First Virtual SysMod (Systems Modeling Interest Group) Meeting at ISMB 2020

[SysMod: Systems Modeling Interest Group of the ISCB]

Dear colleagues,

We invite you to participate in the 5th Annual SysMod meeting at ISMB. As in previous years, the meeting will strive to share latest research on the development of comprehensive models of cells, tissue, and organisms that bridges systems biology and bioinformatics. The details of the meeting are below.  Because of the exceptional situation regarding the COVID-19 pandemic, the submission deadline has been postponed to April 30 and our conference will be entirely virtual. Talks will be given online with the ability to raise questions and discuss via a dedicated conference software. More information will follow soon. We hope to see you online.

Regards
