Dear colleagues,
(apologies for possible multiple postings)

We invite you to attend COMBINE 2019, the 10th Computational Modeling in
Biology Network Forum:

== 15 - 19 July 2019, Heidelberg (Germany) ==
hosted by the Heidelberg Institute for Theoretical Studies (HITS)

Registration and abstract submission are now open:
http://co.mbine.org/events/COMBINE_2019

!! ONLY 10 DAYS TO GO FOR THE ABSTRACT SUBMISSION DEADLINE !!

The "Computational Modeling in Biology" Network (COMBINE) is an initiative to
coordinate the development of the various community standards and formats in
the life sciences, with special focus on systems biology, systems medicine,
synthetic biology and related fields. COMBINE 2019 will be a workshop-style
event with contributed and invited talks in the morning sessions and
interactive parallel breakout sessions on specific topics in the afternoons,
as well as poster sessions. The first day (July 15th) will be a scientific
colloquium day with keynote lectures and invited talks from renowned
speakers, as well as lightning talks selected from the submitted poster
abstracts. Contributed talks will be selected from the submitted abstracts
and some authors will be invited to submit a full paper manuscript for a
special issue of the Journal of Integrative Bioinformatics (JIB) on
specifications of standards in systems and synthetic biology.
