CALL FOR PAPERS

   6th IEEE International Conference on Computational
   Advances in Bio and Medical Sciences (ICCABS)
   October 13-15, Georgia Institute of Technology, Atlanta, GA, USA

   Advances in high-throughput technologies such as DNA sequencing and
   mass spectrometry a= re profoundly transforming life sciences,
   resulting in the collection of unprecedented amounts of biological and
   medical data.  Using this data to= advance our knowledge about
   fundamental biological processes and improve hu= man health requires
   novel computational models and advanced analysis algorithms= . 
   IEEE ICCABS aims to bring together leading academic and industry
   researcher= s to discuss the latest advances in computational methods
   for bio and medical sciences.

     * Biological modeling and simulation (Molecular and cellular
       modeling, stochastic and rule-based modeling, 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 medical records and scientific
       literature);
