*** Conference*
------------------------------------------------------------
BioSB 2016 is the second edition of the Dutch Bioinformatics & Systems
Biology conference. BioSB 2016 discusses the latest developments in
bioinformatics, systems and computational biology and interrelated
disciplines, and their wide-ranging applications in life sciences & health,
agriculture, food & nutrition.

This year's conference will be co-organised by the BioSB research school
<http://www.biosb.nl>  and the Wageningen UR <http://www.wageningenur.nl>.

*** Programme*
------------------------------------------------------------
BioSB 2016 will be a 2-day scientific conference (April 19-20, 2016) with
keynote speakers, parallel sessions based on abstract submission, an
evening poster session and a nice evening programme. The conference will
offer lots of opportunities to meet with fellow Bioinformatics and Systems
Biology colleagues from academia and industry as well as master students.
On April 18, the day preceeding the conference, the YoungCB retreat will be
organised.

As this is the annual conference of BioSB <http://www.biosb.nl>, the
national Bioinformatics & Systems Biology research school, BioSB 2016 will
offer a programme with a mix of state-of-the-art work in both areas.
