CALL FOR PAPERS
7th IEEE International Conference on Computational
Advances in Bio and Medical Sciences (ICCABS)
October 19-21, Orlando, 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 Big Data Analytics
* Biological modeling and simulation (Molecular and cellu= lar
modeling, stochastic and rule-based modeling, modeling languages
and sy= stems);
* Biomedical image processing (Image segmentation and cla ssification, visualization, functional and molecular imaging);
* Biomedical data and literature mining (Data integration= ,
knowledge discovery from electronic medical records and scientific
litera= ture);
* Computational genetic epidemiology (Linkage and associa= tion
analysis, gene-gene and gene-environment interaction modeling,
genetic= risk analysis);
* Computational metabolomics (Metabolomics databases, met= abolite
identification, spectral analysis, metabolic network modeling);
* Computational proteomics (<= span lang="fr-FR">Peptide
identification and quantification, post-transla= tional
modifications, protein-protein interactions );
* Databases and ontologies (Biomedical data warehouses, d= atabase
integration, biomedical ontologies and semantic web services);
* Gene regulation (Regulatory motifs and modules, post-tr anscriptional regulation, regulatory networks);
* Genome analysis (Genome assembly, genome annotation, co= mparative
genomics, metagenomics);
* Health Informatics (Medical data management and privacy= , medical
recommender systems, therapy optimization);
* High-performance bio-computing (Cloud and grid computin= g,
advanced multi-core, GPU, and FPGA biomedical applications);
* Immunoinformatics (Epitope prediction, vaccine design, = immune
system simulators);
* Molecular evolution (Models of evolution, reconstructio= n of
phylogenetic trees and networks, comparative genomics);
* Population genomics (Haplotype and recombination analys= is,
structural genomic variation, signatures of natural selection);
* Sequence analysis (Multiple sequence alignment, motif d= iscovery,
sequence search and clustering);
* Structural bioinformatics (RNA and protein structure pr= ediction
and classification, molecular docking, RNA and protein design);
* Systems biology (Systems approaches to molecular biolog= y,
multi-scale modeling, biological networks, synthetic biology);
* Transcriptomics (Microarray and sequencing-based transc= riptome
profiling, novel transcript discovery, alternative splicing,
non-co= ding RNA analysis).
