Research in the biological and health sciences has been characterized by the introduction of novel technologies for investigations of molecular machineries, where a huge amount of data coming from experiments or medical practice has been stored in novel databases; new algorithms for studying functions, structures, interactions of proteins and genes, and classification of patients into disease subgroups that shares a common biological basis of diseases have been introduced; and almost all "omics" areas have been touched by new data sources with large repositories, new computational tools and applications powered by new algorithms. The ACM Special Interest Group on Bioinformatics, Computational Biology, and Health Informatics (SIGBio; http://www.sigbioinformatics.org/) was instituted in 2010 with the aim of focusing on research on bioinformatics data management topics, with a focus on bridging computational, statistical and mathematical sciences with biology and biomedicine. The ACM-Bioinformatics and Computational Biology meeting will provide a platform for researchers to bridge interdisciplinary research and also provide mechanisms to promote diverse and broad participation, especially through travel support for graduate students and young investigators.

生物和健康科学研究的特点是引进了用于研究分子机制的新技术，其中来自实验或医疗实践的大量数据已存储在新的数据库中；引入了新的算法来研究功能、结构、蛋白质和基因的相互作用，并将患者分类为具有共同疾病生物学基础的疾病亚组；几乎所有的“组学”领域都被大型存储库的新数据源、新的计算工具和由新算法驱动的应用程序所触及。美国计算机学会生物信息学、计算生物学和健康信息学特别兴趣小组（SIGBio; http://www.sigbioinformatics.org/）成立于2010年，旨在重点研究生物信息学数据管理主题，重点是将计算、统计和数学科学与生物学和生物医学联系起来。acm -生物信息学和计算生物学会议将为研究人员提供一个跨越跨学科研究的平台，并提供促进多样化和广泛参与的机制，特别是通过对研究生和年轻研究人员的旅行支持。
