Intelligent Biology and Medicine in 2016: Advancing Interdisciplinary Education, Collaboration, and Data Science

国际智能生物学和医学会议(ICIBM)旨在为推动信息科学、技术和教育向不同和不同的受众，包括实习生、教师、科学家和工程师创造机会，并为思想的交流提供一个论坛。ICIBM 2016促进了对具有前沿技术和知识的新一代生物信息学、系统生物学和智能计算科学家的教育，并促进了复杂生物系统以及翻译、农业、环境、制药、动物学和数据科学的信息学研究。在大数据时代，现在是推动数据科学、分子生物技术、基因组学和系统生物学的基本概念的时候了，研究人员寻求在多个层面上了解活体，探索细胞系统中复杂和动态的功能和调节，并改进算法、计算工具、知识库和生物技术，以更好地诊断、预防和治疗疾病。该中心的支持将为一些机会提供资金，包括促进跨学科和多学科的教育和研究，特别是对妇女、少数群体和残疾学生等代表性不足的群体的教育和研究，以及引入新的倡议和前沿合作。通过接纳代表性不足的学生和其他受训人员对教育和多样性的承诺，以及会议-S独特的培训机会，推动了由少数民族学生组成的文化和职业多元化受训人员委员会的建立。这一奉献精神，与S大会独特的培训机会相结合，使ICIBM 2016成为一个前所未有的平台，为跨学科和多学科科学领域的不同学生提供高等教育平台。

The International Conference on Intelligent Biology and Medicine (ICIBM) aims to create opportunities for advancing information science, technology, and education to a varied and diverse audience, including trainees, faculty, teachers, scientists, and engineers, and to provide a forum for the cross-fertilization of ideas. ICIBM 2016 promotes the education of next generation of bioinformatics, systems biology, and intelligent computing scientists with frontier technologies and knowledge, as well as advances informatics research in complex biological systems and translational, agricultural, environmental, pharmaceutical, zoological, and data sciences. In the era of big data, it is the time to promote the fundamental concepts of data science, molecular biotechnology, genomics, and systems biology for researchers seeking to understand living organisms at multiple levels, to explore complex and dynamic functions and regulation in cellular systems, and to improve algorithms, computational tools, knowledgebase, and biotechniques for better diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of diseases. Support of ICIBM will fund opportunities that include the promotion of interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary education and research, especially for underrepresented groups, such as women, minorities, and students with disabilities, and the introduction of new initiatives and cutting-edge collaboration. The commitment to education and diversity through the inclusion of underrepresented students and other trainees, as well as the conference?s unique training opportunities, drives the establishment of a culturally and professionally diverse Trainee Committee comprised of minority students. This dedication, in combination with the conference?s unique training opportunities, makes ICIBM 2016 an unprecedented platform for higher education of diverse students in interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary scientific fields.
