NOTE - This email was sent to all authors of the submission – not just the presenting author. Please ensure that the presenting author is also marked as a corresponding author in EasyChair.

Congratulations! Your submission has been accepted for a talk at ISMB 2024 as part of the BOSC Track. Detailed talk schedules will be available early June and will be posted on the conference programme pages at https://www.iscb.org/ismb2024/programme-schedule/scientific-programme/bosc and the BOSC website at https://www.open-bio.org/events/bosc-2024/bosc-2024-schedule/.
You have been given a talk slot of 20 minutes. You should prepare a 15-minute talk, with 5 minutes allocated for Q&A.

URGENT AND TIME SENSITIVE TASKS:

• All talks are expected to be presented in-person, with limited exceptions. We understand that some presenters will have valid reasons to avoid in-person attendance. ISCB will grant remote presentation options for reasons associated with maternity/paternity leave, care for a family member, personal/medical disability, sickness, financial hardship, or potential visa problems. If your research is accepted for oral presentation and you are unable to present in person, ISCB requires notification at the time of acceptance and no later than May 15, 2024. You will be asked during your confirmation of participation to confirm your in-person participation. If unable to participate you will need to request a waiver by writing presentationwaiver@iscb.org.
• Presenters of talks will receive a Confirmation of Participation (CoP) link that must be completed no later than June 14, 2024. This will be emailed directly to you from no-reply@iscb.org with the subject "ISMB 2024 Confirmation of Participation".
• Please remember the presenting author must register to attend the conference no later than June 14, 2024. Your registration ID is required to link your CoP with your talk or poster. Registration link: https://www.iscb.org/ismb2024/register.
  ISCB is pleased to offer a limited number of fellowships to support registration and/or travel. Any ISCB member in good standing with an accepted talk or poster is eligible to apply, with priority going to members from low or middle-income countries as well as students and postdoctoral fellows to attend ISMB 2024. Travel Fellowship Application Invitations are sent directly to eligible individuals after acceptance of a scientific submission to Proceedings, Abstracts, or Posters.
• For those presenting in-person, you are strongly encouraged to upload a pre-recorded talk. This enables us to make the talk available shortly after the live presentation along with the session recordings to provide faster and more seamless access to the conference content for virtual participants. For virtual presenters, a pre-recorded version of your talk is REQUIRED as a back-up precaution, should anything prevent you from being able to present live. We would rather play your recorded talk than have 'dead time' within the programme. Pre-recorded talks for the ISCB Nucleus platform library may be uploaded between June 18 and no later than 5pm EDT on July 2. The pre-recorded talk will be made available shortly after the live presentation to provide faster and more seamless on-demand access to the conference content. Details on recording requirements and deadlines will be sent in a separate email in early June.
• Presenters should read all details and expectations provided at https://www.iscb.org/iscb-policy-statements/presenter-information
• If you have questions about your presentation, please contact the COSI/Track chairs directly at <bosc@open-bio.org>
• For information about conference logistics, including FAQs and accommodations, please visit the ISMB 2024 website: https://www.iscb.org/ismb2024/home

New ISMB rule this year: a presenting author may not present the same work as both a talk and a poster. If you want this work to be presented in both formats, you will have to do a separate (late) poster submission with a different presenting author. The late poster submission deadline is May 20.

Thank you again for submitting your work to ISMB 2024! We look forward to your talk!

Sincerely,
The BOSC 2024 Program Committee
