QfO8: "Connecting communities in the quest for orthologs" - July 17-18,

Talk and/or Poster Acceptance Notifications: May 17, 2024

Confirmed Invited Speakers : Fiona Brinkman (Simon Fraser University), 
Elena Kuzmin (Concordia University), Markus Hecker (University of 
Saskatchewan), Christine Orengo (University College London).

Scope: The QfO Consortium addresses a key challenge in molecular 
evolutionary biology and strives to develop large-scale methods for 
inferring orthology among fully sequenced genomes, and to reconstruct 
the complement of protein-coding genes in common ancestral genomes 
across the tree of life. The QFO meetings aim to bring together 
disparate groups around the world that work in the field to accelerate 
progress through sharing of ideas, methods and research findings.  The 
particular aim of this QfO8 meeting is to gather an even more diverse 
set of end-users  and to connect different research communities that are 
rooted in orthology.

Travel and Caregiver Fellowships: Authors of accepted talks/posters will 
be eligible for travel and caregiver fellowships to attend the 
conference. The procedure for application will be communicated to the 
relevant people in the talk/poster acceptance email.

ISCB members can receive a 15% discount on registration rates.
