The countdown is on for GIW XXXI/ISCB-Asia V (https://www.iscb.org/giw-iscb-asia2022) in Tainan, Taiwan from Dec 12 to 14, 2022

GIW, also known as the International Conference on Genome Informatics started more than 30 years ago as the Genome Informatics Workshop in Japan where it was held several years before becoming an international conference. The scope of GIW covers all areas of bioinformatics and medical informatics; traditionally with some emphasis on the application of computer science theoretical methods to genome informatics.

ISCB-Asia is one of the regional conferences which ISCB holds to promote computational biology research and communication throughout the world. To date most ISCB-Asia conferences have been collaborative efforts, with ISCB contributing a global perspective to the vibrant regional communities in Asia.

Don't miss the intensive programme heading to Taiwan, register today.
