Chronic kidney disease (CKD) affects around 9% of the global population and is the 12th leading cause of death (GBD Chronic Kidney Disease Collaboration 2020). Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) is the most common form of CKD, responsible for nearly half of all end-stage renal disease (ESRD) cases (Samsu 2021). Despite its high burden, progress in developing effective therapies has been slow, largely due to limited understanding of the underlying molecular mechanisms.

DKD is driven by complex and ...

The workshop focuses on the publication, curation, retrieval, and usage of kinetic data from the reaction kinetics database SABIO-RK and on the use of data in modeling. There will be experience reports from scientists who successfully used experimental data to formulate or verify biological hypotheses with the computer, and you will experience how experimental data can be used with computational models.

Here we share resources and best practices to develop a disease map for COVID-19. The project is progressing as a broad community-driven effort. We aim to establish a knowledge repository on virus-host interaction mechanisms specific to the SARS-CoV-2. The COVID-19 Disease Map is an assembly of molecular interaction diagrams established based on literature evidence.
