The International Society for Computational Biology (ISCB) is pleased to announce the Fellows Class of 2015. Fellow status is conferred to ISCB members that have distinguished themselves through outstanding contributions to the fields of computational biology and bioinformatics. The ISCB Fellows program began in 2009, and 43 members have been conferred with this status to date. Eight fellows have been selected for this year’s Fellows class, and they will be introduced and profiled at the 2015 ISMB/ECCB meeting in Dublin, Ireland in July.
