Unlock biological secrets and interpret big data
Bioinformatics is a constantly evolving interdisciplinary field that develops methods and tools for understanding biological data, particularly large and complex data sets.

AMSI BioInfoSummer is returning to an in-person conference in 2022! (virtual participation also available). Hosted by Melbourne Integrative Genomics at The University of Melbourne, participants will develop their bioinformatics skills, national networks and employability.

The four-day program includes presentations and specialist lectures from international speakers and Australia’s top mathematical scientists, introductory hands-on afternoon workshops, an interactive careers advice session and networking events.

The AMSI BioInfoSummer 2022 conference brings together advanced undergraduate and postgraduate students, early-career researchers and professionals from mathematics, statistics, data science, biology, biomedicine and computer science to explore bioinformatics under the following themes:

High-resolution biology
Genome architecture
Whole-cell modelling
Populations
