Constraint-Based Metabolic Modeling (FBA/FVA) — Hands-on

Build, simulate, and analyze metabolic network models with constraint-based methods. You will learn curation of genome-scale models (GEMs) , objective functions, bounds, and exchange reactions; run FBA/FVA/pFBA; perform gene/reaction knockouts; and generate phenotype predictions and strain designs. Models and reports are packaged with community standards (SBML, COBRA format, MEMOTE) .
