BioInference brings together researchers from statistics and mathematical modelling who work on biological systems, creating a lively space for exchanging ideas, sparking collaborations, and building community across all career stages.

After last year’s successful three-day meeting in Bardonecchia, we’re excited to return with another three days packed with invited and contributed talks, poster sessions, and dedicated networking opportunities.

We now invite submissions for oral or poster presentations on any work involving mathematical modelling, statistical methods, or machine learning approaches for broadly interpreted biological problems. All presentations will be in person with no parallel sessions. 

Abstract deadline: 31 January 2026
Submit here: Abstract Submission Link

We are delighted to host an exceptional line-up of invited speakers:

• Marta Belchior Lopes (Universidade NOVA de Lisboa)
• Sokratia Georgaka (University of Manchester)
• Jochen Kursawe (University of St’ Andrews)
• Theo Kypraios (University of Nottingham)
• Sara Wade (University of Edinburgh)
• Michael Whitehouse (Imperial College London)
• Konstantinos Zygalakis (University of Edinburgh)

Registration for the conference will open soon. The registration fee (covering three lunches and all coffee breaks) is expected to be around £100.
