SUBMISSION GUIDELINES
APBC2007 invites high-quality original papers on any topic related to Bioinformatics. Papers should be no more than 10 pages in length, all-inclusive - title, addresses, abstract, text, figures, tables, and references, conforming to the formatting instructions for the series Advances in Bioinformatics and Computational Biology (instructions available at the APBC2007 website). Papers will be judged on originality, significance, correctness, and clarity. Authors should submit a PDF file according to the instructions on the APBC2007 Paper Submission Website. The full paper must be submitted by 15 July 2006. The proceedings will be published as a volume in the series Advances in Bioinformatics and Computational Biology by Imperial College Press. Expanded version of selected papers will be invited for publication in the Journal of Bioinformatics and Computational Biology. Inclusion of a paper in the proceedings is contingent on one of the authors registering and presenting at the conference.
