[6月7-8日]Tsinghua International Bioinformatics Workshop

[讲座通知]Tsinghua International Bioinformatics Workshop

Tsinghua International Bioinformatics Workshop is organized by Institute of Bioinformatics, Tsinghua University. This workshop is totally dedicated to scientific communication for researchers at the cutting edge of progress in bioinformatics and related research areas. The topics of this workshop will focus on computational genomics, computational proteomics, computational systems biology and biological data mining. We hope this workshop will provide a chance for researchers from all over the world to exchange their ideas and improve the cooperation.

Keynotes and invited speakers will be announced as we receive confirmations.

This is the second meeting of this workshop series after a successful meeting at the Fundan University from Dec. 17 to Dec. 19, 2003. More information about the previous meeting of this workshop series, please check out Fudan International Bioinformatics Workshop.

Look forward to seeing you in Beijing in June.
