<pre>
The ISMB conferences began in 1993 and were the driving force behind the
founding of the International Society for Computational Biology
(www.iscb.org) in 1997, which has been organizing this conference ever
since. ISCB is the only society representing computational biology on a
worldwide scale and its flagship conference ISMB has become the largest
conference on computational biology worldwide. ISCB continues to see
ISMB as its major flagship annual event.

ISMB 2008 will be held at the Metro Toronto Convention Centre in
Toronto, Canada. The conference will feature an exciting scientific
program including scientific tracks, posters, demonstrations, and
featuring ten internationally renowned keynote presenters.
