BCBB at Cafe ArtScience courtesy of DNAnexus

Join us for a special BCBB summer networking reception at Cafe ArtScience in Kendall Square courtesy of DNAnexus with free food and open bar.

Thursday August 22nd at 5:30PM, the gang from DNAnexus will be hosting a special summer edition of the meetup. Come join your comp bio and bioinformatics colleagues from across the greater Boston area for a night of comp bio shop talk and networking. DNAnexus has generously offered us an open bar for the beginning of the event. DNAnexus's user event DNAnexus Connect is coming up soon, see below for information and a special offer for BCBB members.

All computational biologists and bioinformaticians are welcome at the meetup regardless of skill level, from lifelong hardcore professionals and academics to people who are starting to think about learning just enough programming to make science go faster. See old friends, mentors, students, and make new connections while sharing tales of comp bio triumph and woe over free drinks and food.

We'll be in the private event space (The Honeycomb) at Cafe ArtScience, conveniently located in the heart of Kendall Square -- ask for Boston Comp Bio at the host stand when you arrive.
