The “COmputational Modeling in BIology NEtwork” (COMBINE) is an initiative to coordinate the development of the various community standards and formats for computational models. By doing so, it is expected that the federated projects will develop a set of interoperable and non-overlapping standards covering all aspects of modeling in biology. The global COMBINE effort is led by the COMBINE Coordination Board.
Building on the experience of mature projects, which already have stable specifications, software support, user-base and community governance, COMBINE will help foster or support fledgling efforts aimed at filling gaps or new needs. As those efforts mature, they may become part of the core set of COMBINE standards.
One of the initial activities of COMBINE is to coordinate the organization of scientific and technical events common to several standards. Those events, as others related to our field of research are gathered in a calendar.

The “Computational Modeling in Biology” Network (COMBINE) is an initiative to coordinate the development of the various community standards and formats in systems biology, synthetic biology and related fields. HARMONY is a codefest-type meeting, with a focus on development of the standards, interoperability and infrastructure. There are generally not many general discussions or oral presentations during HARMONY; instead, the time is devoted to allowing hands-on hacking and interaction between people focused on practical development of software and standards.
HARMONY 2025 will be held at KU Leuven
Local organizers are Liesbet Geris, Luiz Ladeira, and Bernard Staumont.
