During the three days of the CIBB 2023 conference, RSG-Italy is organising the RSG-Italy Young Symposium including short sessions of flash talks. The goal of these sessions is to provide a supporting and stimulating forum for early researchers, from undergraduate to postdoc, to briefly present their research and to connect with the community of computational biologists and bioinformaticians.

The sessions are programmed during the conference days so that all interested attendees and experienced researchers will be able to participate and give precious feedback and support to the presenters.

The presented work can be a specific project the researcher has worked on (or is working on if it is in progress) or more generally a presentation on their research topic and goals.

To participate submit your short abstract (maximum 350 words) by 31 May 30 June 2023: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=cibb2023
