The Japanese Society for Bioinformatics (JSBi) is a professional society that supports the development and exchange of bioinformatics research and expertise in Japan. It connects researchers and practitioners through regional groups, annual meetings, international conferences, seminars, and other events, including the International Conference on Genome Informatics. The society also recognizes achievement through awards such as the Japanese Bioinformatics Award, the Goto Osamu Award, and the Oxford Journals–JSBi Prize.

JSBi provides educational and career resources for the bioinformatics community. These include a bioinformatics technician certification examination, information on its curriculum and exam preparation, and a laboratory directory. The society shares research news, job and funding opportunities, event announcements, and updates on publications and awards. Its publishing activities include a newsletter and JSBi Bioinformatics Review, alongside materials associated with genome informatics conferences. JSBi also offers guidance on bioinformatics and makes society documents, activity records, and policy statements available. Through these programs and resources, it fosters professional development, research communication, and collaboration across the field.
