UC San Diego and SDSC Host International Conference on Intelligent Systems for Molecular Biology
|
The Eighth International Conference on Intelligent Systems for Molecular Biology (ISMB 2000) is scheduled for August 19-23 at UC San Diego in La Jolla, California. With over 800 registrants anticipated and more than 140 papers, ISMB 2000, hosted by SDSC and UC San Diego, promises to be the largest ISMB meeting yet.
"The conference provides a general forum for disseminating the latest developments in bioinformatics. "This event is a multidisciplinary conference that brings together scientists from computer science, molecular biology, mathematics, and statistics," said SDSC's Phil Bourne, co-chair, along with fellow SDSC computational biologist Michael Gribskov, of the Local Organizing Committee for ISMB 2000. "The papers this year reflect recent advances in technology, particularly in the area of DNA microarrays, as well as our efforts, in silico, to represent complex biological systems."
ISMB 2000 will include discussions on the interpretation of large-scale gene expression data, whole genome comparative analysis, mathematical modeling of biochemical pathways, interpretation of large macromolecular assemblies using data at different resolutions, and many other topics. (v4.8)
