WELCOME

INCLUDING

The CIGB's Direction of Biomedical Research invites you to attend the IX International Meeting on Bioinformatics and OMICs: BIOINFOMICs 2019, an International Meeting on Bioinformatics and OMICs which is going to be held in Cayo Santa María (23-27 October). 

 

BIOINFOMICs 2019 will be held from October 24 to 27, 2019 in Cayo Santa Maria. This new edition of OMIC aims to integrate Genomic and other omics-based approaches that are now widely used in biomedical research to facilitate the understanding of the mechanisms of disease and the identification of molecular targets and biomarkers for therapeutic development and diagnosis.

 

Nowadays, biomarkers are mainly molecular makers, such as genes, proteins, metabolites, glycans and other molecules, which can be used for the diagnosis of diseases, prognosis, prediction of therapeutic responses and therapeutic development.

 

Our meeting will bring together some of the world's leading researchers and specialists in these topics and will not only provide the opportunity for researchers and participants from around the world to share and discuss results and experiences related to these hot topics, but it will also provide a framework for establishing new international collaborations and eventually business opportunities.

WORKSHOP "Tools available for proteomic of 2020’s"  | 2 days, 23-24 October

        Sponsored by BMBF

        Thanks to Prof. Jacek Wisniewski from Max-Planck Institute for Biochemistry and CIGB
