Registration is now open for the ISCB Africa ASBCB 2013 Conference on Bioinformatics being held in Tunis, Tunisia, March 13th -15th, 2013.
The meeting will include topics of general interest in bioinformatics, with a special focus on the bioinformatics of African pathogens, vectors, and human genetics.
