The '''Bioinformatics Open Source Conference''' ('''BOSC''') is an [[academic conference]] on [[Open source|open-source]] programming and other [[open science]] practices in [[bioinformatics]], organised by the [[Open Bioinformatics Foundation]]. The conference has been held annually since 2000 and is run as a two-day meeting either within [[Intelligent Systems for Molecular Biology]] (ISMB) conference or as a joint conference with the [[Galaxy_(computational_biology)|Galaxy]] community.
 
== Program ==
The conference is held as a single track consisting of presentations, [[poster session]]s and two [[keynote|keynote talks]] by people of influence in open-source bioinformatics.<ref name=bosc-2013-report>{{cite journal|last1=Harris|first1=N.

Since 2010, an informal two-day "CollaborationFest" (formerly [[Codefest]]) has been held directly preceding the conference.<ref name=codefest>{{cite web|title=Codefest - Open Bioinformatics Foundation|url=http://www.open-bio.org/wiki/Codefest|website=www.open-bio.org|accessdate=July 20, 2014}}</ref><ref>{{cite journal|last1=Möller|first1=Steffen|last2=Afgan|first2=Enis|last3=Banck|first3=Michael|last4=Cock|first4=Peter J.
