In its unique approach through open-ended data analysis contests, CAMDA in 2021 again highlighted key challenges in analysing massive data in the life sciences. Since its inaugural meeting at Duke University in 2000, CAMDA has become a major fixture and runs yearly. Celebrating its 20th conference meeting at ISMB 2021, it has become the longest series of international data analysis competitions, featuring more challenges over time than even the well-known biannual CASP. This Research Topic collects selected highlights from the conference as original research papers.
