To conduct a Technology Track presentation, organizations must complete the on-line sign-up form (accessed via the blue submission button). This form requires a brief description (50 words maximum) of the talk and a one (1) page Technology Track presentation overview (PDF), which will provide delegates with additional details about the technology being presented. A one (1) page CV of the presenter must also be included, outlining experience as related to the topic. The presenter of the Technology Track must be a registered and paid delegate of the conference.
Prior to submitting please review the ISCB Exhibitor and Technology Track guidelines for presentations available here.
The Technology Track allows organizations to showcase their software and/or hardware relevant to the bioinformatics/molecular biology community.
ISCB strongly prefers that submissions accepted for oral presentation be presented in-person at the conference venue. We understand that some presenters will have good reasons to avoid in-person attendance. ISCB will grant remote presentation options for reasons associated to maternity/paternity leave, care for a family member, personal/medical disability, sickness, or visa problems. Presenters are expected to attend in person unless genuine barriers exist. Inability implies circumstance, not choice. If unable to participate in-person you will need to request a waiver by writing This email address is being protected from spambots.
