Systims2017 - Ascona, Switzerland
The understanding of adaptive immunity is of paramount importance for human health and the prevention of disease. A full understanding of its complexity may only be gained by adopting a multi-scale systems approach that integrates high-throughput and computational methods. This conference will bring together established researchers and young scientists from different facets of the burgeoning field of systems immunology. Topics presented will range from data-driven mathematical modeling of the complex regulation of lymphocytes to the analysis of immune repertoires in health and disease. Systims2017 will be held from May 14 to 17, 2017 at the Conference Center Monte Verità, Ascona, Switzerland.

HiCOMB 2017: 16th IEEE International Workshop on High Performance Computational Biology - Orlando, FL, USA
The size and complexity of genome- and proteome-scale data sets in bioinformatics continues to grow at a furious pace, and the analysis of these complex, noisy, data sets demands efficient algorithms and high performance computer architectures. Hence high-performance computing has become an integral part of research and development in bioinformatics, computational biology, and medical and health informatics. The goal of this workshop is to provide a forum for discussion of latest research in developing high-performance computing solutions to data- and compute-intensive problems arising from all areas of computational life sciences. The workshop will take place on May 29, 2017 at Buena Vista Palace Hotel, Orlando, FL, USA.

EpiGeneSwiss 2017 meeting - Weggis LU, Switzerland
EpiGeneSwiss.ch is a network of young research groups working on chromatin biology, epigenetics and gene regulation in Switzerland. The network consists of recently established research groups at Swiss universities and research institutes and includes researchers working on various aspects of epigenetics and chromatin biology, ranging from basic to translational research, and spanning numerous model organisms. Yearly meetings are organised to bring together members of the network and international groups working in the field of chromatin biology, gene regulation and epigenetics. The meeting is open to EpiGeneSwiss members and non-member labs. It will take place from May 29 to 31, 2017 in Weggis LU, Switzerland.
