QfO-9
January 7, 2026
We are organising the 9th edition of the Quest for Orthologs meeting on August 29–30, 2026 (right before ECCB), in Lausanne, Switzerland.
Computational Genomics Research Lab
The lab is located at the Data Science and AI division, Department of Computer Science and Engineering, University of Gothenburg and Chalmers University of Technology, Sweden.
Our Research: Our lab conduct research at the cutting edge of computational biology and bioinformatics. We aim to understand human genome variation and evolution across different genomic regions by developing interpretable and efficient methods in comparative pan-genomics, leveraging machine learning methods and statistical analysis [More].
