New paper alert! GateKeeper-GPU is now published at IEEE Transactions on Computers, by Zülal Bingöl, Mohammed Alser, Onur Mutlu , Özcan Öztürk and Can Alkan. Early access: ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/10436…, arXiv version: arxiv.org/abs/2103.14978

We presented the BioPIM Project at the CGSI-The Computational Genomics Summer Institute 2024.

We are at the CGSI-The Computational Genomics Summer Institute. Can presented BioPIM Project, and Klea presented her project. We also met the leaders in bioinformatics, and one of our alumni, Mohammed Alser.

We are glad to attend the CGSI-The Computational Genomics Summer Institute in Los Angeles. In the first two weeks Klea and Ricardo presented their work. One more week to go, but we are already looking forward to joining CGSI 2025!

The Genome Informatics 2024 Meeting will be hosted on the Wellcome Genome Campus Wellcome Connecting Science Learning and Training in Hinxton, UK, November 13-15, 2024. Can Alkan will give an invited talk to feature hardware acceleration of bioinformatics workloads and the BioPIM Project.

We held our third plenary meeting for the BioPIM Project in beautiful Zurich, marking the close of our second review period. Since our last meeting in May, we have published three additional papers, with several more submitted and available as preprints.

We are at the Genome Informatics 2024 meeting with two talks and a poster. Can Alkan Zülal Bingöl @camiladuitama1 Rayan Chikhi in attendance.

And the Best Poster Award goes to Zülal Bingöl!! #genomeinformatics24
