Third Asia-Pacific Bioinformatics Conference
Singapore

Hosted by: Institute for Infocomm Research, Singapore and Deakin Univeristy, Australia
Venue: Singapore
Dates: Jan 17, 2005 through Jan 21, 2005

Description
 
The Asia-Pacific Bioinformatics Conference series is an annual forum for exploring research, development and novel applications of Bioinformatics. The Third Asia-Pacific Bioinformatics Conference, APBC2005, will be held in Singapore.

KEY INFORMATION
High-throughput sequencing and functional genomics technologies have given us a draft human genome sequence and have enabled large-scale genotyping and gene expression profiling of human populations. Databases containing large numbers of sequences, polymorphisms, and gene expression profiles of normal and diseased tissues in different clinical states are rapidly being generated for human and model organisms. Bioinformatics is thus rapidly growing in importance in the annotation of genomic sequences, in the understanding of the interplay between genes and proteins, in the analysis the genetic variability of species, etc. The aim of this conference is to bring together researchers, professionals, and industrial practitioners for interaction and exchange of knowledge and ideas. We invite submissions that address conceptual and practical issues of bioinformatics.

TOPICS OF INTERESTS
Papers are solicited on, but not limited to, the following topics:
-Novel Applications in Bioinformatics
-Computational Analysis of Biological Data
-Data Mining & Statistical Modeling of Biological Data
-Modelling and Simulation of Biological Processes
-Visualization of Biological Processes and Data
-Management, Migration, and Integration of Biological Databases
-Access, Indexing, and Search in Biological Databases

SUBMISSION GUIDELINES
APBC2005 invites high-quality original papers on any topic related to Bioinformatics. Papers should be no more than 10 pages in length conforming to the formatting instructions for the series Advances in Bioinformatics & Computational Biology (instructions available at the APBC2005 website). Each paper will be fully refereed by an international program committee. Papers will be judged on originality, significance, correctness, and clarity. Authors should submit one copy of a PDF or MS Word file to APBC2005 Paper Submission Website. The proceedings will be published as a volume in the series Advances in Bioinformatics & Computational Biology by Imperial College Press. Expanded version of the best papers will be invited for publication in the Journal of Bioinformatics and Computational Biology.
