Opportunities for ECCB12
ECCB is the main European computational biology conference, gathering scientists from a broad range of disciplines. This event attracts more than 500 participants each year: leading bioinformatics researchers, computational biologists, bio-IT professionals, researchers in molecular biology, molecular medicine, biophysics, systems biology, as well as students from Europe and around the world.
The 11th European Conference on Computational Biology (ECCB12) will be organised in association with the 10th [BC]2 Basel Computational Biology Conference by the SIB Swiss Institute of Bioinformatics and the Biozentrum, University of Basel from 9th to 12th September 2012 at the Congress Centre in Basel, Switzerland.
ECCB provides unique opportunities for networking with key opinion leaders and decision makers in the field of computational life sciences, and offers sponsors and partners an ideal platform for demonstrating new software tools, services and technologies.
Meet the next generation of scientists: More than 500 motivated and skilled students from Europe and all over the world are expected – a great opportunity for meeting and recruiting the best talents in this highly competitive area. ECCB will support recruiting activities by providing logistical and infrastructure support (electronic job boards, meeting rooms, scheduling service).
Benefits for Sponsors and Partners
ECCB12 is a non-profit event, aiming to support the development of basic and applied research in the field of computational biology. A major goal is to enable participation by younger scientists early in their career, allowing them to discuss their research and to build their professional network. Organisation of ECCB12 is only possible with the help of sponsors and partners. The ECCB12 offers strategic opportunities to maximize visibility, reach leading scientists, showcase new products and services, and establish new strategic partnerships. All sponsors will be formally acknowledged in the conference programme and on the official website.
