Conference on Combinatorial Pattern Matching
Written on 01.06.2021 09:47 by Sven Rahmann
Dear all,
this may be relevant to you if you are really interested in sequence analysis and maybe consider writing a Master's thesis in the topic, or doing some research later. As you may know, each (even very special) field has its own research meetings. For string algorithms / pattern matching, several formats exist, and one is the CPM conference (Combinatorial Pattern Matching). It is quite theoretical.
This year, because of the pandemic, it is online (although you could attend in person), and registration is free.
I invite you to look at the program and decide whether you want to listen to some of the talks. This lecture should have given you a good foundation to understand some of the current research topics in the field. Note that most of this is not directly relevant to bioinformatics, but on a more theoretical level.
Here is the information:

=== CPM 2021 Call for PARTICIPATION ===
=======================================
32nd Annual Symposium on Combinatorial Pattern Matching
Wrocław, Poland, July 5-7, 2021
https://cpm2021.ii.uni.wroc.pl/
Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, the conference will be run in a hybrid
mode: online over Zoom and offline in Wrocław. In both cases, there
are NO participation fees, but you need to register here:
https://cpm2021.ii.uni.wroc.pl/registration.shtml
(registration also allows you to participate in the summer school on July 4).
At the moment, citizens/residents of EU/EFTA countries and UK/Ireland
can freely enter Poland, and citizens/residents of Japan, Canada,
South Korea, Australia are allowed to enter by air. You do not need to
quarantine when you show proof of vaccination or negative test
(antigen or RT-PCR, you can take it before arrival or after arrival).
The exact rules are complicated and keep changing, so we strongly
advise verifying them on your own.
Due to not having any participation fees and local regulations, the
social program will be minimal, with lunches on your own. However,
there will be coffee and a walking tour of the center.
We will be happy to answer any questions concerning the local
arrangements at cpm2021@cs.uni.wroc.pl.
