BiATA 2018: Bioinformatics: from Algorithms to Applications 2018 Saint Petersburg State University Saint Petersburg, Russia, July 16-19, 2018 |
Conference website | http://biata2018.spbu.ru |
Abstract registration deadline | May 13, 2018 |
Submission deadline | June 15, 2018 |
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 aims to bridge bioinformatics methods for genome, metagenome, transcriptome and immune repertoire analysis with the requirements of biological applications.
The conference includes 1/2-day workshop on QIIME usage for microbiome analysis from Dr. Amanda Birmingham and Dr. Rob Knight (UCSD, USA).
