Wednesday 20th October, 2004
The 2nd Young Bioinformaticians' Forum will take place in Oxford, UK on Wednesday October 20th 2004 at the prestigious Said Business School. YBF is organised by the Royal Society of Chemistry Molecular Modelling Group and the Oxford Bioinformatics Forum.The program includes competitive oral paper presentations sessions (prize £250) for the Young Bioinformatician of the Year award with invited talks on areas of Systems Biology, Microarrays and Clustering, Protein Evolution and Interactions. There is also the YBF Poster competition (prize £100) which is open to new submissions until October 10th, 2004. Many abstracts are already available online at http://ybf.org/cgi-bin/show_abstracts.cgi There is no early registration deadline but there are a limited number of places so do register soon. Delegates such as interested PhD students, post-docs and more senior scientists who work in bioinformatics and related fields such as molecular biology are welcome to attend as spectators. The meeting also provides a forum for academic researchers and industry innovators to network and make contacts. Proceedings of the meeting will be available online. The purpose of these meetings is to raise awareness of the growing importance of bioinformatics in all areas of biomedical research, both pure and applied, and to provide a forum for young researchers to present their latest research to an audience of peers and potential employers, both academic and industrial. Meetings draw many PhD level bioinformaticians from a wide area of bioinformatics, including contributions in the areas of sequence analysis, structural bioinformatics, and algorithm development.
