Cutting-Edge DataVis Advances. Inspiring Life Science Breakthroughs.

 

If you're an ISCB member interested in visualization, we wanted to let you know that registration is now open for VIZBI 2025, the 15th international meeting on Visualizing Biological Data, taking place 8–11 April at the University of Cambridge, UK—and online.

VIZBI features a three-day workshop showcasing visualizations that are driving biological and biomedical breakthroughs, with talks from world-leading researchers across the life sciences. The program also covers emerging visual techniques for exploring complex data and communicating insights, with keynotes from Laura Garrison (U. Bergen, Norway), Tobias Isenberg (Paris-Saclay, France), and Marc Streit (JKU Linz, Austria).

Want to sharpen your DataVis skills, but can’t commit to a three-day event? Join the VIZBI Masterclass, an intensive, one-day training in foundational visualization methods, web-based visualization, data-driven storytelling, and complexity and aesthetics. Learn from leading practitioners Drew Berry (WEHI, Australia), Daniel Haehn (UMass Boston, US), Barbora Kozlíková (Masaryk U., CZ), Andy Lomas (Goldsmiths, UK), and Christian Stolte (Cellarity, US).

Undecided? Read the Nature News article about VIZBI, or ask a colleague who has attended. They'll confirm that attending VIZBI can accelerate your research by helping uncover insights buried in complex data.

As an ISCB member, you'll receive a 15% discount for both events. So, register now to secure your spot, connect with global thought-leaders, and explore visualizations that are transforming the life sciences. Upload your poster by 31 March so you can present your research at the workshop.
