Great moments at BITS 2024 conference in Trento
Our group has attended the 20th Annual Meeting of the Bioinformatics Italian Society (BITS 2024) in Trento. It was an incredibly successful event!
We are proud to have contributed to the event with 2 oral presentations from Gaia and Piero:
- “Limitations of the co-occurrence-based approach in the inference of microbiota interaction networks” Piero Mariotto, Matteo Baldan, Barbara Di Camillo, Giacomo Baruzzo
- “Interactive exploration of cell-cell communication results from single-cell RNA sequencing data through a webapp” Gaia Tussardi, Giulia Cesaro, Barbara Di Camillo, Giacomo Baruzzo
Also, Gaia co-chaired the “YOUNG BITS, RSG-Italy & CINI Young-InfoLife” Symposium, a supporting and stimulating forum for undergraduate, master, PhD students and early stage researchers to present their research and to connect with the wider Italian Bioinformatics Community.
In two weeks we will attend the 19th Annual Meeting of the Bioinformatics Italian Society (BITS 2023) with 1 oral communication & 3 poster contributions
- Oral communication: “CClens: effective and efficient differential cellular communication analysis of large-scale single-cell RNA sequencing data” (G. Cesaro, G. Baruzzo, B. Di Camillo)
- Poster contribution: “Data-driven meta-simulation of realistic tumoral samples” (F. Longhin, E. Hazizaj, G. Baruzzo, B. Di Camillo)
- Poster contribution: “mopo16Sweb: a cloud-based app for multi-objective optimization of bacterial 16S PCR primers” (M. Milia, N. Ferro, B. Di Camillo, G. Baruzzo)
- Poster contribution: “From microbial ground truth network simulation to inference method benchmark” (M. Baldan, A. Rossato, M. Bellato, G. Baruzzo, B. Di Camillo)
