Call for papers:
EVENTH INTERNATIONAL MEETING ON COMPUTATIONAL
INTELLIGENCE METHODS FOR BIOINFORMATICS AND BIOSTATISTICS
Palermo, ITALY - 16-18 September 2010
http://cibb10.pa.icar.cnr.it
******************************************************************************
The main goal of the CIBB meetings is to provide a forum open to
researchers from different disciplines to present and discuss problems
concerning computational techniques in bioinformatics, systems biology and
medical informatics with a particular focus on Neural Networks, Machine
Learning, Fuzzy Logic, and Evolutionary Computation methods.
CIBB 2010 is jointly organized by:
. INNS International Neural Network Society SIG Bioinformatics
. INNS International Neural Network Society SIG Biopattern
. BBCT IEEE-CIS - Task force on Neural Networks
Technical areas addressed by CIBB 2010 include, but are not limited to:
Sequence analysis, promoter analysis and identification of transcription
factor binding sites;
Gene expression data analysis; Methods for the integration of clinical
and genetic data;
Algorithms for alternative splicing analysis; Methods for the functional
classification of genes;
Methods for the unsupervised analysis, validation and
visualization of structures discovered in bio-molecular data;
Prediction of secondary and tertiary protein structures;
Mass spectrometry data analysis in proteomics;
Methods for comparative genomics;
Algorithms for molecular evolution and phylogenetic analysis;
Mathematical modelling and simulation of biological systems;
Heterogeneous data integration and data fusion for diagnostics;
Bio-molecular databases and data mining;
Algorithms for pharmacogenetics;
Bio-medical text mining and imaging;
Methods for diagnosis and prognosis;
Software tools for bioinformatics
The scientific program will include, besides some plenary talks,
contributed papers that will be presented in plenary oral or poster sessions.
Accepted papers will be published in the compact disk of conference
proceedings. A selection of papers presented at CIBB 2010 will
be published a in post conference volume printed by an international
publisher. Moreover, we are planning to publish the best papers in extended
form in a special issue of an international scientific journal.
Important Dates:
Tutorial Proposals: 30 April 2010
Paper submission deadline: 20 May 2010
Notification of acceptance: 20 June 2010
Final paper due: 14 July 2010
Conference: 16-18 September 2010
