Inbix'21  too goes virtual! 

Bioclues.org, India's largest Bioinformatics society enters 17 years in service this October 2021 even as the organization has set up vision 2030. The society has organized her debut onsite Inbix'17 conference in Jaipur during November 2017 and Inbix'19 in HMV, Jalandhar which were a huge success. Keeping in purview of the conference series, the next conference which was to be held on site at North Eastern Hill University (NEHU), Shillong, Meghalaya in April has been considered as a virtual organization. This 2021 addition is held at CSIR-NEIST, Jorhat and we, the Indian Conference on Bioinformatics 2021 (Inbix'20) organizers hope this opportunity will not only foster interactions and collaborations among practitioners but will also allow young researchers interact with the world leaders, who are among the top researchers in the bioinformatics and computational biology. While we spur on this annual event, the organizers  welcome all bioinformaticists across the world to take part in this august conference to be held virtually but hosted by CSIR-NEIST. 

This year's theme
