Would you like to present your latest results? The scien­tific committee invites you to submit abstracts of lectures and posters from data science, imaging, infra­structure & services, medical infor­matics, modeling, omics, single cell research, struc­tural biology, and other fields. The abstracts should comprise one page for a poster and two pages for a presen­tation. Abstracts that cannot be considered for presen­ta­tions can be subse­quently considered for posters; if corre­spon­dingly marked, they will be automa­ti­cally trans­ferred.

The abstracts for presen­ta­tions can be submitted until 6 May 2024, the submission of poster abstracts will close on 7 August 2024
