The fourth annual Ohio Collaborative Conference on Bioinformatics (affiliated and co-sponsored by ISCB) will be hosted by Case Western Reserve University on June 15-17, 2009.

The conference provides an interdisciplinary forum for the discussion of methods, research findings, and experiences.

An important goal for the conference is to foster long-term collaborative relationships and networking opportunities within the domain of computational approaches to biology that benefit Ohio.

The Regional Student Group for Ohio organized a session on Wednesday the 17th featuring the top students from different Bioinformatics Labs across Ohio. The students will present their research in form of a lightning talk to provide an overview of the different Bioinformatics research initiatives conducted across Ohio.
