Welcome Dear RECOMB 2011 attendee, On behalf of the RECOMB 2011 organizing committee, it is a pleasure to welcome you in Vancouver, to the premier meeting in theoretical foundations of computational biology, the 15th Annual International Symposium on Computational Molecular Biology, along with two RECOMB Satellite Meetings on Massively Parallel Sequencing and Computational Cancer Biology. This year we will have 43 papers presented in RECOMB selected out of more than 150 submissions. RECOMB will also feature 6 distinguished keynote speakers as well as 5 highlight presentations, selected among more than 58 submissions, and an industry panel on the future of high throughput sequencing that will contribute to the high quality of the program. With more than 120 posters in the main conference, together with several oral presentations, invited speakers and an additional poster session in the satellite meetings, we are expecting an exciting and lively conference. We hope that the high quality of the technical program coupled with the attractions of beautiful Vancouver will help make this RECOMB a memorable meeting. RECOMB 2011 benefited from the voluntary contributions of many members of the computational biology and bioinformatics community in Vancouver and Simon Fraser University, the host institution. Special thanks to Vineet Bafna, the Program Committee Chair, Martin Vingron, the Steering Committee Chair, Cedric Chauve, the Organizing Committee and Finances Chair, Inanc Birol, Industry Relations and Panels Chair and Martin Ester, the Sponsorship Chair. We also thank all members of the Program, Steering and the Organization Committees, as well as our event coordinators. The conference would not be financially viable without our Canadian and International sponsors, namely, Genome BC, Canadian Institutes of Health Research, Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada, Simon Fraser University, the Pacific Institute for the Mathematical Sciences, International Society for Computational Biology, Mathematics of Information Technology and Computer Science Inc., Ion Torrent, BC Cancer Foundation and Pacific Biosciences. We wish you all a great meeting, Sincerely, S. Cenk Sahinalp Conference Chair

He is an editor of Genome Research and has served on various scientific advisory boards for both NIH and NSF. His research group provided the first genome-wide view of segmental duplications within human and other primate genomes and he is a leader in an effort to identify and sequence normal and disease-causing structural variation in the human genome. The long-term goal of his research is to understand the evolution and mechanisms of recent gene duplication and its relationship to copy-number variation and human disease.

Marra received his PhD from Simon Fraser University, and postdoctoral training at the Washington University Genome Sequence Center. When Nobel Laureate Michael Smith set out in 1998 to establish the Genome Science Centre (GSC) in Vancouver, Dr. Marra was appointed to head the Mapping and Sequencing division. He later became GSC director, leading more than 200 staff and an annual grant funding level averaging more than $20 million per year. During his tenure at GSC Dr. Marra and his team succeeded to map the human genome, and sequence the SARS virus, putting Canada on the world map in the genome era. Dr. Marra has received numerous honours recognizing his scientific contributions and leadership including the Order of British Columbia, the Royal Society of Canada Fellowship and the 2010 Genome BC Award of Scientific Excellence.
