******************************************************************
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 (Springer, LNBI).
Moreover, we are planning to publish the best papers in extended form in a
special issue of an international scientific journal.
