Midwest Bioinformatics Showcase Seminar Series

The Midwest Bioinformatics Showcase Seminars highlight graduate students and postdoctoral researchers using high-performance computing (HPC) resources for genomics research.

By providing a platform for students and postdocs to present their work to a community of peers and colleagues both from their home universities and across the Midwest, this weekly series fosters cross-institutional dialogue, provides professional development opportunities, and showcases cutting-edge genomics work enabled by HPC.

The Spring 2026 series is a collaborative effort between Purdue University and Northwestern University, and students and postdoctoral researchers from those universities are invited to submit an abstract to be considered as seminar speakers.

But you don’t have to be affiliated with Purdue or Northwestern to attend!
