URGENT DEADLINE
PAPER submission date April 1, 2003
For
IEEE Computer Society Bioinformatics Conference (CSB2003) Stanford, California August 11-14, 2003
There are only 12 days left to submit your paper to CSB2003. Please check your calendars and make sure your submission reaches us by the APRIL 1, 2003 DEADLINE!
Visit the conference website at http://conferences.computer.org/bioinformatics and see the great program that is being put together for this year. The Call for Papers and the Call for Posters can also be found at the conference website. Be a major part of the CSB2003 program by sending us your paper promptly.
Last year we had about 500 participants. This year we expect over 700!
You are invited to submit a paper to the 2003 IEEE Computer Society Bioinformatics Conference (CSB2003). The conference's goal is to facilitate collaboration between computer scientists and biologists by presenting cutting edge computational biology research findings. While such research has an interdisciplinary character, CSB2003 emphasizes the computational aspects of bioinformatics research. Computer science papers must show biological relevance, and biology papers must stress the computational aspects of the results.
CSB2003 will accept 27 papers for podium presentation, and these will be published in the IEEE conference proceedings. Topics of interest include (but are not limited to):
· Machine learning · String & Graph Algorithms · Data Mining · Genome to Life · Robotics · Stochastic Modeling · Data Visualization · Genomics and Proteomics · Regulatory Networks · Gene Expression Pathways · Comparative Genomics · Evolution and Phylogenetics · Pattern Recognition · Molecular Structures & Interactions
Papers are limited to 12 pages, single spaced, in 12 point type, including title, abstract (250 words or less), figures, tables, text, and bibliography. The first page should give keywords, authors' postal and electronic mailing addresses. Submit papers electronically to bioinformatics@computer.org in either postscript or PDF format. A select subset of accepted papers will be invited to also publish in the Journal of Bioinformatics and Computational Biology (http://www.worldscinet.com/jbcb/jbcb.shtml).
The Best Paper will be selected by the Program Committee and announced at the awards ceremony. An HP laptop will be given to the first author of the Best Paper.-
Submissions must be received no later than April 1, 2003. Authors will be notified of their submission's status by May 19, 2003, and final corrected versions must be received by June 8, 2003.
