DataX-QCBio Symposium: AI to Advance Biology

In this second annual event, DataX and the Institute for Quantitative and Computational Biosciences are focused on AI-powered research in Biology by the people who actually do it: Faculty in the trenches, PhD students, postdocs, and other researchers. The symposium will feature a series of short talks with plenty of time for discussion including a casual lunch to cross-pollinate and be inspired. 

All talks will be selected from abstracts submitted through the event registration form. Please submit abstracts for Lightning Talks or Full Presentations by March 8. (Note: The deadline was extended from March 1 to March 8.) 

To submit an abstract: register for the event and select "Yes, I am interested in presenting" under the Call for Talks in section 2 of the registration form. You will be able to enter abstract details into that section as well.

If you are interested in attending but not presenting, you will be able to select that option as well.
