*** MASAMB ***

Bioinformatics and statistical genetics, twin themes of the long-running 
series of annual MASAMB meetings, have gained huge impetus from 
large-scale genome sequencing projects and development of 
high-throughput biological assay systems, including gene-expression 
microarrays, high-throughput sequencing, proteomic and metabolomic 
technologies. These immense data resources, and the underlying 
complexities of molecular and cell biology, provide exciting research 
opportunities for numerate scientists.

With typically around 80-120 participants from mathematics, statistics, 
computer science, bioinformatics, biology and related fields, MASAMB 
meetings provide an intimate setting for exchange of ideas in 
methodological and applied research. Research students and scientists 
newly entering the field of genomic research are particularly welcome.

MASAMB 2015 will be held at the University of Helsinki in the centre of 
Helsinki, right next door from the Helsinki Cathedral. This year's 
meeting is the third of the series to be held outside the British Isles.
