The Story Behind the ISMB/ECCB 2017 Logo

The ISMB/ECCB 2017 logo may appear to be “wrongly” twisted, but our intent was purposeful. This less frequent biologically relevant DNA form symbolizes ISCB's respect for minorities and its support of equal opportunity options in science. As an organization, we value diversity by striving for (towards) greater global diversity of our membership and leadership. We are aware and respect the many differences in culture, geographic origin, affiliation, gender, age, level of expertise and area of scientific research. ISCB strives as an organization to promote diversity and encourages the community to do the same.
