Final Call For Papers

5th IEEE International 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 sciences,
   resulting in the c= ollection of unprecedented amounts of biological
   and medical data. Using th= is data to advance our knowledge about
   fundamental biological processes and= improve human health requires
   novel computational models and advanced anal= ysis algorithms. IEEE
   ICCABS aims to bring together leading academic and in= dustry
   researchers to discuss the latest advances in computational methods    for bio and medical sciences.
   Topics of interest include but are not limited to:
     * Biological modeling and simulation (Molecular and cellular
       modeling, s= tochastic and rule-based modeling, modeling languages
       and systems);
     * Biomedical image processing (Image segmentation and
       classification, vi= sualization, functional and molecular
       imaging);
     * Biomedical data and literature mining (Data integration, knowledge
       dis= covery from electronic medical records and scientific
       literature);

     * Computational genetic epidemiology (Linkage and association
       analysis, = gene-gene and gene-environment interaction modeling,
       genetic risk analysis)= ;

     * Computational metabolomics (Metabolomics databases, metabolite
       identif= ication, spectral analysis, metabolic network modeling);
     * Computational proteomics (Peptide identification and
       quantification, p= ost-translational modifications,
       protein-protein interactions );

     * Databases and ontologies (Biomedical data warehouses, database
       integra= tion, biomedical ontologies and semantic web services);
     * Gene regulation (Regulatory motifs and modules,
       post-transcriptional r= egulation, regulatory networks);

     * Genome analysis (Genome assembly, genome annotation, comparative
       genom= ics, metagenomics);

     * Health Informatics (Medical data management and privacy, medical
       recom= mender systems, therapy optimization);
     * High-performance bio-computing (Cloud and grid computing, advanced
       mul= ti-core, GPU, and FPGA biomedical applications);
     * Immunoinformatics (Epitope prediction, vaccine design, immune
       system s= imulators);
     * Molecular evolution (Models of evolution, reconstruction of
       phylogenet= ic trees and networks, comparative genomics);

     * Population genomics (Haplotype and recombination analysis,
       structural = genomic variation, signatures of natural selection);
     * Sequence analysis (Multiple sequence alignment, motif discovery,
       seque= nce search and clustering);
     * Structural bioinformatics (RNA and protein structure prediction
       and cl= assification, molecular docking, RNA and protein design);
     * Systems biology (Systems approaches to molecular biology,
       multi-scale = modeling, biological networks, synthetic biology);

     * Transcriptomics (Microarray and sequencing-based transcriptome
       profili= ng, novel transcript discovery, alternative splicing,
       non-coding RNA analys= is).
