BIOINFORMATICS: FROM ALGORITHMS TO APPLICATIONS
July 12–15, 2021
Saint Petersburg, Russia
We welcome you to attend the fifth international conference «Bioinformatics: from Algorithms to Applications» that will be held virtually on July 12-13, 2021.
Modern life science studies involve both biological and computational methods. Breakthrough results in these fields can only be achieved by tight communication and knowledge exchange between the two sides. The ultimate goal of the conference is to bring together bioinformaticians and biologists to share experience in development and practical application of bioinformatics algorithms.
The conference will be accompanied by a 2-day online workshop on metagenomic data analysis. Workshop includes practices in metagenomic data annotation using MGnify.
Topics include:
- Sequencing technologies
- Molecular sequence analysis
- Computational genomics
- Genome assembly
- Transcriptomics
- Metagenomics
- Agrigenomics
- Viromics
- CRISPR
- Natural Producs Discovery
Key Dates:
- Talk abstract submission deadline: May 31, 2021
- Poster abstract submission deadline: June 14, 2021
- Talk acceptance notification: June 7, 2021
- Video submission deadline: June 30, 2021
