The French bioinformatics community. In France, several groups exist to support the bioinformatics community. These groups interact with the SFBI and have missions complementary to those of the SFBI. Through Cossaf, the SFBI can communicate specific requests or needs from the community to the research ministries. Altogether, they animate the community by organizing JOBIM (the annual bioinformatics conference), by launching working groups on specific topics, by providing several resources such as catalogs of training/jobs as well as the list of bioinformatics laboratories or teams, by offering fellowships and special awards for young bioinformaticians, and by supporting other bioinformatics events such as the special session “Bioinformatics in France” of the ISMB/ECCB 2023.
