Dear all,
Registrations are now open for the
5th BioInference conference, taking place at the University of St Andrews between 10 and 12 June 2026.
Launched in 2022, BioInference aims to bring together researchers from across statistics and mathematical modelling who work with biological systems, and from all career stages, to foster discussions between the two communities and to prompt collaborations.
We are excited to welcome you to a three-day conference featuring 40 invited and contributed talks (single-track, no parallel session!). In addition to the diverse programme of talks, the conference includes:
-
a poster session on Wednesday afternoon,
-
a session with industry and non-academic partners from Vici.bio, Cancer Research Horizon, Firefinch and Fios Genomics on Thursday afternoon,
-
optional evening social activities to explore the local culture of St Andrews, its rich golf history, and the Scottish traditions of whisky and gin tasting on Wednesday evening,
-
a conference dinner on Thursday evening (£30)
The registration fee is set as £70 and it covers lunches and coffee breaks during the three days of the conference. Some of the optional social activities on Wednesday afternoon involve additional fees. You can find out more and indicate your preferences
on the registration page. Registration for the conference dinner is optional and it costs £30.00.
