ISMB BioVis '24

If you’re at ISMB and interested in the latest news and development around biological data visualization, check out the BioVis symposium in room 521 today!

As one of the two invited keynote speakers, I’m super excited to talk about challenges in BioVis software tools and how we can overcome them with software best-practices and new exciting frameworks.

I’ll will discuss these practices and frameworks using examples from my visualization research in genomics and single-cell biology and the broader BioVis community.

Putting everything together, I’ll show a quick prototype of how we can make conventional BioVis software tools “intelligent” through bi-directional interaction between a user, the visualization, and an LLM.
