Young Bioinformaticians Forum 2004 - 19th October 2004 - Said
Business School, Oxford, UK.
On the 19th of October 2004, the RSC Molecular Modelling Group (MMG,
http://www.rsc.org/lap/rsccom/dab/ind006.htm) and the Oxford
Bioinformatics Forum (OBF, http://www.bioinformaticsforumuk.net),
will jointly hold the second annual Young Bioinformaticians Forum
2004 (YBF). Attendance at the meeting will again also be free of
charge; attendees are only liable for their travel costs. The
winning speaker will receive a prize of £250.
Last year's meeting was a tremendous success, with over 60 attendees,
and the venue will again be the prestigious Said Business School in
central Oxford, which can be reached easily from the Oxford Park and
Ride and is located next to the Oxford railway station.
The URL for the meeting, which contains links to all last year's
talks, is: http://www.jenner.ac.uk/YBF/YBF.htm
We aim to attract the best pre-PhD bioinformaticians to speak and
attend the YBF from as wide an area of bioinformatics as possible,
including contributions in the areas of sequence analysis, structural
bioinformatics, database design, algorithm development, ontology,
molecular graphics, etc. YBF is inclusive, being open to applications
from current post-graduate students of all ages, from all
universities and all countries.
If you are a postgraduate student, I should like to invite you to
submit an abstract. If you are a supervisor, I should like to invite
you to nominate a graduate student to speak at the meeting, who
should then submit an abstract. Please submit abstracts by July 2nd
2004. The organizers will then shift through submitted abstracts and
select a balanced and appropriate agenda from these submissions.
