The International Society for Computational Biology is awarded a grant to support student and early-career researcher participation in the annual meeting on Intelligent Systems for Molecular Biology in Long Beach, CA, July 15-17. The conference holds thematic sessions for invited presentations, tutorial programs on related subjects, and special interest group workshops. Cutting-edge bioinformatics areas presented at the conference include bio-imaging and visualization, databases and ontologies, evolution and comparative genomics, gene regulation and transcriptomics, mass spectrometry and proteomics, population genomics, protein interaction, and molecular networks and structure. This award will assist students and postdoctoral researchers, particularly under-represented minorities, at a critical but resource-limited stage in their careers by partially funding the travel and expenses associated with attending the conference. Through their participation, these students will have the opportunity to be exposed to leading edge research and methods, gain introductions to international and world-renown keynote speakers and senior level scientists, seek out prospective postdoctoral and collaborative opportunities, and meet their peers from all over the world. Results will be disseminated as published proceedings indexed in MEDLINE and Current Contents, and video recordings of selected presentations will be available online.

国际计算生物学学会获得一笔赠款，以支持学生和早期职业研究人员参加7月15日至17日在加利福尼亚州长滩举行的分子生物学智能系统年会。会议举行专题会议，邀请演讲，相关主题的辅导计划，和特殊兴趣小组研讨会。在会议上提出的前沿生物信息学领域包括生物成像和可视化，数据库和本体论，进化和比较基因组学，基因调控和转录组学，质谱和蛋白质组学，人口基因组学，蛋白质相互作用，分子网络和结构。该奖项将帮助学生和博士后研究人员，特别是代表性不足的少数群体，在他们的职业生涯中的关键但资源有限的阶段，部分资助与参加会议有关的旅行和费用。通过他们的参与，这些学生将有机会接触到前沿的研究和方法，获得国际和世界知名的主讲人和高级科学家的介绍，寻求未来的博士后和合作机会，并满足来自世界各地的同行。研究结果将作为MEDLINE和Current Contents中索引的已出版会议记录进行传播，并将在网上提供选定演讲的视频记录。
