From 24 to 26 September 2012 the International Federation for Information Processing (IFIP) is having its World Computer Congress WCC2012 in Amsterdam, the Netherlands (www.wcc-2012.org). During the WCC2010 conference in Brisbane, Australia, IFIP and the International Medical Informatics Association (IMIA) organized a joint conference for the first time in their history. Also this time a joint one-day associated meeting will be held on Thursday 27 September. The topic of this meeting will be the link between bioinformatics and medical informatics. IFIP’s Working Groups 5.13 Bioinformatics and its applications and IMIA’s Working Group on Informatics in Genomic Medicine (IGM) are working in this area and supporting this event.
