SIB NEWSLETTER - JUNE 2021

IN THIS ISSUE

Finally ! After over a year of day in, day out virtual meetings, we are happy to welcome you to an in-person event in Basel, our [BC]2 Basel Computational Biology Conference. Don’t miss the opportunity to attend this great moment of science and fun, and probably your first live event in a while. And take a look at our sponsorship/exhibitor opportunities below if you work in a potentially interested institution!

This edition of Swiss Bioinformatics will also bring you: our latest activity report including a focus on COVID-19 and on machine learning; surprising discoveries of peopling in the Pacific islands and in Greece; talks about new methods, tools and approaches; and a distinguished outreach project about evolution.

TAKING THE PULSE OF SIB

Our activity report is out: a year of Swiss data science for life, with a focus on Swiss bioinformatics contribution to fight COVID-19 and on machine learning applications
