Description
 
ISCB presents the eigth Rocky Mountain Bioinformatics Conference (Rocky ’10) in Snowmass/Aspen, Colorado from December 9-11, 2010. The meeting brings together computational scientists from around the world to share research results and build community.

A mixture of invited lectures, discussions on topics of special interest and short talks from many research groups fills the scientific program. Informal community building opportunities include discounted lift tickets and a catered off-site dinner.

The conference features keynote speakers, flash presentations and posters. Abstract submissions for oral and poster presentations are encouraged!

ACADEMIC RETREAT -- AN AFFORDABLE OPPORTUNITY

Plan an off-site retreat, bring your colleagues to Rocky and SAVE!

This is the perfect opportunity to roll your conference attendance funds into a very affordable academic group retreat experience in the spectacular setting of the Colorado Rocky Mountains - during ski season!

Rocky registration rates are among the most reasonable in computational biology and domestic travel fares are the lowest they have been in years.

Last year four schools from California to Indiana combined the experience of attending Rocky together with group activities on the slopes, at the hotel, and in Snowmass and Aspen Villages. Education and bonding were abundantly fun and memorable for all.

Rocky’10 is now offering academic retreats* the following group package benefits:

-One free student registration
-One free suite upgrade ($200 minimum savings)
-Two free lift tickets per group or $100 food & beverage credit at the conference hotel
-Special scheduling of flash presentations for all members of the group to ensure a full morning or afternoon can be spent outside the conference for a group activity (activity not included)

Contact Rocky@iscb.org for information or a customized package for your academic group today!

* Academic retreats are defined as a minimum of 10 or more paid attendees from the same school, staying in the conference hotel a minimum of two nights (single or double occupancy), and utilizing at least 5 sleeping rooms per night. All academic retreat offers noted above must be secured by November 9.
