PSB 2004 Registration Opens & ISCB Travel Fellowships Offered

Registration for the Pacific Symposium on Biocomputing (PSB), to be held January 6-10, 2004 at the Fairmont Orchid Hotel on the Big Island of Hawaii is now open at psb.stanford.edu/. Once again ISCB members are offered a $100 registration discount, and ISCB is offering a limited number of travel fellowships to member students and post docs who are presenting papers or posters.

As in the past, PSB 2004 will bring together top researchers from the US, the Asian Pacific nations and around the world to exchange current research in the theory and application of computational methods in problems of biological significance. PSB is a forum for the presentation of work in databases, algorithms, interfaces, visualization, modeling and other computational methods, as applied to biological problems, with emphasis on applications in data-rich areas of molecular biology.

ISCB student and postdoc members in need of travel funding assistance to attend PSB 2004 are encouraged to apply for one of the limited travel fellowships from ISCB. An application form is available at www.iscb.org/ftravel_fellowship_form.php and the deadline to apply is September 12, 2003. Announcement of awards will be made no later than October 1, 2003.
