International Conference on Intelligent Systems for Molecular Biology (ISMB) 2024: A Must-Attend Event

The International Conference on Intelligent Systems for Molecular Biology (ISMB) is an annual event organized by the International Society for Computational Biology (ISCB). This flagship meeting of the ISCB is renowned as the world's largest conference focused on bioinformatics and computational biology. ISMB 2024 will showcase the latest international developments in the field and shape the future of this dynamic area of research. The involvement of the ISCB's Communities of Special Interest (COSIs) enhances the exceptional scientific program.

The 2024 ISMB conference will be the 32nd edition and offers the unique feature of allowing participants to attend either in-person in Montreal, Quebec, Canada, or virtually through a state-of-the-art virtual interface.

Participants can look forward to a rich program that includes:

• Training workshops and tutorials: Sessions designed to enhance participants' knowledge and skills in specific bioinformatics and computational biology areas.
• Student Council Symposium: A dedicated symposium where students can showcase their research and interact with peers and experts.
• Live and on-demand sessions: Talks and presentations accessible live and available for on-demand viewing, accommodating attendees from different time zones.
• Scientific talks: Over 500 scientific talks on various topics within bioinformatics and computational biology.
• Live Q&A and chat features: Interactivity features that enable attendees to engage with speakers and other participants during sessions.
• Research Exchange Forum: A platform for researchers to present their work, either face-to-face or through the virtual platform.
• Face-to-face networking events: Opportunities for in-person attendees to connect and network.
• Virtual attendee profile and matchmaker features: Tools to facilitate networking and making new connections within the virtual platform.
• One-on-one meetings: Opportunities to schedule private meetings with speakers, presenters, exhibitors, and sponsors to learn more about their work.
• Access to on-demand repository: Exclusive access to recorded talks and poster presentations for viewing after the conference.

A specific section of the conference, iRNA, will be co-organized by Michelle Scott, Athma Pai, and Hagen Tilgner. This section will highlight advances and innovative research in the RNA field. You can check the detailed program for iRNA here: iRNA Programme ISMB 2024.

We hope to see many of you at this major event for the scientific community!
