ALPHY is an annual meeting, organized in France since 1995, dedicated to
the field of Bioinformatics and Comparative Genomics (ALPHY = ALignments
and PHYlogeny). The main goal of this meeting is to promote informal
communication in this highly multidisciplinary field, and to encourage
young scientists to present their work.
This year, ALPHY is co-organized by Spanish and French scientists, in the
nice city of Banyuls, with the hope of enhancing scientific exchanges
between research groups of these two countries - and beyond. There will be
two invited speakers (Henrik Kaessmann and Jose Castresana), and the
program will be open for 25 to 30 contributions of 20' talks, plus possibly
posters.
Registration to the meeting is free, but mandatory. Please use the link
below to register. The maximum number of attendees is 120 (first come first
served). If you wish to present your work, please submit an abstract in the
registration form. Depending on funding, some budget might be available for
supporting the travel expenses of young speakers. Please indicate whether
you are asking for such a travel grant when registering.
Hasta pronto ! A bientôt ! See you in Banyuls!
