Computational Biology Symposium
Lausanne, DCB- UNIL, 9-10 September, 2027
This Symposium brings together computational biologists from different fields to highlight the transversal nature of their work, with a particular focus on the methods they use, including mathematical modelling, statistics and AI. By connecting seemingly distant fields, the meeting aims to foster new collaborations and spark innovative ideas. One of the sections is dedicated to Alma Dal Co research areas.

Hosted by the Department of Computational Biology at the University of Lausanne, the symposium will take place in a friendly and relaxed environment on the shores of Lake Geneva, offering plenty of opportunities to exchange ideas with colleagues and new connections.
The Symposium is organized by Sven Bergman, SIB Group Leader, and Robin Hofmeister.
