The NCCB Symposium is a one-day conference organized by students from some of the major research universities of Northern California. This year the symposium will be held on Saturday, October 6th on the Genentech Hall auditorium at the University of California, San Francisco. The conference highlights current research in Computational Biology by students and post-docs. It will include student talks, a poster session, an industry panel, and unique networking opportunities. Our keynote speaker is Dr. Matthew Spitzer, Assistant Professor of Microbiology and Immunology at UC San Francisco.

We are also currently accepting abstract submissions, and strongly encourage you to submit an abstract for a talk or poster. This is an excellent opportunity to present your work and to learn about the research being conducted by your peers in the computational biology community.

We hope to see you at the symposium!
