Selected Papers from the 19th International Conference on Bioinformatics (InCoB 2020)

Dear Colleagues,

The 19th International Conference on Bioinformatics (InCoB 2020) will be held virtually from Nov 25–29, 2020 across Asia-Pacific and beyond. The event webpage is: https://incob.apbionet.org/incob20/.

InCoB has been held annually since 2002. Originally organized through coordination between the Asia Pacific Bioinformatics Network (APBioNet) and the Thailand National Center for Genetic Engineering and Biotechnology (BIOTEC) in 2002, the meeting has since been the flagship conference of the APBioNet. InCoB 2020 has taken on the theme of “Bioinformatics and the translation of data-driven discoveries”.

The deadline for submissions is a tentative one and will follow InCoB 2020 dates preferably (12 August—26 September, 2020). Here we will send each manuscript for peer-review as soon as we receive it, and have it published as soon as it is accepted after peer-review. A broad area of topics will be covered in the current edition: https://incob.apbionet.org/incob20/call-for-papers/.
