CALL FOR PAPERS

                             20

   5th IEEE Internati= onal Conference on Computational
   Advances in Bio and Medical Sciences= (ICCABS)
   October 15-17, Miami, FL, USA

   Advances in high-throughput technologies such as= DNA sequencing and
   mass spectrometry are profoundly transforming life scie= nces,
   resulting in the collection of unprecedented amounts of biological an   d medical data. Using this data to advance our knowledge about
   fundamental= biological processes and improve human health requires
   novel computational= models and advanced analysis algorithms. IEEE
   ICCABS aims to bring togeth= er leading academic and industry
   researchers to discuss the latest advances= in computational methods
   for bio and medical sciences.

   Topics of interest include but are not limit= ed to:
     * Biological modeling and simulat= ion (Molecular and cellular
       modeling, stochastic and rule-based mo= deling, modeling languages
       and systems);
     * Biomedical image processing (Image segmentation and
       classification, visualization, functional and= molecular imaging);
     * Biomedical data and literature = mining (Data integration,
       knowledge discovery from electronic medi= cal records and
       scientific literature);
     * Computational genetic epidemiol= ogy (Linkage and association
       analysis, gene-gene and gene-environm= ent interaction modeling,
       genetic risk analysis);
     * Computational metabolomics (Metabolomics databases, metabolite
       identification, spectral analysis,= metabolic network modeling);
     * Computational proteomics (Peptide identification and
       quantification, post-translational modificat= ions,
       protein-protein interactions );
     * Databases and ontologies (Biomedical data warehouses, database
       integration, biomedical ontologies= and semantic web services);
     * Gene regulation (Regul= atory motifs and modules,
       post-transcriptional regulation, regulatory netwo= rks);
     * Genome analysis (Genom= e assembly, genome annotation, comparative
       genomics, metagenomics);
     * Health Informatics (Me= dical data management and privacy, medical
       recommender systems, therapy opt= imization);
     * High-performance bio-computing<= /strong> (Cloud and grid
       computing, advanced multi-core, GPU, and FPGA biom= edical
       applications);
     * Immunoinformatics (Epi= tope prediction, vaccine design, immune
       system simulators);
     * Molecular evolution (M= odels of evolution, reconstruction of
       phylogenetic trees and networks, comp= arative genomics);
     * Population genomics (H= aplotype and recombination analysis,
       structural genomic variation, signatur= es of natural selection);
     * Sequence analysis (Mul= tiple sequence alignment, motif discovery,
       sequence search and clustering);     * Structural bioinformatics (RNA and protein structure prediction
       and classification, molecular doc= king, RNA and protein design);
     * Systems biology (Syste= ms approaches to molecular biology,
       multi-scale modeling, biological networ= ks, synthetic biology);
     * Transcriptomics (Micro= array and sequencing-based transcriptome
       profiling, novel transcript discov= ery, alternative splicing,
       non-coding RNA analysis).
