Dear ISCB Members and Colleagues,

While early registration discounts are still available, we encourage you to register now to attend this 20th Anniversary ISMB conference July 15-17, 2012, in Long Beach, California (optional pre-conference special interest and satellite meetings, tutorials, and the student council symposium begin July 13th). The link below will take you to a page full of details, including options, pricing, and the early registration discount deadline, as well as to the online registration form itself.

ISMB 2012 Registration

The Conference Schedule for this ISMB is nearly complete, and you can now begin planning which talks most interest you based on your specific area of investigation (please note the accepted Technology Track presentations are yet scheduled but should become available on the website soon). The Program menu of the site includes links to specific details about the conference tracks and sessions, which you might find helpful if the detailed agenda is insufficient. And finally, the General Info page includes links to helpful information such as housing, tourist info, and the availability of child/dependent care to ensure your conference experience is both successful and enjoyable.

Registered conference attendees are encouraged to book hotel accommodations very soon. The city is expected to sell-out due to ISMB and other events taking place before and after our meeting. ISMB has blocked a limited number of discounted rooms at the Hyatt Regency Long Beach, which is connected to the Long Beach Convention Center and is serving as our Headquarters Hotel. Full details are available HERE, and rooms are only available until our room block is filled, or June 18th, whichever comes first. To take advantage of the conference rate of $169.00 single occupancy, plus taxes (currently 15.1%) for a stay anytime between July 7th and July 20th, book online at https://resweb.passkey.com/go/ISMB2012LB.

Help us spread the word by tweeting about your participation using #ismb. You are also invited to follow us on Twitter @ISMBinfo where we will begin posting news and updates about conference specifics very soon.

The ISMB 2012 Conference Co-Chairs and every member of the Scientific Organizing Committee look forward to welcoming you to Long Beach soon!

Sincerely,

ISMB 2012 Conference Co-Chairs:
