The CBW is working to reduce its environmental footprint. You can help us by opting to access online versions of workshop lecture notes and tutorials instead of receiving a binder of printed materials. At the workshop, do you want a binder of printed lecture notes (in addition to online access to PDF versions)?*

Yes

Select YES if you want a binder containing the lectures in print along with online access to PDF versions. Select NO if you want only online access to PDF versions of lectures.

Code of Conduct

Canadian Bioinformatics Workshops is dedicated to providing a harassment-free learning experience for everyone, regardless of gender, sexual orientation, disability, physical appearance, body size, race, nationality, religion, or choice of text editor. We do not tolerate harassment of participants in any form. Harassment includes offensive verbal comments related to gender, sexual orientation, disability, physical appearance, body size, race, religion, sexual images in public spaces, deliberate intimidation, stalking, following, harassing photography or recording, sustained disruption of talks or other events, inappropriate physical contact, and unwelcome sexual attention. All communication should be appropriate for a professional audience including people of many different backgrounds. Sexual language and imagery is not appropriate for any event. Be kind to others. Do not insult or put down other attendees. Behave professionally. Remember that harassment and sexist, racist, or exclusionary jokes are not appropriate. Participants asked to stop any harassing behavior are expected to comply immediately. Attendees violating these rules may be asked to leave the event at the sole discretion of the conference organizers without a refund of any charge that may have been levied. Thank you for helping make this a welcoming, friendly event for all. This code of conduct is a modified version of that used by Software Carpentry, which uses a modified version of the code used by PyCon, which in turn is forked from a template written by the Ada Initiative and hosted on the Geek Feminism Wiki.
