BCBB takes over Fresh Pond Beer Garden courtesy of DNANexus!

On October 5th at 6pm, join your BCBB friends again for free food and drinks, kindly provided by DNANexus! Meet new people in your field or catch up with old friends. Chat with the DNANexus team to learn about what they're up to.

We'll be socializing with our fellow compbios and our sponsors at the Fresh Pond Beer Garden, a great outdoor location with (gasp) easy parking, a short walk from Alewife Station on the red line.

All computational biologists and bioinformaticians are welcome 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 compbio triumph and woe over free drinks and food.

Look for a roped-off area full of nerdy-yet-friendly people.
