Bioinformatics week in Odaiba 2012（BiWO2012）

Pre-registration will be closed at 9 am. 24th Oct.
REGISTRATION ON THE DAY is available

Odaiba, Tokyo is a popular place with beautiful views of the Tokyo bay waterfront area. In Odaiba, there is the Computational Biology Research Center (CBRC), Japanese national institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology (AIST), which is Japan’s leading research center for bioinformatics. BiWO is a closely-packed series of meetings focused on bioinformatics including CBRC’s annual workshop as the central part. BiWO’s reputation as a good meeting on bioinformatics has been well established. As the year 2012 is the 6th BiWO, the BiWO2012 program committee now plans many invited lectures and so on, which should be more attractive than past BiWOs.
