CALL FOR PAPERS
CMSB 2013 The 11th Annual Conference on Computational Methods in Systems Biology 23-25 September, 2013 IST Austria, Klosterneuburg, Austria http://ist.ac.at/cmsb13 IMPORTANT DATES Abstract deadline 8 April, 2013 Paper submission deadline 15 April, 2013 Author notification 27 May, 2013 Poster submission deadline 27 May, 2013 Poster notification 10 June, 2013 Camera-ready deadline 24 June, 2013 AIM & SCOPE CMSB 2013 solicits original research articles on the computational modeling and analysis of biological systems, pathways, networks, data, and corresponding application domains. The conference brings together computer scientists, biologists, mathematicians, engineers, and physicists interested in a system-level understanding of biological processes. It covers theory, computation, experimental data, as well as applications. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: * original paradigms, formalisms, and languages for modeling biological processes * original models together with their application domains * frameworks, techniques, and tools for verifying, validating, analyzing, and simulating biological systems * high-performance computational systems biology and parallel implementations * inference from high-throughput experimental data * model integration from biological databases * multi-scale modeling and analysis methods * synthetic biology Case studies in systems and synthetic biology are especially encouraged. Submitted papers should describe original work that has not been previously published and is not under review for publication elsewhere. There will be an award for Best Paper and a cash prize of $500 USD for the Best Student Paper. The criteria for a Student paper are that the leading (corresponding) author should be registered in a Masters or PhD program, and the contributions and percentages of effort by all authors should be clearly stated in an appendix, outside the page limit, indicating that the submission is in this category. The cash prize is donated by TCSIM (the IEEE Technical Committee on Simulation). Proceedings will be published by Springer LNCS/LNBI. After the conference, a selection of papers will be invited to be extended and submitted to a special issue of Theoretical Computer Science. PAPER SUBMISSION Papers must be edited in LATEX using the LNCS format and be submitted electronically as PDF files via EasyChair. The limit for submissions is 12 pages. POSTER TRACK CMSB 2013 also solicits poster submissions. The abstract of each poster will get 2 pages in the proceedings. Selected posters will also be given slots of short talks at the conference. WE ESPECIALLY ENCOURAGE POSTER SUBMISSION FROM EXPERIMENTAL BIOLOGISTS! In order to facilitate biologists to attend the conference and present their work, a limited number of travel stipends for students and postdocs presenting biology posters will be available.
