Intelligent Systems for Molecular Biology (ISMB) is a scientific meeting on the subjects of bioinformatics and computational biology organized by the International Society for Computational Biology (ISCB). Its principal focus is on the development and application of advanced computational methods for biological problems. It has been held annually since 1993 and has grown to the largest and most prestigious meetings in these fields. In recent years, the conference has been attended by between 1,500 and 2,000 delegates. ISMB has been rotating locations mainly between North America and Europe each year. When the meeting is in Europe it has been held jointly with the European Conference on Computational Biology (ECCB). The proceedings of the conference have been published by the journal Bioinformatics.

Famous quotes containing the words intelligent, systems and/or biology:
“A defective voice will always preclude an artist from achieving the complete development of his art, however intelligent he may be.... The voice is an instrument which the artist must learn to use with suppleness and sureness, as if it were a limb.”
—Sarah Bernhardt (1845–1923)
“The only people who treasure systems are those whom the whole truth evades, who want to catch it by the tail. A system is just like truth’s tail, but the truth is like a lizard. It will leave the tail in your hand and escape; it knows that it will soon grow another tail.”
—Ivan Sergeevich Turgenev (1818–1883)
“Nothing can be more incorrect than the assumption one sometimes meets with, that physics has one method, chemistry another, and biology a third.”
—Thomas Henry Huxley (1825–95)
