BIOinformatics CLUb for Experimenting Scientists (BIOCLUES), India's Bioinformatics society working for Mentoring -Outreach-Research-Entrepreneurahip (MORE) enters 20th year in service even as the organization has set up vision 2030. Moving forward from Bifx series,the society has organized her debut onsite Inbix'17 conference in Jaipur during November 2017, Inbix'19 in HMV, Jalandhar, Inbix'20 in North Eastern Hill University (NEHU), Shillong, Meghalaya, and Inbix'21 in CSIR-NEIST, Jorhat, Assam as a virtual organization which were a huge success.

The 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 bioinformatics and computational biology. While we spur on this annual event, the organizers welcome all biologists and bioinformaticists across the world to take part in this august conference to be held at Praveg's Grand Eulogia, Ahmedabad organized by SBRI and Neuberg Diagnostics
