Welcome to the 2017 IEEE International Conference on Bioinformatics and Biomedicine (IEEE BIBM 2017) being held in Kansas City, USA from November 13-16, 2017.  On behalf of the IEEE BIBM 2017 Organizing Team, we would like to  thank  you  for  your  participation  and  hope  you  enjoy the conference. Bioinformatics  and  biomedicine  research  is  fundamental  to  our  understanding  of  complex  biological systems, impacting on science and technology in fields ranging from agricultural and environmental  sciences  to  pharmaceutical  and  medical  sciences.    This  type  of  research  requires  close collaboration among multidisciplinary teams of researchers in computer science, statistics, physics,  engineering,  life  sciences  and  medical  sciences,  and  their  interfaces.    The  IEEE  International  Conference  on  Bioinformatics  and  Biomedicine  aims  to  provide  an  open  and  interactive forum to catalyze the cross-fertilization of ideas from these disciplines and to bridge gaps in our knowledge. The  IEEE  BIBM  2017  promises  to  provide  great  scientific  quality  and  to  have  a  broad  impact,  with  world  renowned  scientists  as  keynote  speakers  and  invited  speakers,  contributed  talks  at  a  highly competitive acceptance rate, special issue publications in high-caliber scientific journals, and a broad participation of the research communities serving on the Program Committee and the organizing  committees  for  workshops,  tutorials,  and  posters.    The  scientific  program  highlights  five themes to provide breadth, depth, and synergy for research collaboration: (1) genomics and molecular  structure,  function,  and  evolution;  (2)  computational  systems  biology;  (3)  medical  informatics   and   translational   bioinformatics;   (4)   cross-cutting   computational   methods   and   bioinformatics  infrastructures,  and  (5)  healthcare  informatics,  which  includes  approximately  20  topics.
