     2008 International Conference on BioMedical Engineering
                  and Informatics (BMEI 2008)
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

             28 - 30 May 2008, Sanya, Hainan, China

             Submission Deadline: 10 November 2007

        Call for Papers, Invited Sessions & Sponsorship

The aim of BMEI2008 is to bring together researchers working in many
different areas of biomedical engineering and informatics to foster
international collaborations and exchange of new ideas.

The BMEI 2008 conference proceedings will be published by the IEEE
and will be indexed in both EI and ISTP. Selected good papers will be
recommended for publication in SCI/SCI-E indexed international
journals.

The BMEI 2008 will be co-located with the 2008 Congress on Image and
Signal Processing (CISP 2008: http://www.hainu.edu.cn/CISP2008), in
order to promote cross-fertilization between the broad areas of
biomedical engineering and signal processing.

Dear Colleague:

We would like to bring to your attention a workshop on Data Mining for
Biomedical Informatics at the SIAM International Conference on Data Mining
(SDM08), in Atlanta, Georgia, April 24 - 26, 2008.

This is the second workshop in the series of Data Mining for Biomedical
Informatics workshops held in conjunction with SDM. The URL for the
workshop is:

http://www.cs.rpi.edu/DMBIO08/

This workshop intends to provide a venue to facilitate the exchange of
ideas between scientists in computer science, biology, mathematics and
clinical research by bringing together researchers to discuss and present
sources of data, research topics that may be addressed by such data, and
data mining algorithms that may be used to analyze them. We encourage the
submission of papers that use techniques from disciplines such as
statistics, linear algebra, functional analysis, and signal processing,
applied in some biomedical domain, as well as papers exposing rich sources
of publicly available biomedical data that are of interest to the data
mining community.

Important Dates
