— ISMB 2024 CompMS – Save the date & call for proposals — [https://lh7-us.googleusercontent.com/O9LcuwC_7daAW4J8dfF4Slz7UeSm9KM6DyxOVuO...] Dear colleagues, Please join us during the ISMB 2024 conference in Montreal, Canada for the Computational Mass Spectrometry (CompMS) COSI session on July 12–16, 2024. The Intelligent Systems for Molecular Biology (ISMB) is the world’s largest bioinformatics/computational biology conference. Every year it brings together scientists from computer science, molecular biology, mathematics, statistics, and related fields and provides an intense multidisciplinary forum for disseminating the latest developments in bioinformatics/computational biology. The conference fosters fresh dialogues, collaboration and learning opportunities, and is a gathering which shapes the future of the field. At the heart of the scientific program are ISCB’s Communities of Special Interest (COSIs), enabling community involvement and bolstering ISMB’s reputation as the leading conference in the field. The CompMS COSI promotes the efficient, high-quality analysis of mass spectrometry data through dissemination and training in existing approaches and discussion of new, innovative approaches. The CompMS initiative aims to exploit synergies between different mass spectrometry-based application domains, in particular proteomics, metabolomics, and lipidomics. A strong scientific and technical program showcases the best international developments in bioinformatics and computational biology, making ISMB 2024 a must attend event. Virtual participation options are also available. New this year! Join us for the CompMS social event at 3 Brasseurs (1255A Crescent St, Montreal, Quebec H3G 2B1, Canada) on Monday July 13, 2024 for a fun get-together with your fellow computational mass spectrometry enthusiasts! Register for the social event during your ISMB conference registration. New this year! We are delighted to offer travel fellowships for early-career researchers (ECRs)! Fill out this form<https://forms.gle/HVYXSjQkMLvG87Zq5> to apply for one of the C$400 travel fellowships.
