About

The NCCB Symposium is a one-day conference organized by students from UCSF, UC Berkeley, UC Santa Cruz, UC Davis, UC Merced and Stanford University. The conference will highlight current research and include student talks, a poster session, a keynote faculty speaker, an industry discussion panel and networking opportunities encompassing all fields related to computational biology.

We seek to facilitate knowledge sharing in an open and safe environment, bringing together students and post-docs in the computational biology community in the region to promote collaboration and exchange. Our effort to provide an open and welcoming community is outlined in a Code of Conduct we abide by.

The 2019 NCCB symposium will be held on Saturday October 12, 2019 in Gladys Valley Hall at UC Davis.
