Hi all,

The "Computational Modeling in Biology" Network (COMBINE) is an initiative
to coordinate the development of the various community standards and
formats in systems biology and related fields. COMBINE 2021 will be a
workshop-style online event with oral presentations, breakout sessions and
tutorials. The five meeting days will include talks about the COMBINE
standards and associated or related standardization efforts, presentations
of tools using these standards, breakout sessions for detailed discussions
as well as tutorials.

COMBINE 2021 will be an online (virtual) meeting from October 11th (Monday)
to October 15th (Friday). It will provide a schedule which takes into
account all time zones around the world, a real 24 hour conference. The
meeting will be free of charge.

IMPORTANT DATES

Registration deadline: 10th Sept 2021 (extended)
Abstract/breakout/tutorial submission deadline: 10th Sept 2021 (extended)
Notification of acceptance of abstracts/breakout/tutorial: 17th Sep 2021
COMBINE Workshop: 11-15 October 2021

REGISTRATION

CALL FOR ABSTRACTS
----------------------------------
We solicit high-quality abstracts, to be refereed by the COMBINE
Coordinators, for online presentation at the Workshop. Abstracts will
appear on the COMBINE website only, there will be no formal publication.

CALL FOR BREAKOUT SESSIONS
------------------------------------------------
All attendees can suggest breakout sessions for detailed discussions of
certain aspects of one or several of the COMBINE standard(s), discussions
on metadata and semantic annotations (format-specific or overarching),
discussions on the application and implementations of the COMBINE
standards, or any other topic relevant for the COMBINE community. The
topics for those breakout sessions, and the time slots which would suit
their communities can be submitted at the link below.
