About BSB 2023

The Brazilian Symposium on Bioinformatics (BSB) is an international conference that covers all aspects of Bioinformatics and Computational and Systems Biology. The initial editions of BSB, in 2002, were called WOB (Workshop on Bioinformatics) and were indexed by DBLP; since 2005, WOB was renamed BSB. BSB is organized by the special interest group in Computational Biology (CE-BioComp) of the Brazilian Computer Society (SBC).

As in past years, BSB 2023 will accept both full papers (for oral presentation) and short papers. Proceedings containing accepted full and short papers will be published as a volume in the Lecture Notes in Bioinformatics series, from Springer. BSB 2023 would like to attract contributions from academic and industrial researchers, both in the exact sciences (computer science, mathematics, and statistics) and in the life sciences (molecular biology, biochemistry, genetics, medicine, microbiology, and others).

BSB and X-Meeting

The BSB 2023 will be co-located with the X-Meeting 2023, which takes place between June 13th and 16th. BSB subscribers will have the right to participate in the X-Meeting and vice versa.
