The 7th Annual Global Bioinformatics Education Summit (GBES) comes to Mexico City for the first time—May 19-23, 2025, in-person in Mexico City and online via Zoom.
Like its predecessors, the 2025 GBES is a working meeting that gathers bioinformatics educators and other experts to address challenges in bioinformatics education and workforce development. Participants will share successes and challenges, and the outcomes of the summit will set priorities and issue calls to action.
This year the summit will take five days to address multiple initiatives and strategies for improving educational practices and calls to action to academics, policymakers, industry and student organisations, all aimed at supporting competency building in and the adoption of upcoming trends in education, such as AI and other best practices in bioinformatics training.
