ABACBS Annual Conference 2026 | Melbourne

Call for Abstracts

We invite abstract submissions from students, researchers, academics, and industry professionals working across all areas of bioinformatics and computational biology.

Presenter Requirements

The presenting author is required to attend the conference physically and present their work. Presenting authors must be registered participants. In case, the presenting author does not register, the abstract may be automatically withdrawn.

Abstracts may be considered for either an oral talk (15 mins + 5 mins Q&A) or a poster presentation. You may indicate a preference at the time of submission, or select both to increase your chances of being accepted.

Best poster abstracts may be selected for 3-minute lightning talks during the main program.
