Abstract/Overview
The GW Bioinformatics Symposium on April 29, 2025, a full-day event is designed to bring together bioinformatics researchers, researchers who use bioinformatics in their labs, faculty, staff, and students from across GW to foster networking, collaboration, and knowledge exchange. The symposium will feature talks from GW labs that focus on bioinformatics and related research, poster presentations, roundtable discussions, and sessions on funding and career opportunities in bioinformatics. Topics will span bioinformatics, computational methods, IT/security, and training, highlighting the breadth of bioinformatics in various GW schools and centers. This event offers a unique opportunity for attendees to engage in meaningful discussions, explore potential collaborations, and stay informed about the latest advancements in the field. The symposium is a great way to connect with the GW bioinformatics community.
Poster
Participants are invited to submit a brief poster abstract by March 31st at 11:59 PM (ET). A select few will be chosen for lightning talks. Due to the limited number of poster boards, priority will be given to ensure each lab/group has at least one designated board. We encourage submissions from bioinformatics labs and also other labs that do not primarily focus on bioinformatics but have research relevant to bioinformatics topics. If the number of submitted poster abstracts exceeds the available poster boards, additional posters may be printed as flyers with QR codes, enabling attendees to scan, view, or download them electronically.
