Congresso Brasileiro de Bioinformática | Brazilian Bioinformatics Congress
The Brazilian Association of Bioinformatics and Computational Biology (AB3C) hosts the X-Meeting, Brazil's premier bioinformatics-focused scientific conference. The 2026 edition will be held in Garibaldi ('Valley of the Vineyards'), Rio Grande do Sul state, from June 9th to 12th.
This annual congress provides an important opportunity for researchers, scientists, students, and professionals in bioinformatics and related fields to meet, share cutting-edge research, and discuss technological advancements in computational biology. The event has traditionally featured a comprehensive program that includes keynote lectures by national and international experts, scientific paper presentations, poster sessions, workshops, and specialized mini-courses (on-line) pre-event.
The 2026 edition in Garibaldi aims to maintain the conference's tradition of encouraging scientific exchange and innovative research in bioinformatics. By bringing together leading minds in the field, X-Meeting is instrumental in advancing computational approaches to biological research in Brazil and elsewhere.
Researchers and professionals can expect a vibrant academic environment that promotes knowledge sharing, networking, and collaboration across multiple bioinformatics domains, including genomics and proteomics, data analysis, and computational modeling.
