Booth 201 & 300 - International Society for Computational Biology (ISCB)
www.iscb.org
The International Society for Computational Biology (ISCB) (www.iscb.org) was the first and continues to be the only society representing computational biology and bioinformatics worldwide. ISCB serves a global community of nearly 3,000 scientists dedicated to advancing the scientific understanding of living systems through computation by:
- convening the world’s experts and future leaders in top conferences
- partnering with publications that promote discovery and expand access to computational biology and bioinformatics
- delivering valuable information about training, education, employment, and relevant news
- providing an influential voice on government and scientific policies that are important to our members
ISCB’s two official journals –
Bioinformatics and
PLOS Computational Biology – have the highest impact factors in the Mathematical & Computational Biology category and we have affiliations in place with several other publications for the benefit of our members.
