Please note: Due to a significantly higher number of submissions than we typically receive, it is taking a bit more time than expected to review and decide upon submissions. Thank you in advance for your patience and understanding.
Proceedings Paper Submissions
Bioinformatics Advances Journal has committed to considering publication of a special issue for peer-reviewed articles from the conference.
Bioinformatics Advances will have the opportunity to review the papers and provide comments. We will give authors one month to reply to comments in order to have the list of accepted proceedings papers at the end of September. Outstanding proceedings papers will be selected for featured talks (15 total minutes in length with 2 minutes reserved for Q&A).
Authors are responsible for the processing charges associated with the publication of the proceedings paper. The processing charges are:
CC BY license (non-member): $2,620
CC BY license (ISCB member): $2,077
Free developing country charge*: $0

Please note, abstracts are not limited to the listed conference topics and if the topic of your submission falls outside the listed ones you can choose the "General Computational Biology" area. Your abstract should convey a scientific result and should not be an advertisement for any commercial software package. Commercial software packages wishing to present at the conference should contact This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.

Abstracts for Oral Presentation and/or poster submissions to ISCB-LATAM SOiBiO CCBCOL 2024 should be approximately 400 words and have no figures. Adding references to already published papers is recommended where appropriate. Submission deadline in Easychair is https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=iscblatamsoibioccbco24
For a variety of reasons, ISCB-LATAM SOiBiO CCBCOL 2024 strongly prefers that scientific research accepted for oral presentation be presented in-person at the conference venue. We understand that some presenters will have valid reasons to avoid in-person attendance. ISCB will grant remote presentation options for reasons associated with maternity/paternity leave, care for a family member, personal/medical disability, sickness, financial hardship, or potential visa problems. If your research is accepted for oral presentation and you are unable to present in person, ISCB-LATAM SOiBiO CCBCOL 2024 requires notification at the time of acceptance and no later than September 30, 2024. You will be asked during your confirmation of participation to confirm your in-person participation. If unable to participate you will need to request a waiver by writing This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.
Any abstracts submitted after the deadline will be included only at the discretion of the conference chairs, and will be eligible for poster presentations only. Please also note that we can only allow one abstract per presenting author.
All talks will be recorded and available to participants as well as included in a live broadcast schedule as part of the virtual platform. All schedules will be posted on the ISCB-LATAM SOiBiO CCBCOL 2024 website.
In-Person Poster Hall: When preparing accepted posters please note that your printed poster should not exceed the following dimensions: 1.1 meters x 1.5 meters. There will be 1or 2 poster per side on the each poster board. Additionally, we ask that you also follow the Virtual Poster Theater information below in addition to your in-person presentation. This ensures all posters are viewable to both in-person and virtual attendees thus providing more exposure to your work.
Virtual Poster Theater: When preparing accepted posters please note that your poster will need to be uploaded via the virtual platform portal in two formats - a PDF of the poster and a 5-7 minute flash talk video not to exceed 100MB. Poster portal information will be sent to all approved posters closer to the conference and after the notification deadline. All presentations MUST be uploaded on specific dates the week of October 30 - November 5*. More specific dates will be given closer to the conference.
*Late Breaking posters will have a very short turn-around.
Authors selected for presentation (talk or poster) will be required to register for the conference.
Poster Submission Deadline is September 30, 2024
Please note: the official language of the conference is English.

*Dates subject to change without notice
Why aren't extensions allowed?
Every file that's uploaded needs to be processed, that's a video from every virtual talk, a video and/or PDF from every in-person poster, and a video and a PDF from every virtual poster. This takes a substantial amount of time on top of travelling to the venue (often internationally), setting up the venue, coordinating volunteers, opening the virtual platform, troubleshooting attendees who try to access said platform, printing delegate name tags, preparing opening slides, organizing awards, identifying dietary requirements, running pre-conference tutorials, processing recordings from completed tutorials, answering questions from delegates who are arriving at the venue, organizing all other ongoing ISCB conferences and affiliated events, and continuing day-to-day upkeep for the Society. These deadlines don't exist in a vacuum which is why they're broadcast as early and often as they are.
Please note: Due to a significantly higher number of submissions than we typically receive, it is taking a bit more time than expected to review and decide upon submissions. Thank you in advance for your patience and understanding.
