ApBSCS-2025
1st ApBioNet Student Council Symposium
The Asia-Pacific Bioinformatics Student Council Symposium (APBSCS-2025) is a student-led initiative held in conjunction with the APBioNet INCOB Conference. This vibrant, in-person event is dedicated to students and early-career researchers in bioinformatics and computational biology.
This inaugural event, held alongside the APBioNet-INCOB Conference, is more than just a meeting—it’s a bold step toward empowering early-career scientists, building regional connections, and spotlighting student-led innovation in bioinformatics and computational biology.
Built on the belief that students grow best when they learn from one another and from mentors who understand their journey, APBSCS offers a platform where ideas are exchanged, stories are shared, and collaborations are born.
Attendees will benefit from:
- 🔬 Student research flash talks
- 🧠 Panel discussions on career challenges and growth
- 🤝 Networking opportunities with peers and professionals
- 🎡 Fun and engaging social sessions like quizzes
Whether you’re presenting, networking, or just listening, this symposium is for you.
