Title:  PSB Highlights from session on Physics-Based Simulation and Multiscale Modeling

Abstract:
We will briefly describe the PSB conference including goals and special session structure. We will give an overview of the session on Multiscale Modeling and Simulation at this year's conference, (jointly organized by Simbios and NBCR), with highlights of presented papers, and a report on the animated discussion session that followed. Finally, we will brainstorm some ideas for a modeling and simulation session for PSB 2009. We hope you will come and join this discussion and also help us shape and perhaps participate in a proposed session for next year.
