As in previous years, we are again planning to assemble a "top 10 papers reading list" in Regulatory and Systems Genomics. Our goal is to identify seminal papers that introduced not only new biological insights, but also key computational methodologies for interpreting biological datasets that we except to have a lasting impact in the field of Computational Regulatory and Systems Genomics. Relevant areas include Motifs, Grammars, Networks, Systems, Variation, Disease, Personal Genomics, GWAS interpretation, Regulatory Evolution, Comparative Genomics, Epigenomics, Physical Modeling, Dataset Integration, Splicing Regulation, Transcriptional Regulation, and all areas of gene and genome regulation at the systems level.
Based on feedback from the community, we modified the format and the timeline of the competition in order to encourage more participation, focus on the papers that are most relevant to our community, and remove any perceived biases during the nomination and voting processing.
The new nomination process is as follows:
Voting will start on August 2, 2019 and will be open until November 4, 2019 (the first day of the 2019 RECOMB/ISCB RegSys meeting). Winners will be announced on the last day of the 2019 RECOMB/ISCB RegSys meeting.
We note that if less 25 nominations are received, then we will not move on to the voting phase. So please also encourage your colleagues and collaborators to nominate their papers for the competition.
