Welcome
Polish Bioinformatics Society (Polskie Towarzystwo Bioinformatyczne / PTBI) and Faculty
of Physics, Astronomy and Informatics, Nicolaus Copernicus University in Torun welcome
you to the 24th annual conference “BioInformatics in Torun – BIT24”. 2024 conference
will be held in Torun - the charming medieval hanseatic town in Poland. We plan to held this
meeting in a personal mode, but some lectures will be streamed by the web.
This year BIT24 will be devoted mainly, but not exclusively, to:
“BIT24: Bioinformatics aims Brains – understanding and education”
We invite PhD students to present their work during this year's flash talk session. Ten 5-minute presentations will be selected from those who apply.
Planned sessions:
-
Algorithms,
-
AI/ML,
-
Biomodeling,
-
Information flow in Biosystems,
-
Medical aspects and COVID,
-
What is a current state of education in bioinformatics in Poland (BSc, MSc, PhDlevels)?,
-
MISC.
The conference will start after lunch on June 6 (Thursday) and will end around lunch time
on June 8 (Saturday). On Saturday hands-on workshops in bioinformatics are planned.
We would like to discuss all aspects of bioinformatics research closely or remotely related to
human brain, including neuroinformatics, molecular diseases, memory formation, neural
networks, cancer, etc. Important session will be devoted to making bioinformatics to be more
attractive subject in students’ population in Poland.
See you in Toruń! :-)

All PhD students who received funding to participate in the MoDaL summer school can take part in it (if they have PhD student status). If someone is unable to attend the school, please contact the PROM coordinator.
Due to the postponement of the BIT20 conference to 2021, the MoDaL summer school will not take place together with this conference. Participants will be provided with other activities related to quantum chemistry and molecular modeling
According to coronavirus issue please do not pay conference fee. We will inform you about ne dates and deadlines soon. We will monitor situation with coronavirus pandemia and will send you information about MoDaL summer school.
Goal: increasing (satisfy) a general interest in the approaches for drug and protein modeling applied in the context of computer-aided drug design and developing the basic skills in the field of computational biochemistry for the unassisted simulation planning and realization in the group of PhD students
Participants of the MoDaL Summer School will take part in practical exercises during the first three and a half days. On Thursday afternoon and Friday they will take part in the BIT20 - BioInformatics in Toruń 2020 conference, which will take place for the twentieth time.
PhD students from outside Poland can apply for nine grants for accommodation and travel costs from the PROM programme iled by the Nicolaus Copernicus University. The amount of co-financing ranges from 5840 PLN (about 1360 EUR) to 9840 PLN (about 2300 EUR) (depending on the distance from Toruń). Applications for co-financing can be submitted on the website of PROM programme http://prom-umk.pl/ from 20 January up to 30 June 2020.
All participants are obliged to show a poster concerning their doctoral dissertation during the BIT20 conference.
