Conference: Travel Grant for the 28th Annual International Conference on Research in Computational Molecular Biology (RECOMB 2024)

第28届计算分子生物学研究国际会议（RECOMB 2024）是计算、数学和生物科学的动态平台。RECOMB会议起源于1997年，为计算生物学的理论突破提供了一个科学平台，并在分子生物学和医学方面有实际应用。2024年RECOMB会议将于4月29日至5月2日在马萨诸塞州波士顿举行。美国学生参加会议的差旅费、注册费和住宿费将由校方提供。重点将放在提交论文或海报的参与者、代表性不足的群体或经历经济困难的群体。本次会议将为这些参与者提供宝贵的教育和研究经验，使学生能够分享他们的工作并与更大的社区互动。RECOMB 24将是一个会议式的活动，包括主题演讲、同行评审的研究论文报告、特别会议和海报展示。与会者将沉浸在计算生物学的最新进展中，这是一个快速增长的行业，涵盖制药、农业、环境、消费品、生物技术、软件、硬件和其他服务。对熟练的计算生物学家的需求不断增长，RECOMB提供了一个年度会议，学生可以接触到最新的发展和研究方法。这笔资金将为10名美国学生提供支持。遴选过程将由RECOMB会议主席根据提交的申请信监督。特别鼓励代表性不足群体的成员提出申请。该奖项反映了美国国家科学基金会的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。

The 28th Annual International Conference on Research in Computational Molecular Biology (RECOMB 2024) serves as a dynamic platform for computational, mathematical, and biological sciences. Originating in 1997, the RECOMB conference provides a scientific platform for theoretical breakthroughs in computational biology, with practical applications in molecular biology and medicine. The 2024 RECOMB conference will be held from April 29th to May 2nd in Boston, Massachusetts. Travel, registration, and accommodation expenses will be provided to US-based students to attend the meeting. Emphasis will be given to participants presenting a paper or poster, underrepresented groups or those experiencing financial hardship. This conference will provide a valuable educational and research experience for these participants, enabling students to share their work and interact with the larger community. RECOMB 24 will be a conference-style event with keynote addresses, peer-reviewed research paper presentations, special sessions and poster displays. Participants will be immersed in the latest advancements in computational biology, which is a rapidly growing industry spanning pharmaceuticals, agriculture, environment, consumer products, biotechnology, software, hardware, and other services. There is a growing demand for skilled computational biologists and RECOMB provides an annual meeting where students are exposed to the latest developments and research methodologies. The funding will provide support to 10 US-based students. The selection process will be overseen by the RECOMB conference chairs based on submitted letters of application. Members of underrepresented groups will be especially encouraged to apply.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.
