The Boston Computational Biology and Bioinformatics (BCBB) Meetup is a networking group for computational biologists in the Boston/Cambridge area. Thanks to the confluence of top universities, hospitals, research institutes, large pharmaceutical companies, and a vibrant biotech startup community, Boston has arguably the strongest CBB community in the nation. However, for practitioners of computational biology in Boston the landscape can appear siloed and unapproachable, perhaps due in part to the lack of a centralized networking group. The Boston CBB Meetup hopes to fill this void and act as a regular venue for computational biologists in the Boston area to meet, network, share information, and learn.

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.
This social event will be a little different as MTP Connect is bring along visiting delegation of folks in the biotech and medical sector from Australia to join us at Portico.
