WHO WE ARE?

We are a group of students and researchers who aim to bring together the community working on multiple areas of Computational Biology to promote collaboration, exchange of ideas, learning resources, training opportunities, etc. To do so, we collaborate with other groups of the ISCB Student Council to promote interaction among students pursuing research in the field of Bioinformatics and Computational Biology both in México and other parts of the world.

MISSION

Our mission is to promote the development of the next generation of Computational Biologists in México through encouragement of scientific events, networking opportunities, soft skill training, educational resources and career advice.
