Pacific Symposium on Biocomputing

项目摘要 太平洋生物计算研讨会（PSB）是一个多学科的会议，涵盖了当前的生物计算领域。 应用于重要生物学的计算方法的理论和实践的研究 问题PSB 2020 - 2024将是该系列的第25至29次会议。 每年2月，与会者为将于2010年12月15日至16日在日内瓦举行的公共广播机构会议提议会议和讲习班。 一月之后。面对激烈的竞争，5至6节课和2至4个工作坊 选择了这些会议和讲习班通常由青年科学家组织， 开发新的研究领域。因此，PSB提供了早期认真检查的机会 新兴的研究领域。PSB还为年轻科学家提供了获得 这一活动对职业生涯有很大的推动作用。我们的目标是让会议涵盖新兴领域， 让大家关注最新的发展。这种自下而上的众包 这种方法很好地揭示了这一领域的最新发展。 会议组织者选出的一名代表对会议作了简短的介绍 随后是一位知名度很高的演讲者，通常是生物学家，提供了一个概述，强调了 研究领域的重要性。接下来，根据接受的论文进行4到8次演讲。 这些论文发表在PSB会议录中，开放获取，并被PubMed索引。 提交的论文经过严格审查，通常≤ 30%被接受。最新的- 发展讲习班为未来奠定了基础。此外，会议还有两个主题 演讲者和持续运行的海报会议。寄生虫与共生体研究奖 是公共广播事业的一项新的活动。根据参与者的反馈意见，公共广播服务不断得到改进; 将给出这种改进的具体例子。 PSB会议受到高度重视。PSB Proceedings在生物信息学中排名第17位 Google Scholar Citation Statistics的期刊;它是唯一的计算生物学/生物信息学 与该领域排名前20位的期刊会议论文集会面。高 对会议及其程序的重视证明了PSB非常重要的影响。PSB继续 通过提供重要的， 对新兴领域的重要影响，因此值得支持。

PROJECT SUMMARY The Pacific Symposium on Biocomputing (PSB) is multidisciplinary conference covering current research in the theory and practice of computational methods as applied to significant biological problems. PSB 2020 – 2024 will be the 25th to 29th meeting of this series. Each February, participants propose sessions and workshops for the PSB meeting to be held the following January. In the face of stiff competition, 5 to 6 sessions and 2 to 4 workshops are chosen. These sessions and workshops are often organized by young scientists who are developing new research areas. Thus, PSB provides early opportunities for serious examination of emerging research areas. PSB also provides young scientists the opportunity to gain a significant career boost by this activity. Our goals are for sessions to cover emerging areas and for workshops to bring attention to very newest developments. This bottom-up, crowdsourcing approach has worked well to reveal the newest developments in this field. A chosen representative of the session organizers gives a short introduction to the session followed by a high-profile speaker, typically a biologist, provides an overview highlighting the importance of the research area. Next, 4 to 8 talks based on accepted papers are delivered. These papers are published in PSB proceedings, are open access, and are indexed by PubMed. Submitted papers are rigorously reviewed, with typically ≤ 30% being accepted. The newest- developments workshops lay the groundwork for the future. In addition, the meeting has 2 keynote speakers and a continuously running poster session. The research parasite and symbiont awards are a new addition to PSB activities. PSB has continually improved from participant feedback; specific examples of this improvement will be given. The PSB meeting is highly regarded. The PSB Proceedings is ranked 17th among bioinformatics journals by Google Scholar Citation Statistics; it is the only computational biology/bioinformatics meeting with a conference proceedings that ranks among the top 20 journals in the field. The high regard for the meeting and its proceedings attests to PSB's very significant impact. PSB continues to foster the development of computational biology and bioinformatics by providing important, critical exposure to emerging areas and thus deserves support.
