The ACM Special Interest Group on Bioinformatics, Computational Biology, and Biomedical Informatics (SIGBioinformatics; http://www.sigbioinformatics.org/) has been instituted in 2010 with the aim of focusing on theory and practice of processing, storing, analyzing, mining and knowledge management of biological and biomedical data. The mission of ACM SIGBioinformatics is to support advanced research, training, and outreach in Bioinformatics, Computational Biology, and Biomedical Informatics by stimulating interactions among researchers, educators and practitioners from related multi-disciplinary fields. The third ACM Conference on Bioinformatics and Computational Biology will be held in Orlando, Florida in October 2012. As a flagship conference of ACM SIG Bioinformatics, it provides a premier forum for interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary research encompassing disciplines of computer science, mathematics, statistics, biology, bioinformatics, and biomedicine. This award provides travel support for 20 graduate students to attend the conference. This will allow the students to participate in the conference, workshop and tutorials. Additionally special activities such as a doctoral consortium and student poster session will be specifically targeted for them. Participation in premier research conferences in bioinformatics and computational biology is an integral component of doctoral research-based training. It will allow them to interact and network with and potentially collaborate with leading researchers in the discipline. In addition, it will provide them access to potential career opportunities for full time employment after graduation in industry, academia and government.

ACM生物信息学，计算生物学和生物医学信息学特殊兴趣小组（SigbioInformatics； http://www.sigbioinformatics.org/）已于2010年成立，目的是旨在专注于理论和储存，存储，分析，分析，挖掘和生物知识的理论和实践。 ACM Sigbiodormatics的使命是支持生物信息学，计算生物学和生物医学信息学的高级研究，培训和外展，通过刺激来自相关多学科领域的研究人员，教育工作者和从业者之间的互动。 第三届ACM生物信息学和计算生物学会议将于2012年10月在佛罗里达州的奥兰多举行。作为ACM SIG SIG生物信息学的旗舰会议，它为跨学科和多学科研究提供了一个主要论坛，包括计算机科学，数学，生物学，生物学，生物学，生物学，生物学，生物学，以及生物学，生物学，以及生物学，生物学，以及生物学，以及生物学，以及生物学，以及生物学，以及生物学，以及生物学，和生物学。该奖项为20名研究生参加会议提供了旅行支持。这将使学生能够参加会议，研讨会和教程。此外，将专门针对他们的特殊活动，例如博士联盟和学生海报会议。 参加生物信息学和计算生物学的主要研究会议是基于博士研究的培训的组成部分。它将使他们能够与该学科的领先研究人员进行互动和建立联系并可能与领先的研究人员进行合作。 此外，它将为他们提供在行业，学术界和政府毕业后获得全职工作的潜在职业机会。
