Description |
|
| The 16th Annual MidSouth Conference on Computational Biology and Bioinformatics (MCBIOS ’19) annual conference is a premier annual meeting for bioinformatics researchers, professionals, and trainees in the Middle and Southern areas of the United States. It has a major venue for informaticians to exchange late-breaking research results, learn technological trends, and network in the region. This annual event has been organized by the MCBIOS society and served as an affiliate satellite meeting of the International Society of Computational Biology (ISCB). The research theme for MCBIOS 2019 is “Informatics for Precision Medicine” and will be hosted by the University of Alabama at Birmingham School of Medicine and co-sponsored by various academic and industrial entities related to genomics, information technology, health sciences and biopharmaceuticals. The MCBIOS program committee is soliciting one-page abstracts related to the research theme “Informatics for Precision Medicine” for presentations (both oral and poster) to be held in March 28-30, 2019 at the DoubleTree Hilton Hotel, Birmingham, AL. In addition, keynote sessions, tutorials including "single-cell genomic data analysis", expert panels, career development sessions, and round-table discussions will be available to all registered attendees. Attendees will share and discuss novel ideas on emerging topics related to genomics, bioinformatics, biocomputing, medical informatics, algorithmic/database development, applied statistics, bioengineering, data sciences, and their relevant precision medicine applications in disease and consumer health. We welcome researchers in all stages of career, from students, postdocs, junior faculty, and experienced researchers, to disseminate late-breaking interdisciplinary research work at this meeting. |
