CIBB 2011 - Call for Papers

CIBB 2011 - INTELLIGENCE METHODS FOR BIOINFORMATICS AND BIOSTATISTICS

CALL FOR PAPERS
 

Gargnano del Garda, 30 June - 2 July 2011

http://www.neuronelab.dmi.unisa.it/CIBB2011

 

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, medical

informatics and biostatistics with a particular focus on Neural Networks,

Computational Learning, Fuzzy Logic, and Evolutionary Computation, methods

and their relationships with Statistical Pattern Recognition, Non-Parametric

Inference and Computational Statistics.

 

CIBB 2011 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; Modeling and evaluation 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 and poster sessions. Accepted

papers will be published in the compact disk of conference proceedings. A

selection of papers presented at CIBB 2011 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.
