JOBIM

JOBIM JOBIM is the scientific yearly appointment of the French-speaking bioinformatics community. The official languages of the conference are English and French. It has been organized in Rennes this year from 3 to 6 July 2012 (P. Peterlongo, C. Lemaitre and teams Genscale and Dyliss) and chaired by F. Coste and D. Tagu (Inra). Invited speakers were David B. Searls, University of Pennsylvania, Hugues Roest Crollius, Ecole Normale Supérieure, Pierre Baldi, University of California in Irvine, Ivo Hofacker, Institute for Theoretical Chemistry, Toni Gabaldon, Centre for Genomic Regulation, Martin Vingron, Max Planck Institute for Molecular Genetics and Bertil Schmidt, Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz. The program contained 33 papers (acceptance rate 50%) grouped into ten scientific sessions including sequence analysis, the study of protein interactions, and works on regulation and evolution.

Ecole Jeunes Chercheurs en Informatique-Mathématiques (GDR IM)

The GDR Informatique Mathématique has organized a young researcher seminar from 19 to 23 March in Rennes (Chair: A. Siegel. Organization M.-N. Georgeault and E. Lebret) http://ejcim2012.irisa.fr . It gathered 93 participants and proposed several courses including biological sequence linguistics (J. Nicolas and F. Coste), time modelling for dynamic systemchecking (D. Eveillard) and practical applications of discrete dynamic systems (J. Bourdon and A. Siegel).
