About RSG-Nigeria

RSG-Nigeria is the ISCB-SC Regional Student Group for Nigeria. It brings together students and early-career researchers interested in the interdisciplinary field of Computational Biology, and provides a platform for networking, sharing ideas and raising awareness about the scope of the field. Our members come from across the country.

We are the Regional Student Group of Nigeria within the ISCB-SC, the International Society for Computational Biology Student Council. This is an international student body with 26 regional student groups in countries around the world. Its purpose is to empower the next generation of computational biology, genomics and bioinformatics students and early-career researchers and facilitate collaborative activities from institutions across the country.

International Society for Computational Biology (ISCB)

Regional Student Groups (RSGs)

The Regional Student Groups was founded in 2006, established and managed by the ISCB-SC. Their goal is to build supra-institutional organizations that bring together students and young researchers within a specific country or region, acting as local connections to global opportunities. There are 26 Regional Student Groups active in countries around the world. Learn more at www.iscbsc.org/rsg.
