 Dear all!
 
We would like to invite you to the DESIGN X BIOINFORMATICS workshop which will happen on Friday, 9th September 2022, 1-5 pm (UK time) in a hybrid format.
 http://desxbioinf.i2d.uk/ <http://desxbioinf.i2d.uk/>;
 
There will be in-person events at the Royal College of Art (School of Design) in London and at the CNRS (IBPC) in Paris and a Zoom session. Registration is required, but free of charge! In-person places are limited - first come, first serve!
 Register NOW for free:

If you think about Bioinformatics, probably not the first thing which comes to your mind is design, right? And vice versa.
 
But wait - what about illustration - and visualization? Is this the same as design? What about network layouts? What about colors when visualizing microscopic structures? What about dynamics in simulations? What about pioneers like David Goodsell - combining the world of science and illustration while pushing the boundaries forward  like only very few did in biomedical history (1st KEYNOTE)?
 
And the other way around, what implications might have approaches from the design world on Bioinformatics? What about the exciting work from people like Daria Jelonek from Studio Above&Below - designing and executing exhibitions - often data-driven and utilizing Augmented Reality technology - at renowned places in e.g. Hong Kong, Seoul, Wrocław, Milano, Berlin, and of course London (2nd KEYNOTE)?
 We will explore these questions in two sessions:
  *
    Bioinformatics 2 Design: A presentation session based on the just
    published DESIGN X BIOINFORMATICS special issue in the Journal of
    Integrative Bioinformatics.
  *
    Design 2 Bioinformatics: A hybrid interactive workshop session
    discussing future perspectives of DESIGN X BIOINFORMATICS based on
    the previous talks by using design methods!
 Registration Deadline: Wednesday, 7th September (midnight UK time)

This workshop was made possible through a collaboration between the Royal College of Art (London), CNRS (Paris), and Kyushu University (Fukuoka)!
 We are looking forward to seeing you online or in-person!
