Center for Algorithmic Biotechnology of Saint Petersburg State University invites you to attend the conference "Bioinformatics: From Algorithms to Applications" that will take place at the Saint Petersburg State University, Russia on August 1-3, 2017 and will be followed by a 2-day (August 4-5, 2017) hands-on workshop focusing on various SPAdes tools including SPAdes, metaSPAdes, rnaSPAdes, plasmidSPAdes, etc as well as QUAST, metaQUAST, and rnaQUAST. Modern life science studies involve both biological and computational methods. Breakthrough results in these fields can only be achieved by tight communication and knowledge exchange between the two sides. The conference aims to bridge bioinformatics methods for genome, metagenome, transcriptome and immune repertoire analysis with the requirements of biological applications. The conference welcomes contributions describing the challenges and latest applications of bioinformatics algorithms in the following fields: - Sequencing technologies - Molecular sequence analysis - Computational genomics - Genome assembly - Transcriptomics - Metagenomics - Immunogenomics Invited Speakers: Prof. Jillian Banfield, University of California, Berkeley Prof. Mikhail Gelfand, Moscow State University Dr. Nikos Kyrpides, Joint Genome Institute Dr. Nicholas Loman, University of Birmingham Dr. Jared Simpson, Ontario Institute for Cancer Research Dr. Adam Phillippy, National Human Genome Research Institute, NIH Dr. Dominique Lavenier, French National Center for Scientific Research |
