Travel Support: 9th International Symposium on Bioinformatics Research and Applications

生物信息学研究与应用国际研讨会（ISBRA）已进入第9个年头。今年的会议将在北卡罗来纳大学夏洛特分校举行，这是一所新兴的研究型大学，自2004年以来在生物信息学的研究和教育项目上投入了大量资金。生物信息学研究与应用国际研讨会（ISBRA）将有助于最新研究成果的快速传播，并促进具有多学科专业知识的研究人员之间的合作，以分析现代生物学研究中积累的大量数据集。会议内容将涵盖从比较和功能基因组学到系统生物学、人口生物学和遗传学的各种主题。ISBRA将为研究生和博士后学者提供重要的形成经验，帮助他们成为该领域未来的领导者。2013年，当其他流行的生物信息学会议在美国以外举行时，ISBRA将为资源有限的美国学生和pi提供一个宝贵的机会来展示研究并与同事互动。

The International Symposium on Bioinformatics Research and Applications (ISBRA) is in its 9th year. This year's meeting will be held at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte, an emerging research university that has invested substantially in the development of research and educational programs in Bioinformatics since 2004. The International Symposium on Bioinformatics Research and Applications (ISBRA) will contribute to the rapid dissemination of latest research results and to foster the formation of collaborations between researchers with the multidisciplinary expertise required to analyze the enormous datasets accumulated in modern biological research. The conference content will encompass diverse topics from comparative and functional genomics, to systems biology, to population biology and genetics. ISBRA will provide important formative experiences to graduate students and post-doctoral scholars, helping them to become future leaders in the field. In 2013, when other popular bioinformatics conferences are being held outside the US, ISBRA will provide a valuable opportunity for resource-limited U.S.-based students and PIs to present research and interact with colleagues.
