About Bioinformatics Open Source Conference (BOSC)

The Bioinformatics Open Source Conference (BOSC), which has taken place annually since 2000, is usually held as part of the annual ISMB conference. It covers the wide range of open source bioinformatics software being developed, and encompasses the growing movement of Open Science, with its focus on transparency, reproducibility, and data provenance. Two full days of talks, posters, panel discussions, and informal discussion groups enable BOSC attendees to interact with other developers and share ideas and code, as well as learning about some of the latest developments in the field of open source bioinformatics. BOSC is sponsored by the Open Bioinformatics Foundation (OBF), a non-profit, volunteer-run group dedicated to promoting the practice and philosophy of Open Source software development and Open Science within the biological research community. This collection hosts posters and slides that were presented at the conference.

This collection is part of the Bioinformatics Gateway.
