As the annual flagship conference of ACM SIGBio (Special Interest Group in Bioinformatics, Computational Biology, and Health Informatics), the ACM International Conference on Bioinformatics, Computational Biology, and Health Informatics (ACMBCB) is aimed to provide an interactive forum that bridges computer science, mathematics, statistics, with biology and health. Its mission is to supportadvanced research, training, and outreach. It brings together top researchers, practitioners, and students around the world to share innovative discovery, advanced development and delivery of informatics solutions to promote computational science, engineering for national health and biological advancement for societal impact. The ACMBCB2022 will be in Chicago IL during Aug. 7th-Sept. 01, 2023. This NSF grant will provide travel and registration support for up to 10 students (graduate, undergraduate, and high school) to attend the conference. The students will need to submit a short description about their on-going academic study and motivation for attending ACMBCB2022 (suggested to follow NSF Intellectual Merit, Broad Impact summary), plus supporting information such as a biosketch, a photo, and a letter of support from their advisor/mentor for selection. In addition, this NSF grant will broaden the diversity of participation from underrepresented groups (women, minority, and disabled) to enhance the community-building beyond the conference.The 21st century is witnessing many transformations enabled by innovations happening at the interface of molecular biology, medicine, health, with statistics, computer science, data science, informatics, cloud computing, and AI. Thus, it is critical to cultivate the new culture when training younger generations. ACMBCB2022 will provide systematically organized activities such as workshops, tutorials, oral sessions, and poster sessions for researchers and practitioners from different disciplines to interact, to discuss, and to collaborate. NSF support will maximize both learning and research outcomes of students. Not only they will learn novel advancements in bioinformatics, computational biology, and health informatics from the conference and improve their knowledge, but also they will share their own research ideas in Student Forum to gain visibility and feedback. In addition, because underrepresented minority groups (women, minority, and students with disabilities) have relatively low participation, ACMBCB2022 will continually promote diversity in participation through both Student Forum and “Women in Bioinformatics” organization. Senior researchers will be invited to provide feedback , and to share experience and wisdom in career development to continually build the community throughout the year.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

作为ACM SIGBio（生物信息学，计算生物学和健康信息学特别兴趣小组）的年度旗舰会议，ACM生物信息学，计算生物学和健康信息学国际会议（ACMBCB）旨在提供一个互动论坛，将计算机科学，数学，统计学与生物学和健康联系起来。它的使命是支持先进的研究、培训和推广。它汇集了世界各地的顶尖研究人员，从业者和学生，分享创新发现，先进的开发和信息解决方案的交付，以促进计算科学，国家健康工程和生物进步的社会影响。ACMBCB 2022将于8月7日至9月在伊利诺伊州芝加哥举行。2023年1月1日这项NSF拨款将为最多10名学生（研究生，本科生和高中生）参加会议提供旅行和注册支持。学生需要提交一份关于他们正在进行的学术研究和参加ACMBCB 2022的动机的简短描述（建议遵循NSF智力优势，广泛影响摘要），以及支持信息，如biosketch，照片和来自他们的顾问/导师的支持信。此外，该基金还将扩大代表性不足的群体（妇女、少数民族和残疾人）参与的多样性，以加强会议以外的社区建设。21世纪世纪正在见证许多变革，这些变革是由分子生物学、医学、健康与统计学、计算机科学、数据科学、信息学、云计算和人工智能等领域的创新所实现的。因此，在培养年轻一代的同时，培养新的文化至关重要。ACMBCB 2022将为来自不同学科的研究人员和从业人员提供系统组织的活动，如研讨会，辅导，口头会议和海报会议，以互动，讨论和合作。 NSF的支持将最大限度地提高学生的学习和研究成果。他们不仅将从会议中学习生物信息学，计算生物学和健康信息学的新进展并提高他们的知识，而且他们将在学生论坛中分享自己的研究想法，以获得可见性和反馈。此外，由于代表性不足的少数群体（妇女，少数民族和残疾学生）的参与程度相对较低，ACMBCB 2022将通过学生论坛和“生物信息学中的妇女”组织继续促进参与的多样性。高级研究人员将被邀请提供反馈，并分享职业发展的经验和智慧，以持续建设社区全年。这个奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并已被认为是值得支持的评估使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查标准。
