Aims and Scope

==============

In the era of big data challenges, as the availability of biological

information becomes ever larger and more complex, more

computational tools are needed to sort through the data. These

include:

* Development of computational methodologies to perform

systematic studies of complex interactions in biological systems

to enable discovery of new emergent properties that may arise

from the integrated systemic view.

* Development of new algorithms and statistics to assess

biological information, such as relationships among members of

very large data sets.

* Development and implementation of tools that enable efficient

access and management of different types of information, such as

various databases, integrated mapping information.

* Visualization of various types of biological data to aid in

analysis and interpretation of nucleotide and amino acid

sequences, protein domains, and protein structures.

CSBio 2013 would like to gather like minded researchers and

industrial counterparts to meet at this event to exchange ideas

and stimulate research growth.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

* Adaptive computation in bioinformatics

* Translational bioinformatics

* Medical and biomedical informatics

* Bio-inspired computing

* DNA, RNA and protein sequence analysis

* Gene expression analysis

* Biomarker discovery

* Disease classification

* Modeling and simulation of biological processes, pathways, etc.

* Parallel and distributed computing

* Molecular evolution and phylogeny

* Functional genomics

* Proteomics & other omics

* Protein folding

* Drug discovery and validation

* Biological network reconstruction and analysis

* Bio-data visualization

Paper Submission

================

The CSBio 2013 online submission system is opened at EasyChair

(http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=csbio2013).

Prospective authors are invited to submit original, high quality

full papers of up to twelve (12) pages electronically. Short papers of 4-6 pages

will also be considered. The submission must conform to the

Elsevier Procedia Computer Science format

(http://www.elsevier.com/wps/find/journaldescription.cws_home/719435/description).

All accepted papers will be published in the proceedings of CSBio

2013 as an Elsevier Procedia Computer Science open

access volume (indexed by EI, Scopus and Conference Proceedings Citation Index

– formerly ISI Proceedings).

All submissions will be checked by VeriGuide for originality

(http://veriguide1.cse.cuhk.edu.hk/portal/page/index.jsp).

Extended versions of selected papers from the conference

proceedings may be invited to the following journals:
