        Download list of posters

        Tips for using the Poster Gallery:

        • Search posters by keywords, topics or session.
        • Mark your favourite posters with a little *star* - they will be added to your agenda.
        • Read the comment box below the poster abstract to see if the author left some additional information, or post a question if you have one.
        • Click on “Virtual room” above the poster to join the poster presenters in their virtual room (not active yet). Virtual presenters will be in their room during the respective poster session. To discuss with an on-site presenter, use the comment box to schedule a meeting in the virtual room.

      • The industry exhibition gives you the chance to discover companies and initiatives in the field of bioinformatics, and more specifically personalized health, biocuration and data integration, digital health and many more.
