Conference on Models and Algorithms for Genome Evolution

基因组进化模型和算法(MAGE)是一个致力于基因组进化跨学科领域的国际会议。MAGE还在庆祝大卫·桑科夫50年的职业生涯，他是计算基因组学和生物学的先驱。计算进化生物学家社区由数学家、计算机科学家、统计学家、物理学家和生物学家组成，他们都愿意为更好地了解地球上的生命历史做出贡献。多种背景产生了多种方法，既有理论的，也有经验的。组织者代表了处于职业生涯不同阶段的不同国际研究人员。虽然高级和早期职业研究人员的核心已被邀请并接受，但这些资金将使多达20名学生和博士后能够参加会议。除了演讲和每日的海报会议，会议还将为施普林格出版的一本书提供投入，这本书的系列是计算生物学。

Models and Algorithms for Genome Evolution (MAGE) is an international meeting addressing the interdisciplinary area of genome evolution. MAGE is also celebrating the 50-year career of David Sankoff, a pioneer in computational genomics and biology. The community of computational evolutionary biologists is composed of mathematicians, computer scientists, statisticians, physicists and biologists, all willing to contribute to a better knowledge of the history of life on earth. The plurality of backgrounds yields a plurality of approaches, theoretical and empirical. The organizers represent a diverse international set of researchers at different stages of their careers. While the core of senior and early-career researchers have been invited and accepted, these funds will enable up to 20 students and postdocs to participate in the conference. In addition to the presentations and daily poster sessions, the meeting will also provide input to a book to be published by Springer in its series Computational Biology.
