Q: Can someone else submit my poster for me?
A: Yes but if you are a member you will need to provide them with your ISCB member ID and Password. If you don't recall your password use this link: http://www.iscb.org/iscb-forgot-your-password

• Members, plan ahead to ensure that your membership is valid, that you remember your ISCB ID and Password. Your ISCB ID can only be used once for a poster submission.

• Non-members please ensure your credit card information is correct and valid as payment is required for the submission.

If you are a non-member anyone can submit but they will need to pay the submission fee on your behalf and identify you as the presenter after payment is made during the submission process (Please note a member submitting on behalf of a non-member presenter must use the Payment Option 2 on the poster submission page when submitting for the poster presenter). Membership benefits are non-transferable.

Remember it will save you money to become a member of ISCB as there is no cost to submit a poster as an ISCB member and the conference registration will also be a lower price for members. Either way you save!

Join ISCB here: https://www.iscb.org/iscb-new-member-registration

Q: Can I submit more than one poster?
A: No you should only submit one poster - the conference only allows one poster per author for presentation. The acceptance rate for posters is generally very high so there is no need to submit more than one poster.

Q: If I pay to submit a poster can I get a refund if my poster is not accepted?
A: No refunds will be provided for poster submission payments.

Call for Proceedings - ISMB 2016

Call for Proceedings Submission Site: Closed

ISMB 2016 brings together Bioinformaticians and Computational Biologists working in a wide range of disciplines, including molecular biology, biology, medicine, computer science, mathematics and statistics. Papers that demonstrate both the development of new computational techniques and their application to Molecular and Systems Biology, with significant outcomes to biomedical, agricultural, and environmental questions are especially encouraged.

Review Process:

Submissions will be subject to two rounds of reviews, allowing the authors to reply to the reviewer comments. In the first round the submissions will be classified into three categories: (a) accept/minor changes, (b) major changes, and (c) not accepted. Papers in the first category will be accepted without a second round of review. Authors of submissions in the second category will be given the opportunity to submit revised drafts based on the reviewer comments, with letters of reply to the reviewers outlining the main changes and/or giving counter arguments to the reviewer points. We expect the majority of papers to fall in categories (a) and (c), with category (b) reserved for papers that the reviewers identified as strong but with substantial issues that need to be addressed. Among the resubmitted papers, the second round of review will select the most suitable papers for presentation. These will be published in the Bioinformatics journal and presented at the conference. The authors of submissions that will not be accepted in the second round will be given the opportunity to be redirected to an on-line issue of the Bioinformatics journal (fully citable; equal to regular publication in this journal), subjected to the Editorial considerations of Bioinformatics.

The presentation of talks at ISMB is by thematic area. Oral presentations from accepted submissions from Highlights, Proceedings and Late Breaking Research will be presented by theme area. A listing of Theme Chairs is available here.

• Data:
  Applied Bioinformatics
  Bioimaging
  Databases, Ontologies, & Text Mining
  
  
• Disease:
  Disease Models & Epidemiology
  
  
• Genes:
  Evolution and Comparative Genomics (genes/genomes)
  Gene Regulation
  RNA Bioinformatics
  Sequence Analysis (genes)
  
  
• Proteins:
  Evolution and Comparative Genomics (proteins)
  Protein Interactions & Molecular Networks (protein interactions)
  Protein Structure & Function
  Sequence Analysis (proteins)
  
  
• Systems:
  Population Genomics
  Protein Interactions & Molecular Networks (molecular networks)
  
  

Submitters will choose the track area best suited to their paper during the submission process.

top

Papers will be assigned to Track Areas and three reviews sought. Papers may be moved between areas as appropriate - this is often necessary for load balance and fit between areas during the review process. Accepted papers will be published as conference proceedings in an open access, online-only, section of a regular issue of the Bioinformatics journal with an electronic version distributed to conference delegates. The proceedings will be available online approximately one month prior to the conference opening.

Publication of the proceedings as an online part of the Bioinformatics journal will result in fully citable articles, indexed by Medline and ISI. See the conference proceedings for ISMB/ECCB 2015 for an example of online-only publication by Oxford University Press.

ISMB 2016 provides authors of accepted papers an oral presentation to provide an oral summary of their work. All presentations should be no longer than 15 minutes and will be followed by a maximum of 3-minute discussions.

Papers can be submitted in either a template-free format or in the format following the template for author submission to the OUP journal bioinformatics. If the OUP template is used the paper length must not exceed nine pages. If the template-free format is used the length of the paper must not exceed 12 pages (single space, 12 point font), including abstract, figures, tables, and bibliography. In either case, the paper must contain an abstract whose length does not exceed 250 words.

After acceptance papers will have to be formatted according to the layout style required by the OUP bioinformatics journal and will be limited to 9 pages. Formatting requirements can be found at: http://www.oxfordjournals.org/bioinformatics/for_authors/submission_online.html

If absolutely necessary, submissions can be accompanied by supplementary material, similar to submissions to scientific journals. The supplementary material should be collected in a separate file that is appropriately marked and uploaded as an attachment on the paper submission page in EasyChair. However, we advise against adding supplementary material, in general. Supplementary material will be published on the proceedings site alongside the online version of the conference paper. We do not support supplementary material presented at any other than the publisher's site. Additionally, OUP does not edit or typeset supplementary data - it is uploaded online exactly as it is received, so authors must ensure its accuracy before submitting.

Papers should be submitted in their final form since the evaluation procedure does not allow for additional rounds of refinement / modification in response to referee criticisms. Poor quality submissions or insufficiently prepared papers are very often rejected. Paper presenters must register and pay to attend and present at the conference.

For submissions to the Proceedings track, ISMB does not accept previously published works through peer-reviewed publications. Please note that conference presentations, posting on recognized preprint servers (such as Arxiv, Biorxiv and PeerJ preprints), or posting on a personal or employer's website do not constitute prior publication. In case of doubt, please contact This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.

PAPERS NOT CONFORMING TO THESE GUIDELINES WILL BE RETURNED WITHOUT REVIEW.

Papers submitted for review should represent original, previously unpublished work. At the time the paper is submitted to ISMB 2016, and for the entire review period, the paper should not be under review by any other conference or scientific journal.

Papers will be accepted electronically, in PDF format only, at the submission site until Friday, January 15, 2016 (midnight any time zone).

Call for Special Sessions Proposals - ISMB 2016

Special Session Chair: This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it., The Hebrew University of Jerusalem, Israel

** Special Sessions Submissions - Closes: December 4, 2015

ISMB 2016 will feature a Special Sessions Track (SST) that will run throughout the conference in parallel to other tracks (except the keynote presentations). In its structure, each Special Session provides more in-depth look at the subject matter presented. Proposals for special sessions should be submitted via the online submission system at here by December 4, 2015.  In case you would like to consult on your proposed idea prior to submission please contact Michal Linial (This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.)

Special Sessions have the purpose of introducing the ISMB community to relevant 'hot' topics that were not covered in previous meetings or that had gone through fast evolution in recent years.  It can be considered as a mini-symposium on a frontier of timely topic, presented by top experts. 

A wide range of topics is possible, as long as they importantly influence computational biology and bioinformatics. We also encourage topics that are marginal to computational biology but clearly will need the involvement of such expertise in the near future. The proposed topics for SST  might, for example, cover emerging themes that ISMB is not currently approaching with the desired proficiency. Some attractive topics include "Analysis on a single molecule level"; "A computational view of 3D-chromatin "; "Optogenetics – live imaging of the brain"; "the Microbiome and Virome"; “Ancient DNA-human evolution”. "Circuits and reprogramming in biological systems" and more.

In addition we would like to encourage submission that deal with the Society-Computational Biology interface including open issues. Examples might be “Stem cells and ethics”; “Matrices for success and impact”, "Medical parctice meets social sciences". "the advanced in brain connectome". We encourage you to submit a proposal on an area that you deem as important to the computational biology community and may impact the future of the field.

This call is an invitation for scientists and professionals to submit proposals for special sessions for ISMB 2016, to take place at the Swan and Dolphin Hotel, Orland, United States, July 10 - 12.

Eligibility Requirements

1. Applicant must be a current ISCB member whose membership does not expire prior to the last day of the conference (July 12, 2016). Applications will not be accepted from non-members; pending memberships do not qualify and must be paid in full prior to submission of an application.
2. Applicant must be listed as an author or co-author on the original submission of an accepted ISMB 2016 Proceedings paper, Highlight paper, Late Breaking Research abstract, or Poster (excluding accepted Late Posters), and, per the requirements of the funding agencies, the funded applicant must be the presenting author of the work. (Submitters to the "Call for Late Posters" are not eligible for fellowship funding.)
3. Applicant must be registered in a degree program (undergraduate or graduate) or as a postdoctoral research fellow at an accredited educational institution at the time of the conference; post docs and employees of any US federal agency are ineligible for funding using US federal funds - currently we have only US federal funds for this travel fellowship program.
4. Applicant must be prepared to register for ISMB 2016 by the early registration deadline of June 2, 2016, and plan to attend all 3 conference days (July 10, 11, 12). If attendance at the conference is dependent on receipt of travel fellowship funds, please do not register until after the notification of travel fellowship funding. Any funded applicant failing to register for the conference by the early registration deadline of June 6, 2016 will automatically forfeit the funds so that another applicant can be awarded from among the original pool of applicants.
5. Applicant must be able to pay all expenses of attending the conference up front, including conference registration fee (as noted in #4 above), travel, accommodations and meals.

Eligible expenses

Eligible expenses toward travel fellowship funds include conference registration, transportation (air or land transportation from home region to conference city), a maximum of $660 USD of hotel room and occupancy tax charges, and a maximum of $165 USD in meal expenses. In order to receive the full-awarded amount, receipts for registration, transportation and hotel accommodations are required that equal or exceed the awarded amount. Conference registration fee is reimbursable at the early registration pricing only; registration fees to attend pre-conference events such as SIGs and Tutorials are not reimbursable expenses, but the registration fee for the Student Council Symposium is an accepted expense (only when also registering for the full conference).

top

Notification

Applicants will be notified no later than May 27, 2016 of the funding status. In some cases applicants may be notified they are on a wait list for funding, which means that ISCB is fully expecting but still awaiting the formal confirmation of our grant award from one or more granting agency, and that awarding of those funds will not be possible until the grant needed to fund the travel fellowship is confirmed. Any wait listed applicant that is eventually awarded funds will be offered the opportunity to register at the early registration rate, therefore, please do not register for the conference if your attendance is fully dependent on being awarded a travel fellowship as any cancellation of an applicant's registration will be subject to the full regular registration cancellation policy.

Funded applicants will be required to present evidence of their eligibility status (such as student identification card) at the conference registration desk to receive their funds, and must sign in with the Travel Fellowships Desk to record their attendance. In all cases, funds will be mailed to funded applicants after the conference per the details noted in Eligibility Requirements #5 above. This email address is being protected from spambots.
