Dear colleagues,


On behalf of the organising committee, we would like to let you know that early bird registration has now opened for the 2023 Annual Australian Bioinformatics and Computational Biology Society (ABACBS) Conference, to be held in Brisbane on 4-8 Dec (https://2023.abacbs.org/). ABACBS is Australia’s largest bioinformatics conference and represents a community of over 1100 members across the country. 

 

To maximise global outreach of Australian science to an international audience, for the first time in ABACBS history, the Brisbane 2023 edition will be held in collaboration with the International Society of Computational Biology (ISCB), the world's leading professional society in the discipline. In addition to the discounts we are offering through early bird registration rates, everyone who registers for ABACBS can also sign up for discounted ISCB membership! 

 

ABACBS 2023 will facilitate multidisciplinary crosstalk among researchers, academics, and professionals from Australia and abroad who are involved in both the generation and analysis of molecular data from a broad spectrum of life sciences research. As per tradition, our week starts with the student-led COMBINE symposium (4 Dec), followed by the annual conference (5-6 Dec), and concludes with two days of satellite events (workshops, symposia, etc.; 7-8 Dec).

 

Our session themes include: 

 

1. Machine Learning for Discovery

2. Epigenomics and Long Read Sequencing

3. Phylogenetics & Evolution

4. Agricultural and Environmental Omics

5. Human Health and Translation

6. Cutting Edge Omics Technologies and Analysis

7. Big data infrastructure

 

If you’re interested in organising a workshop or symposia, please see the website for more info.

 

Our call for abstracts is currently open and will close on 25 Sep. Early bird registration will close on 16 Oct so please register as soon as you can to avoid missing out!


Best wishes,
CX and Jess
