SMPGD is an annual meeting dedicated to statistical methods for post genomic data analysis. The aim of the workshop is to present work from mathematical to applied statistics, but also new areas in high throughput biology that could need new statistical developments. (For more information about the SMPGD conferences, see the official website.)

The workshop is usually organized around 3 to 4 invited speakers, and 3 to 4 invited sessions, and one session of contributed abstracts (oral presentations and posters). As SMPGD is especially interested in the statistical, mathematical, algorithmics or modelling questions raised by modern biology, presentations are expected to focus on these points.

This year we are excited to focus on the three main themes:

20 years of Statistical Methods for Post Genomic Data! 

• Francis Bach (Laboratoire d'Informatique de l'École Normale Superiéure, CNRS/ENS/INRIA, Paris, FR), Mixing statistics with optimization: from stochastic gradient decent to double descent
• Stéphane Robin (Laboratoire de Probabilités, Statistique et Modélisation, Sorbonne Université, Paris, FR) A partial history of latent variable models in genomics
• Céline Scornavacca (Institut des Sciences de l’Evolution, Montpellier, FR) 20 years of methodological developements in phylogeny: phylogenetics, phylogenomics, phylodynamics, and much more!
• Céline Vallot (Institut Curie, Paris, FR), 10 years of single-cell research, applications in cancer epigenomics

RNA structure and function

• Camille Marchet (BONSAI, CNRS, Lille, FR) Reference-free transcriptomics and other large indexes
  
• Nikolay Shirokikh (John Curtin School of Medical Research, Canberra, AU) Comprehensive translational profiling and STE AI to measure absolute protein biosynthesis rates and rapid changes in mRNA usage
• Emiliano Ricci (ENS Lyon, FR) Epitranscriptomics : a dynamic landscape of RNA modification marks to orchestrate cell function
• Virginie Marcel (Cancer Research Center of Lyon, FR) Alteration of ribosomal RNA 2’O-ribose methylation in cancer: a novel epitranscriptomic mark involved in translational regulation

SMPGD Steering committee
