RSG Italy is the local italian group of the ISCB Student Council. Our goals are thus aligned with those of the ISCB-SC, and aim to promote the development of the next generation of computational biologists and bioinformaticians.

Our activities include:

* Creating and maintaining a network of bioinformatics and computational biology students

* Provide the means for our members to get in contact and interact with senior members of the scientific community, as well as institutions

* Increase awareness about the role of bioinformatics and computational biology in the community

* Organize and/or participate in meetings where students can promote their work and exchange experiences with peers

* Organize tutorials and courses to assist members in the development of their bioinformatics/computational biology skills

* Provide a centralized source of information about career opportunities for students
