The BioVis meetings are intended to educate, inspire, and engage visualization researchers in problems in biological data visualization, as well as bioinformatics and biology researchers in state-of-the-art visualization research.

The BioVis Interest Group organizes the annual BioVis conference. In its first five years, these BioVis conferences were organized as 2-day SIGs (Special Interest Groups) alternating each year between IEEE VIS and ISMB.

In 2016, however, there will be two meetings; a workshop with IEEE VIS (BioVis@VIS), and a SIG meeting with ISMB (BioVis@ISMB)

The BioVis meetings are intended to educate, inspire, and engage visualization researchers in problems in biological data visualization, as well as bioinformatics and biology researchers in state-of-the-art visualization research. The workshops serve as a platform for researchers from these fields to increase the impact of data visualization approaches in biology, and to initiate interdisciplinary collaborations.
