Table of Contents

The European Conference on Evolutionary Computation, Machine Learning and Data Mining in Bioinformatics is a multidisciplinary conference that brings together researchers working in Bioinformatics that apply advanced techniques coming from Evolutionary Computation, Machine Learning, and Data Mining to address important problems in molecular biology, proteomics, genomics and genetics.

The primary focus of the conference is to present the latest advances of these approaches for Bioinformatics and to provide a forum for the discussion of new research directions.

Topics of Interest

Topics of interest include but are not limited to:

• biomarker discovery
• cell simulation and modelling
• ecological modelling
• fluxomics
• gene networks
• high-throughput biotechnology
• metabolomics
• microarray analysis
• phylogeny
• protein interaction
• proteomics
• sequence analysis and alignment
• biological networks analysis
• systems biology

EvoBIO started in 2002 as workshop organized by the EvoNet (European Network of Excellence in Evolutionary Computation) working group on bioinformatics, and has been held annually since then.

The conference will be held in conjunction with the EuroGP (12th European Conference on Genetic Programming), EvoCOP 2009 (9th European Conference on Evolutionary Computation in Combinatorial Optimisation) and EvoWorkshops 2009, the specialist workshops on a range of evolutionary computation topics and applications (http://www.evostar.org).

Submission of Papers

Submit your manuscript, at most 12 A4 pages long, in Springer LNCS format using the online submission service no later than November 5, 2008. The papers will be peer reviewed by at least three members of the program committee.

The authors of accepted papers will have to improve their paper on the basis of the reviewers' comments. The accepted papers will appear in the conference proceedings, published in Springer LNCS Series, which will be available at the conference.

The accepted papers of the previous editions of EvoBIO were published in the Springer Verlag LNCS 2611, 3005, 3449, 3449, 3449, 3907, 4447, 4973 respectively.

Each accepted paper will be presented orally or as a poster at the conference.

The authors of papers which receive the best reviews will be nominated for the 'Best paper Award'.
