Abstract

This editorial provides a brief overview of the 12th International Society for Computational Biology (ISCB) Student Council Symposium and the 4th European Student Council Symposium held in Florida, USA and The Hague, Netherlands, respectively. Further, the role of the ISCB Student Council in promoting education and networking in the field of computational biology is also highlighted.

Highlights

  • The Student Council (SC) of the International Society for Computational Biology (ISCB) is an international network of young researchers in computational biology and related fields

  • Through the provision of such events and other networking opportunities, and support to Regional Student Groups (RSG) across the world, the SC aims to promote the development of future researchers in the field

  • The Student Council Symposium (SCS) is the flagship event on the SC calendar. It started as a satellite meeting of Intelligent Systems for Molecular Biology (ISMB)/European Conference of Computational Biology (ECCB) in Madrid, Spain in 2005 and has grown to an annual event that is periodically complemented with the European Student Council Symposium (ESCS), the Student Council Symposium-Africa (SCS-Africa) and the Latin America Student Council Symposium (LA-SCS)
