Eilat, Israel. The meeting will be held jointly with the 9th Israeli 
Bioinformatics Symposium.

Leading researchers and practitioners in computational biology, 
bioinformatics, and bio-IT, from Europe and around the world, will 
gather at ECCB '06 for four days of presentations, poster sessions, 
workshops, software demonstrations, and professional discussions

** Keynote speakers (confirmed)

Prof. Naama Barkai, Weizmann Institute of Science
Prof. Richard Karp, University of California, Berkeley
Marc Vidal, Ph.D., Harvard Medical School
