Exploring Montréal from Home It’s sad that we cannot be gathered together in Montreal to experience the city, our science, and see our friends and colleagues. To help ease the pain, Tourisme Montréal has compiled a list of some of the best online activities, including virtual city tours, music, games and more which feature the city. ISMB will be going back to Montreal in 2024 but until then, enjoy these activities. |

Highlights ISMB 2020 opened with a bang. The conference opening keynote was Elaine Mardis who gave an engaging and enthusiastic keynote address on Computational Analysis in Pediatric Cancer Precision Medicine. The day then dove right into the new and exciting world of a virtual conference with a vast array of sessions, tracks and channels. ISCB Town Hall ISMB marked the largest attended ISCB Town Hall in its history with over 250 attendees joining to hear about the state of ISCB which is strong even in the face of these unprecedented times. |
