This Special Issue of BMC Bioinformatics “Systems Biology and Bioinformatics” collates the papers presented at the 11th Young Scientists School “Systems Biology and Bioinformatics”-2019 (SBB-2019) hold in summer 2019 in Novosibirsk, Russia (http:// conf.bionet.nsc.ru/sbb2019/en/). The issue contains material on classical sequence analysis, bioinformatics applications in medicine, and the theoretical research on gene network structure and dynamics. This traditional school on bioinformatics is organized annually since 2008 by the Institute of Cytology and Genetics of the Siberian Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences and Novosibirsk State University. In 2019 we had several large international meetings in Russia - in Novosibirsk and Moscow presenting materials on genetics and bioinformatics. The name of the special issue - SBB-2019 reflects the main topics of the event. Traditionally we select the best conference and school materials to be presented at BMC Genomics (https://bmcgenomics.biomedcentral.com/articles/supplements/volume-21-supplement-7) and BMC Genetics postconference publications [1–4], see also (https://bmcbioinformatics.biomedcentral.com/ articles/supplements/volume-20-supplement-1). The SBB Schools in Novosibirsk are satellite events for BGRS\SB multiconference organized biannually. In 2019, the SBB-2019 School was held as a broad-scope independent meeting with science and education components. Other Special Issues in the fields of genomics, bioinformatics, microbiology, and medical genomics accompany this Special Issue in bioinformatics, published as a part of the following series: BMC Genomics and BMC Medical Genomics, BMC Genetics and BMC Medical Genetics, as well as in BMC Microbiology. In 2018, the conference highlights were organized into the Special Issues with reports from the BGRS\SB-2018 conference and earlier from Belyaev Readings-2017 (http://conf.bionet.nsc.ru/belyaev100/en) [5, 6]. We continued the BMC Bioinformatics special issues in 2019 [7, 8]. At the time of this paper writing, the BGRS\SB-2020 event passed in Novosibirsk (https://bgrssb.icgbio.ru/2020/). For the first time, it was in an online format. We believe such events and public discussion at the platforms of international publishers bring attention of the readers [8, 9] (https:// www.frontiersin.org/research-topics/14266/bioinformatics-of-genome-regulation; https://peerj.com/collections/72-bgrs-sb-2020/). © The Author(s). 2020 Open Access This article is licens
