'''SysMod (Systems Modeling)''' is an annual meeting dedicated to the computational modeling of biological systems. It is part of the Intelligent Systems for Molecular Biology ([[Intelligent Systems for Molecular Biology|ISMB]]) conference <ref>{{cite web | url=https://www.iscb.org/about-ismb | title=About ISMB }}</ref><ref>{{cite web | url=https://www.iscb.org/cosis/info | title=Public Info }}</ref> and the European Conference on Computational Biology ([[European Conference on Computational Biology|ECCB]])<ref>{{cite web | url=https://www.iscb.org/ismbeccb2023 | title=Home - Ismb/Eccb 2023 }}</ref>, leading international [[bioinformatics]] and [[computational biology]] events. SysMod focuses on mechanistic modeling and [[Causal model|causal]] understanding of biological functions at all scales, from [[Virus|viruses]] and individual [[Cell (biology)|cells]] and [[Tissue (biology)|tissues]] up to integrated host-[[Microbiota|microbita]] simulations. It aims to channel the development of systems biology by bringing together scientists from diverse fields, including [[Wet lab|wet-lab]] and [[Dry lab|dry-lab]] researchers, and fostering their exchange.<ref>{{Cite web |last1=Puniya |first1=Bhanwar Lal |last2=Verma |first2=Meghna |last3=Damiani |first3=Chiara |last4=Bakr |first4=Shaimaa |last5=Dräger |first5=Andreas |author-link5=Andreas Dräger |year=2024 |title=Perspectives on computational modeling of biological systems and the significance of the SysMod community |url=https://academic.oup.com/bioinformaticsadvances/article/doi/10.1093/bioadv/vbae090/7699786 |access-date=2024-07-29 |journal=Bioinformatics Advances |volume=4 |pages=vbae090 |doi=10.1093/bioadv/vbae090 |issn=2635-0041 |pmc=11213628 |pmid=38948011}}</ref> SysMod usually comprises a one-day meeting at varying places internationally, with keynote talks, lightning speeches, and poster awards.

SysMod was initiated in [[2015]] by [[Nicolas Le Novère]] and co-founded by [[Andreas Dräger]] and Jonathan Karr. The first SysMod meeting was held in [[2016]] at [[Walt Disney World|Disney World]], [[Orlando, Florida|Orlando]], FL, in conjunction with the Network Biology (NetBio) workshop<ref>{{cite web | url=https://sysmod.info/meetings/sysmod-netbio-2016/ | title=2016 joint SysMod/NetBio meeting @ ISMB }}</ref><ref>{{cite web | url=https://www.iscb.org/ismb2016program/ismb2016-cosi | title=COSI Session }}</ref>. It featured keynote speakers Vassily Hatzimanikatis, Nathan Price, and Ioannis Xenarios<ref>{{cite web | url=https://sysmod.info/meetings/sysmod-netbio-2016/ | title=2016 joint SysMod/NetBio meeting @ ISMB }}</ref>. Following the successful launch, the SysMod coordinator team expanded to include Tomáš Helikar, Julio Saez-Rodriguez, and Laurence Calzone. The next meeting took place in [[Prague]] in [[2017]]<ref>{{cite web | url=https://sysmod.info/meetings/sysmod-2017/ | title=2017 SysMod meeting @ ISMB/ECCB }}</ref><ref>{{cite web | url=https://www.iscb.org/ismbeccb2017 | title=Home }}</ref>. When Nicolas Le Novère stepped down, A. Dräger became the ''de facto'' chairman. The meeting was held in [[Chicago]], IL, and the coordinators expanded further with Claudine Chaouiya, Jan Hasenauer, María Rodríguez Martínez, Marc Birtwistle, and Juilee Thakar joining the team. The subsequent meeting was in [[Basel]]. Anna Niarakis and Matteo Barberis joined the coordinators in [[2019]]. Due to the [[COVID-19 pandemic]], the meetings were held virtually instead of in [[Montreal]] ([[2020]]) and [[Lyon]] ([[2021]]).<ref>{{Cite journal |last1=Niarakis |first1=Anna |last2=Thakar |first2=Juilee |last3=Barberis |first3=Matteo |last4=Rodríguez Martínez |first4=María |last5=Helikar |first5=Tomáš |last6=Birtwistle |first6=Marc |last7=Chaouiya |first7=Claudine |last8=Calzone |first8=Laurence |last9=Dräger |first9=Andreas |author-link9=Andreas Dräger |date=2022-09-22 |year=2022 |title=Computational modelling in health and disease: highlights of the 6th annual SysMod meeting |url=https://doi.org/10.1093/bioinformatics/btac609 |journal=Bioinformatics |volume=38 |issue=21 |pages=4990–4993 |doi=10.1093/bioinformatics/btac609 |issn=1367-4803 |pmc=9620821}}</ref> After the meeting in [[Madison, Wisconsin|Madison]], WI, in [[2022]] A.

The current coordinators are Shaimaa Bakr, Matteo Barberis, Chiara Damiani, Reihaneh Mostolizadeh, Bhanwar Lal Puniya, and Meghna Verma, with Bhanwar Lal Puniya as their elected chairman<ref>https://sysmod.info/</ref>. SysMod now operates with a rotation of coordinators and fixed terms for the coordinators and the scientific advisory board, ensuring dynamic and updated leadership<ref>{{cite web | url=https://sysmod.info/governance/ | title=Governance }}</ref>.
