| IEEE International Conference
on Bioinformatics and Biomedicine (BIBM09) Washington DC, USA, Nov. 1-4, 2009 http://www.ittc.ku.edu/bioinformatics/BIBM09 IEEE BIBM 2009 will provide a general forum for disseminating the latest research in bioinformatics and health informatics. It is a multidisciplinary conference that brings together academic and industrial scientists from computer science, biology, chemistry, medicine, mathematics and statistics. It will exchange research results and address open issues in a broad spectrum of bioinformatics and health informatics, with the presentation of work in databases, algorithms, interfaces, visualization, modeling, simulation, ontology and other computational methods, as applied to life science problems. IEEE BIBM 2009 intends to attract a balanced combination of bioinformaticians, computer scientists, biologists, biomedical engineers, chemists, and statisticians. Confirmed keynote speakers include Trey Ideker, Chris Sander, David States, and Stephen Wong. There will also be a roundtable session with program directors from national funding agencies, and another roundtable session on bioinformatics education. We are soliciting high quality original research papers (including significant work-in-progress) in any aspect of bioinformatics and biomedicine. New computational techniques and methods in machine learning; data mining; text analysis; pattern recognition; knowledge representation; databases; data modeling; combinatorics; stochastic modeling; string and graph algorithms; linguistic methods; robotics; constraint satisfaction; data visualization; parallel computation; data integration; modeling and simulation and heir application in life science domain are especially encouraged. Relevant topics included but not limited to: 1. Genomics and Molecular Structure, Function and Evolution 2. a. Next-Gen Sequencing and Metagenomics b. Evolution, Phylogeny, Comparative Genomics c. SNPs and haplotype analysis, GWAS d. Protein/RNA Structure, Function and Interactions 3. Computational Systems Biology 4. a. Transcriptomics - Microarray Data Analysis b.
