**SCOPE**
The RECOMB-CG satellite conference brings together leading researchers
in the mathematical, computational and life sciences to discuss cutting
edge research in comparative genomics, with an emphasis on computational
approaches and novel experimental results. The program includes both
invited speakers, contributed talks and poster sessions.
Contributions on any theoretical and/or empirical approach to
genome-wide comparison are welcome. Topics of interest include genome
evolution, population genomics, genome rearrangements, genomic
variation, diversity and dynamics, phylogenomics, comparative tools for
genome assembly, comparison of functional networks, gene identification
or annotation, cancer evolutionary genomics, comparative epigenomics,
paleogenomics, epidemiology and related areas.
