding and treatment of complex diseases through a systems-level perspective.
