Dear colleagues,
The first <https://www.iscb.org/advcompbio2019> Advances in Computational
Biology conference will bring together researchers working on systems
biology, omics technologies, artificial intelligence and high-performance
computing with applications to biology. The conference is open to everyone
to attend, but all the speakers will be women, providing an excellent
opportunity to share ideas and build research networks.
You are invited to register to attend (
<https://www.iscb.org/advcompbio2019-registration>

Topics included:
1. Learning from Biological Sequences: population genomics, evolutionary
genomics, systems biology, transcriptomics, sequence analysis
2. When Computational Biology meets Medicine: biomedical applications,
mutational landscapes, clinical genomics
3. Machines Speeding up Research: high performance computing, machine
learning in the life sciences, imaging data analysis, dynamic simulations
and algorithm development
