There's one month left to submit your nomination for the ISCB awards! These awards shine a light on the remarkable work being done across our community, honoring researchers, mentors, innovators, and leaders whose contributions are strengthening and advancing the field of computational biology and bioinformatics.

We invite you to reflect on the colleagues, collaborators, and mentors whose work deserves recognition, and consider them for one of the four annual ISCB Awards:

  • ISCB Accomplishments by a Senior Scientist: Honors a scientist more than two decades post-degree whose long-standing leadership and research have made major contributions to the field.
  • ISCB Innovator Award: Recognizes a leading scientist 10–20 years post-degree whose work demonstrates consistent, outstanding contributions and forward-thinking innovation in computational biology.
  • ISCB Outstanding Service Award: Celebrates someone whose exceptional service, leadership, mentoring, or community contributions have meaningfully strengthened the computational biology community.
  • ISCB Overton Prize: Recognizes an early- to mid-career scientist who has already made a significant contribution to computational biology.

If someone has inspired you, supported your work, or helped advance the field through their leadership, creativity, or service, we encourage you to submit a nomination!

Submission Deadline: Monday, December 7, 2026
