5th Probabilistic Modeling in Genomics Conference (ProbGen19)

From October 6, 2019 to October 9, 2019

Centre Paul Langevin (CNRS) in Aussois (French Alpes)

The Ecofect Labex is sponsoring the 5th Probabilistic Modeling in Genomics Conference (ProbGen19), that will be held in Aussois, France, from October 6th to 9th, 2019.

The conference will cover a wide variety of topics in genomics, ranging from population genomics to systems biology and cancer genomics, with a particular focus on the use of novel mathematical and computational models and inference methods to address timely and important biological questions. What makes the meeting special, in our view, is that it has substantial mathematical and theoretical depth yet remains well grounded in the practical and scientific concerns of modern genomics. We invite abstract submissions on a range of topics including functional genomics, molecular evolution, phylogenetics, epidemiology, methods for genome-wide association studies, quantitative genetics, etc...
 
We will have three keynote speakers:
  • Sohini Ramachandran (Brown University, Providence, USA)
  • Gil McVean (Big Data Institute, University of Oxford)
Alongside invited speakers, oral presentations will be selected from submitted abstracts. We particularly encourage abstract submissions from junior investigators, including postdoctoral fellows and graduate students.

Registration deadline: 6 September 2019
