Carnegie Mellon Ranked First in publications in highly-selective Computational Biology conferences

Based on analysis by , Carnegie Mellon is the front-runner in computational biology. The rankings are based upon accepted proceedings papers at the top computational biology conferences, ISMB and RECOMB. These conferences typically accept only around 15% of submitted papers and the number of accepted papers over many years is a strong indication of Carnegie Mellon’s leadership in framing novel biomedical research questions in computational terms and developing rigorous and scalable solutions.
Carnegie Mellon was also ranked first across , consistent with many other ranking metrics.
