1. SMPGD'20, les 23 et 24 janvier 2020, à Paris The 2020 edition of the Statistical Methods for Post Genomic Data (SMPGD) workshop will take place at Institut Pasteur in Paris on 23-24 January. The workshop aim is to present works from mathematical to applied statistics, but also new areas in high throughput biology that could need new statistical developments: The 2020 edition is organized by the Bioinformatics and Biostatistics Hub (Institut Pasteur) and the main topics are: Evolution of inter-species interactions, Machine learning algorithms for computational biology, and Evolution and epidemiology. The workshop will feature 4 keynote speakers: * Simona Cocco (École des Neurosciences Paris Ile de France, Paris) * Julia Gog (University of Cambridge, Cambridge, UK) * Louis Lambrechts (Institut Pasteur, Paris) * Laurent Jacob (CNRS, LBBE, Université Lyon 1, Lyon) Attendance is free, but registration is mandatory on the conference website. Registration deadline is January 7, 2020. Submissions for posters and short talks are open and will close on November 15, 2019 at 23:59 pm. Abstracts selected for a short talk will be announced on December 15, 2019. **********
2. AICoB 2020, du 13 au 15 avril 2020, à Missoula, Montana, USA 7th INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON ALGORITHMS FOR COMPUTATIONAL BIOLOGY - AlCoB 2020 Co-organized by: Department of Computer Science, University of Montana, and Institute for Research Development, Training and Advice, Brussels/London AIMS: AlCoB aims at promoting and displaying excellent research using string and graph algorithms and combinatorial optimization to deal with problems in biological sequence analysis, genome rearrangement, phylogeny reconstruction, and structure prediction. Previous events were held in Tarragona, Mexico City, Trujillo (Spain), Aveiro, Hong Kong and Berkeley. The conference will address several of the current challenges in computational biology, with topics including: 1) assembling sequence reads into a complete genome, 2) identifying gene structures in the genome, 3) recognizing regulatory motifs, 4) aligning nucleotides and comparing genomes, 5) reconstructing regulatory networks of genes, and 6) inferring the evolutionary phylogeny of species. Special focus will be put on methodology and significant room will be reserved for scholars at the beginning of their career. VENUE: AlCoB 2020 will take place in Missoula, Montana, a college town located in the heart of the Rocky Mountains, near Glacier National Park and Yellowstone National Park. The meeting will be hosted in the University Center, a few hundred feet from the base of Mount Sentinel. SCOPE: Topics of either theoretical or applied interest include, but are not limited to: Sequence analysis Sequence alignment Sequence assembly Genome rearrangement Regulatory motif finding Phylogeny reconstruction Phylogeny comparison Structure prediction Compressive genomics Proteomics: molecular pathways, interaction networks, mass spectrometry analysis Transcriptomics: splicing variants, isoform inference and quantification, differential analysis Next-generation sequencing: population genomics, metagenomics, metatranscriptomics, epigenomics Genome CD architecture Microbiome analysis Cancer computational biology Systems biology STRUCTURE: AlCoB 2020 will consist of: invited lectures peer-reviewed contributions posters SUBMISSIONS: Authors are invited to submit non-anonymized papers in English presenting original and unpublished research. Papers should not exceed 12 single-spaced pages (all included) and should be prepared according to the standard format for Springer Verlag's LNCS series (see http://www.springer.com/computer/lncs?SGWID=0-164-6-793341-0). Upload submissions to: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=alcob2020 PUBLICATIONS: A volume of proceedings published by Springer in the LNCS/LNBI series will be available by the time of the conference. A special issue of a major journal will be later published containing peer-reviewed substantially extended versions of some of the papers contributed to the conference. Submissions to it will be by invitation. REGISTRATION: The registration form can be found at: https://alcob2020.irdta.eu/registration/ DEADLINES (all at 23:59 CET): Paper submission: December 2, 2019 Notification of paper acceptance or rejection: January 6, 2020 Final version of the paper for the LNCS/LNBI proceedings: January 13, 2020 Early registration: January 13, 2020 Late registration: March 30, 2020 Submission to the journal special issue: July 15, 2020 QUESTIONS AND FURTHER INFORMATION: david@irdta.eu **********
3. EPICLIN 2020 / 27ièmes Journées des statisticiens des CLCC, du 13 au 15 mai 2020, à Angers 14ième Conférence Francophone d'Epidémiologie Clinique & 27ièmes Journées des statisticiens des Centres de Lutte Contre le Cancer Rendez-vous incontournable, la conférence conjointe EPICLIN et les Journées des statisticiens des CLCC réunit des épidémiologistes, des statisticiens et des cliniciens investis dans le champ de la recherche clinique et de la biostatistique, toutes thématiques confondues. Ces rencontres favorisent le rapprochement entre les communautés afin de partager les dernières avancées scientifiques, de nouer des collaborations et de susciter le montage de nouveaux projets. La prochaine édition de ce congrès joint aura lieu les 13, 14 et 15 mai 2020 à Angers, au sein de la Faculté de santé située en centre-ville (Rue Haute de Reculés). Ces journées seront l’occasion d’appréhender de nouvelles approches méthodologiques dans des champs très divers ainsi que l’illustre la liste des thématiques sélectionnées par le Comité Scientifique pour une conférence invitée : • Session inaugurale sur la thématique de la causalité, • Innovations en recherche clinique (stepped-wedge cluster randomized trials, master protocols), • Prévention, • Psychométrie – mesure de concepts subjectifs, • Données en grande dimension Outre les présentations données par des conférenciers internationaux et nationaux, des communications orales et des posters permettront aux chercheurs de présenter leurs travaux. Des bourses destinées aux jeunes chercheurs (<=35 ans) récompenseront les meilleures présentations orales et posters. Des bourses « Pays à ressources limitées » seront attribuées à des chercheurs de ces pays dont le résumé sera retenu par le Comité Scientifique (ces bourses comprendront l’inscription gratuite au congrès et une participation aux frais de déplacement et d’hébergement sur présentation de justificatifs).

4. SAMO 2020, du 15 au 19 juin 2020, à Parme, en Italie The Joint Research Centre of the European Commission and the Department of Economics and Management of the Parma University (Parma, Italy) are organising the Eleventh Summer School on Sensitivity Analysis of Model Output (SAMO 2020) which will be held in the building of the department of Economics and Management of the Parma University (Via John Kennedy, 6, 43125 Parma (PR), Italy), June 15-19, 2020: The school illustrates the motivations to conduct sensitivity analysis on simulation models and offers an accessible treatment to the techniques used in global sensitivity analysis. The program begins with the first principles of sensitivity analysis and guides the student through the full range of recommended practices with exercises and application examples. The scientific programme covers topics such as: introduction to SA and overview of techniques, uncertainty analysis, sensitivity analysis, graphical methods, derivative-based measures, high dimensional model representations, variance-based and screening methods, polynomial chaos expansions, sensitivity analysis with given data, sensitivity measures for correlated inputs, practicum, exercises for students, round table with selected case studies from students. A preliminary list of instructors is: Andrea Saltelli (University Autonoma de Barcelona - University of Bergen), William Becker (JRC), Stefano Tarantola (JRC), Rossana Rosati (JRC), Daniel Albrecht (JRC), Thierry Mara (JRC, University of La Réunion), Ivano Azzini (JRC), Marco Riani (University of Parma), Sergei Kucherenko (Imperial College London), Ricardo Bolado (JRC), Elmar Plischke (Clausthal University of Technology). You can submit your application by sending your CV and a motivation letter to: ec-sensitivity-analysis@ec.europa.eu The deadline for submitting applications is December 31 2019. The organising committee will not accept late candidatures. The school can accommodate up to 25 participants. Successful candidates will be informed not later than 31 January 2020. The school is free. The students will have to cover their own travel and accommodation expenses. **********
