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.
There are multiple ways to participate in BioVis through conferences and ongoing events. This year, the main BioVis event will be at ISMB as a Community of Special Interest (COSI) in July 13, 2022 in Madison, WI, USA (or virtual). A smaller workshop event will be held at IEEE VIS on Oct 16, 2022 in Oklahoma City, OK, USA (Hybrid). These events serve as a platform for researchers from biology, bioinformatics, and information visualization fields to increase the impact of data visualization approaches in biology, and to initiate interdisciplinary collaborations. Get involved in our events at a conference or challenge (or all three!).
We are excited to host Martin Krzywinski (@MKrzywinski). Check Martin’s website for inspiration.
For the March ‘22 BioVis meetup we’ll have a discussion of current methods and open challenges towards making sense of spatial biological data.
For the January’22 BioVis meetup we’ll have a presentation and chat with Matthias Stahl from DER SPIEGEL. Matthias is a PhD scientist, founder of design studio higsch, and now co-lead of Graphics & Interactive department at a leading German weekly. Matthias will describe his route from bacteria and childhood cancer to political news and how this is all connected by his passion for data and visualizations.
BioVis 2022 is an official part of ISMB 2022
