Bioconductor Conference 2026

The Bioconductor Conference 2026 (BioC 2026) is the annual meeting of the Bioconductor open-source project, which provides a comprehensive ecosystem of R packages for the analysis and comprehension of high-throughput genomic data. The conference combines scientific presentations of cutting-edge genomics research with practical workshops on using and contributing to the Bioconductor software infrastructure.

Computational biologists, bioinformaticians, statisticians, and genomics researchers at all career stages attend BioC 2026 to learn about new tools for RNA-seq analysis, single-cell genomics, epigenomics, proteomics, and multi-omics integration. The conference is distinctive in its dual emphasis on scientific discovery and open-source software quality—attendees are expected to contribute to, critique, and improve the shared computational resources that underpin much of modern genomics. It is an essential gathering for anyone whose research depends on reproducible, community-validated bioinformatics workflows.
