Abstract Deadline (consideration for a talk): August 28, 2026

Abstracts for poster presentations will be accepted until October 1, 2026

We are pleased to announce the seventh meeting on Biological Data Science, which will begin on Wednesday, November 4 at 7:30 p.m. and conclude with lunch on Saturday, November 7, 2026. The scope of the Biological Data Science meeting will be the infrastructure, software, and algorithms needed to analyze large data sets in biological research. We welcome abstracts from researchers in both academia and industry who work on technical aspects of the discussion topics in all areas of biology, from genomics to imaging. We also welcome abstracts from translational and clinical researchers who regularly mine large data sets as part of their projects. The goal is to assemble a multidisciplinary audience that will discuss best practices, identify challenges, and highlight successes in the analysis of large biological data sets.

Financial Support: The James P. Taylor Foundation for Open Science will award six scholarships to outstanding graduate students in genomics and data sciences: 3 will cover conference registration and transportation, and 3 will cover conference registration only. Online application will open on July 13th. The deadline for applications is August 5th. For details and application instructions, visit .

Discussion Themes:

• Algorithmics
• Population Genetics and Personalized Medicine
• Machine Learning
• Tools, Visualization, and Infrastructure
• Functional Genomics
• Spatial Genomics and Spatial Biology

Abstracts should contain only new and unpublished material and must be submitted electronically by the abstract deadline. Selection of material for oral and poster presentations will be made by the organizers and individual session chairs. The status of abstracts (i.e., talk or poster) will be posted as soon as decisions have been made by the organizers. Please bring this announcement to the attention of any of your colleagues who may be interested in participating in the meeting.

All questions pertaining to registration, fees, housing, meals, transportation, visas, abstract submission or any other matters should be directed to Kelley McGrath.
