ICCB 2012

Call for Papers: International Conference on Computational Biology ICCB 2012

CFP: International Conference on Computational Biology ICCB 2012 Draft Paper Submission Deadline: 2 July, 2012 Camera-Ready Papers Due & Registration Deadline: 30 July, 2012 ICCB 2012: San Francisco, USA, 24-26 October, 2012 http://www.iaeng.org/WCECS2012/ICCB2012.html

The conference ICCB'12 is held under the World Congress on Engineering and Computer Science WCECS 2012. The WCECS 2012 is organized by the International Association of Engineers (IAENG), a non-profit international association for the engineers and the computer scientists. The congress has the focus on the frontier topics in the theoretical and applied engineering and computer science subjects. The WCECS conferences serve as good platforms for our members and the entire engineering community to meet with each other and to exchange ideas. Our last IAENG conference has attracted more than one thousand participants from over 30 countries, and our conference committees have been formed with over two hundred and sixty committee members who are mainly research center heads, faculty deans, department heads, professors, and research scientists from over 20 countries.

All submitted papers will be under peer review and accepted papers will be published in the conference proceeding (ISBN: 978-988-19251-6-9). The abstracts will be indexed and available at major academic databases. The accepted papers will also be considered for publication in the special issues of the journal Engineering Letters, in IAENG journals and in edited books. Revised and expanded version of the selected papers may also be included as book chapters in the standalone edited books under the framework of cooperation between IAENG and publishers like Springer. For reference, the following post conference edited books of our recent IAENG conferences: Trends in Intelligent Systems and Computer Engineering, Advances in Communication Systems and Electrical Engineering, Advances in Industrial Engineering and Operations Research, and Advances in Computational Algorithms and Data Analysis, have been published by Springer.

The topics of the ICCB'12 include, but not limited to, the following: Biomedicine, epidemiology, & agriculture Computer-aided drug design Databases & database integration Evolution and phylogenetics Metabolomics Ontologies Pathways, networks, and systems Proteomics Sequence analysis Simulation & system dynamics Structural bioinformatics Text mining Transcriptomics Microarray Data Analysis Micro RNA and RNAi Biomedical Applications Therapeutic Applications of Computational Biology Computational Drug Discovery Computational Proteomics Computational genomics Microbial Community Analysis Synthetic Biological Systems Evolution and Phylogenetics Sequence Motifs, Alignments, and families Functional Genomics Promoter Analysis and Discovery, Recognition of Regulatory Elements Comparative Genomics and Annotation Genetic Variation (SNPs and Haplotyping, etc.) Development Control Measuring Cellular Metabolism and Cellular Signaling

Submission:

ICCB 2012 is now accepting manuscript submissions. Prospective authors are invited to submit their draft paper in full paper (any appropriate style) to wcecs{at}iaeng.org by 2 July, 2012. The submitted file can be in MS Word format, PS format, or PDF formats.

The first page of the draft paper should include: (1) Title of the paper; (2) Name, affiliation and e-mail address for each author; (3) A maximum of 5 keywords of the paper.

Also, the name of the conference that the paper is being submitted to should be stated in the email.

It is our target that the reviewing process and the result notification for each submitted manuscript can be completed within one month from its submission. The reviewing process is to ensure the quality of the accepted papers in the WCECS congress. The conferences have enjoyed high reputation among many research colleagues.
