About BICoB
The 8th International Conference on Bioinformatics and
Computation= al Biology (BICoB) provides an excellent venue for
researchers and practiti= oners in the fields of bioinformatics to
present and publish their research= results and techniques.
Bioinformatics and computational biology continue = to be a vibrant
research area with broadening applications and new emerging challenges. In recent years, bioinformatics and computational biology
have= experience significant advances driven by computational
techniques in bioi= nformatics. The BICoB conference seeks original
and high quality papers in = the fields of bioinformatics,
computational biology, systems biology, medic= al informatics and the
related areas. Work in the computational methods rel= ated to, or with
application in, bioinformatics is also encouraged includin= g:
bio-data mining, text mining, machine learning, biomathematics,
modeling= and simulation, pattern recognition, data visualization,
biostatistics, .e= tc. The topics of interest include (and are not
limited to):
Genome analysis:Genome assembly, genome annotation, gene fi nding, alternative splicing,
EST analysis a= nd comparative genomics.
Sequence analysis: Multiple sequence alignment, sequence se arch and clustering, function
prediction, mo= tif discovery, functional site re cognition in protein, RNA and DNA sequences.
Phylogenetics: Phylogeny estimation, models of evolution, c omparative biological methods,
population gen= etics.
Structural Bioinformatics: Structure matching, prediction, analysis and comparison; methods
and tools for = docking; protein design
Analysis of high-throughput biological data: Microarrays (n ucleic acid, protein, array CGH,
genome tiling,= and other arrays), EST, SAGE, MP= SS,
proteomics, mass spectrometry.
Genetics and population analysis: Linkage analysis, associa tion analysis, population simulation,
haplotyping, m= arker discovery, genotype calling= .
Systems biology: Systems approaches to molecular biology, m ultiscale modeling, pathways,
; gene networks= .
Computational Proteomics: Filtering and indexing sequence d atabases, Peptide quantification
and identifica= tion, Genome annotations via mass spectrometry, Identification of post-translational
modifications,= Structural genomics via mass spe ctrometry, Protein-protein interactions,
Computational = approaches to analysis of large s= cale
Mass spectrometry data, Exploration and
visualization = of proteomic data, Data models an= d
integration for proteomics and genomics,
Querying and r= etrieval of proteomics and genomi= cs
data etc.
Journal Publication: Authors of selected high quality paper s in BICoB-2016 will be invited to submit extended version of their
papers = for possible publication in bioinformatics journals
(selected high quality papers in previous years were
published in = the [2]Journal= of Bioinformatics and Computational
Biology (JBCB) special issu= es).
