Description |
|
| IWSG-Life 2012 will bring together scientists from the field of life sciences, bioinformatics and computer science. The aim is to exchange experience, formulate ideas and introduce up-to-date technological advances in molecular and systems biology in the context of Science Gateways. The workshop will take place in conjunction with the Healthgrid Conference 2012 and featuring EGI.eu. We invite the submission of papers related to various aspects of molecular and systems biology and science gateways. Suggested topics include, but are not limited to: * Management of biological high-throughput data * Modelling protein-carbohydrate recognition * Machine learning for computational immunomics * Molecular simulations for drug discovery * Portal technology and portal construction methods * Usage models and gateway tools for life sciences * Security aspects of Science Gateways for life sciences * Usability studies of life sciences portals/gateways * Workflows and service composition for life sciences * Service discovery and ontologies for life sciences * Tools for managing grid and cloud portability * Integration of life sciences with e-infrastructures * Demonstrations/success stories There are three alternatives for researchers to present their work: talks, lightning talks, and demonstration sessions. Submission of a full paper may result in a talk, submission of an abstract may result in a lightning talk or a demonstration. Additionally, attendees are invited to participate in a structured discussion facilitated by EGI.eu and an open discussion at the end of the workshop. Accepted full papers will be published in PubMed-listed proceedings together with the proceedings of the Healthgrid Conference 2012. |
