- No refund of fees will be made after November 1, 2024
*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.

WELCOME TO ISCB-LATAM SPBBC 2026!
ISCB-Latin America SoIBio CCBCOL Conference on Bioinformatics 2024, organized by the Colombian Conference for Bioinformatics (CCBCOL) together with the Iberoamerican Society of Bioinformatics (SoIBio) and the International Society for Computational Biology (ISCB) aims to promote scientific and professional exchange in bioinformatics across Latin America.
Bioinformatics brings together scientists from different disciplines, such as Biology, Computer Science, Informatics, Genomics, Mathematics, Statistics, Ecology, Medicine, etc, to solve relevant biological questions. This conference will provide a forum for rich interaction and to showcase scientific developments. Importantly, this event will help the Bioinformatics community strengthen interactions within Latin America, a region that has shown great potential in the area. Moreover, scientists with no or very little knowledge on bioinformatics will have the opportunity to learn about the new findings in the development of high-end tools for the analysis of their biological data.
The conference will feature:
- Invited speakers
- Roundtable networking discussions
- Talks selected from an open call for abstracts
- Workshops and Tutorials
ISCB-LATAM SoIbio CCBCOL 2024 is being planned as a dual channel distribution conference, offering both in-person and virtual attendance. We hope you can join us at the Universidad CES in Medellín, Antioquia, Colombia or consider joining virtual in the conference's robust platform.
Featured Topic Areas:
- Biomedical Omics
- Bioinformatics of Microbes and Microbiomes
- Evolutionary, Comparative and Population Genomics
- Macromolecular Sequence, Structure, and Function
- Genome Sequence Analysis
- Systems Biology and Networks
- General Bioinformatics/Computational Biology
