| ACM Conference on Bioinformatics, Computational Biology and Biomedicine (ACM-BCB 2012): Call for Papers (Deadline Extended) New Deadlines: June 7, 2012 (Abstract submission), June 15, 2012 (Paper submission) Conference Dates: October 7-10 2012 Conference Venue: Embassy Suites, Downtown Orlando, FL Conference Website: http://www.cse.buffalo.edu/ACM-BCB2012/ ACM Conference on Bioinformatics, Computational Biology and Biomedicine (ACM BCB) is the main flagship conference of the ACM SIG Bioinformatics. ACM BCB 2012 is in its third year, building upon the success of ACM BCB 2010 in Niagara Falls and ACM BCB 2011 in Chicago. Each of the conference had about 200 attendees. ACM BCB 2012 will be held in Orlando from October 7-10, 2012. The conference will provide a premier forum for interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary research encompassing disciplines of computer science, mathematics, statistics, biology, bioinformatics, and biomedicine. The last two decades have led to a tremendous growth in the size and dimensionality of biological and biomedical data. This conference serves to provide information on leading edge in research in processing, modeling and analyzing these datasets for a variety of applications. The tracks that will be covered include: • Systems biology • Protein & RNA structure • Text mining for biomedical studies • Comparative genomics, population & cancer genomics • Algorithms for sequence analysis • Bioimage Analysis • Databases, Knowledgebases & Ontologies Contributed Papers: ACM BCB’ 12 welcomes original submissions that have not been published and that are not under review by another conference or journal. Papers should not exceed 8 pages in ACM template on 8.5 x 11 inch paper (see ACM templates). All submissions will be evaluated on their originality, technical soundness, significance, presentation, and interest to the conference attendees. Submission implies the willingness of at least one of the authors to register and present the work associated with the paper submitted. All submitted papers will be reviewed by ACM-BCB’s technical program committee. All accepted papers of registered authors will be included in the proceedings published by ACM digital libraries. Selected papers will be invited to adapt their papers for their publication in several journals. All accepted papers will be required to submit an online ACM Copyright Form. Authors will be contacted by ACM requesting this information. Submissions must not exceed 8 letter-size pages using the ACM format for conference proceedings. Details for the submission website will be released soon. Key Dates for Contributed Papers Abstract submission: June 7, 2012 Paper submission: June 15, 2012 Notifications sent to authors: July 22, 2012 Camera-ready papers due: August 16, 2012 Posters: Poster presentations provide a unique environment that enhances informal interactions with flexible format that enables your work to reach a large audience, at the same time permitting in-depth discussion.We encourage authors to submit posters (24 inches by 36 inches) that discuss new algorithms or novel computational approaches broadly in Bioinformatics, Computational Biology, Systems Biology, and Biomedicine. Presentations describing either novel computational techniques or significant biological discovery through application of existing computational techniques are welcome. Key dates for Posters: Submission deadline: July 20, 2012 Notification of Acceptance of Posters: August 3, 2012 Tutorials: We are looking for tutorials discussing state-of-the art analysis methods that provide the audience with broad insights into the discussed methodologies, and with practical knowledge of how to apply them on their own datasets. Tutorial submission should consist of: Title and description (1 page), Proposer’s name, brief biography and contact information, and Length of the tutorial (should be between 2-4 hours). It should also provide the the intended audience, background requirement, importance to the BCB community and benefits to the participants. Additional details are available on the conference website. Tutorial proposals should be submitted electronically in PDF format to the general chair no later than June 15, 2012. If you have any questions, please contact Jing Li (jingli at cwru dot edu). Key dates for Tutorials: Submission deadline: June 15, 2012 Notification of Acceptance of Tutorials:July 16, 2012 Organizing Committee Steering Committee Aidong Zhang, State University of New York at Buffalo, Chair General Chair Sanjay Ranka, University of Florida Program Co-chairs Tamer Kahveci, University of Florida Mona Singh, Princeton University Workshop Chair Vasant Honavar, Iowa State University Tutorial Chair Jing Li, Case Western Reserve University Poster Chair Umit Catalyurek, The Ohio State University Panel Chair Srinivas Aluru, Iowa State University Publicity Chair Mehmet Koyuturk, Case Western Reserve University Registration Chair Preetam Ghosh, VCU Proceedings Chair Jing Gao, SUNY Buffalo Local Arrangement Chairs Hu Haiyan, Unviersity of Central Florida Xiaoning Qian, University of South Florida Area Chairs: Systems Biology Jinbo Xu, Toyota Tech Inst at Chicago Tamer Kahveci, University of Florida Mehmet Koyuturk, Case Western Reserve University Protein & RNA Structure Lenore Cowen, Tufts University Chris Bailey-Kellogg, Dartmouth College Text Mining for Biomedical Studies Sun Kim, Indiana University Hagit Shatkay, University of Delaware Comparative Genomics, Population & Cancer Genomics Oliver Eulenstein, Iowa State University Tanya Berger-Wolf, University of Illinois at Chicago Ben Raphael, Brown University Algorithms for Sequence Analysis John Kececioglu, University of Arizona S.Cenk Sahinalp, Simon Fraser University Mihai Pop, University of Maryland Bioimage Analysis Ambuj Singh, University of California, Santa Barbara Robert Murphy, Lane Center for Computational Biology Databases, Knowledgebases & Ontologies Wei Wang, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill Gultekin Ozsoyoglu, Case Western Reserve University Limsoon Wong, National University of Singapore Program Committee: Ali Cakmak, Oracle, Inc.
