International Conference on Bioinformatics (InCoB) is a scientific conference on bioinformatics aimed at scientists in the Asia Pacific region. It has been held annually since 2002. Originally organised by coordination between the Asia Pacific Bioinformatics Network (http://www.apbionet.org) and the BIOTEC of Thailand (http://www.biotec.or.th) in 2002, the meeting has since been the flagship conference of the APBioNet, where APBioNet's Annual General Meeting is held.

Scientific Publications Since 2006, InCoB has been partnering with BMC Bioinformatics (http://www.biomedcentral.com/bmcbioinformatics/) to publish a InCoB Special Conference Issue of top papers presented at the conference. In 2007, an additional tie-up with the Bioinformation journal (http://www.bioinformation.net) was established in addition to the BMC Bioinformatics issue.

Technological Placeshifting Since 2007, InCoB held in Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, has been placeshifted in an additional location in a developing country venue, namely the VNU, VietNam through the advanced videoconferencing project of APAN (http://www.apan.net) and TEIN2 (http://www.tein2.net).
