Metabolomics 2018 is the first annual conference to have a Bioinformatics Hub. This will be a place where informaticians and users can gather with the aim to provide advice, knowledge and support; to discuss current issues and challenges in computational mass spectrometry with the community and to work on interesting, synergistic projects and to freely exchange tools, algorithms and know-how with each other, across all labs, seniorities and levels of experience.

The Hub will be available with experts during the following times:

• Tuesday 12:00 p.m. - 1:20 p.m. – Sky Bridge, near the registration desk
• Wednesday 5:15 p.m. - 6:45 p.m. – Exhibit Hall, during the poster session
• Thursday 12:00 p.m. - 1:20 p.m. – Sky Bridge, near the registration desk

We also encourage you to use the Hub as meeting point if you want to meet someone and talk bioinformatics outside the scheduled time slots. Flip charts will be provided. If you’re using twitter, check #metabolomics2018 and #BioInformaticsHub.
