Dear Colleague,
Submission deadlines for Late Posters and Technology Track presentations for ISMB/ECCB 2013 are approaching. The conference provides a multidisciplinary forum for disseminating the latest developments in bioinformatics/computational biology. Please consider sharing your work!
The Late Poster submission deadline is Friday, April 19.
< learn about late poster submission here >
Posters submitted may cover any area of computational biology or bioinformatics. We also encourage submission of purely experimental work and experimental posters should be submitted to the category most accurately reflecting the area of this work and will be displayed accordingly. Posters must include original work that is unpublished or published after August 1, 2012.
Technology Track submission deadline is Friday, April 26.
< learn about Technology Track submission here >
The Technology Track allow organizations to showcase their software and/or hardware relevant to the bioinformatics / molecular biology community.
Additional upcoming submission opportunities/deadlines:
Art & Science Exhibition: May 13
The ISMB/ECCB 2013 Conference will be held July 21-23 at the ICC Berlin, Germany.
ISMB/ECCB 2013 registration is open.

Dear ISCB Student Council members,
The submission deadline for abstracts for the Student Council Symposium 2013 has been extended!
The Submission Deadline is today, April 22 !
< Submit your abstract here >
The Student Council Symposium is a forum for students, post docs, and young researchers in the fields of Computational Biology and Bioinformatics. Participants have the opportunity to present their work to an international audience, build a network within the computational biology community and develop important soft skills in an environment that fosters exchange of ideas and knowledge.
We encourage you to submit an abstract and to bring a poster showcasing your work at the Symposium's Poster session. As a central part of the Symposium, ten abtracts will be selected for an oral presentation. We accept abstracts covering both scientific studies as well as novel tools and appllications in th efield of computational biology and bioinformatics.
Travel fellowships will be available for accepted abstracts, and awards will be given to the best posters and presentations.
The Student Council Symposium will be held on July 19 in Berlin, immediately preceding ISMB/ECCB 2013.
An Early Registration discount is available until June 7th.
