About BICoB
The 8th International Conference on Bioinformatics and Computational Biology
(BICoB) provides an excellent venue for researchers and practitioners in the
fields of bioinformatics to present and publish their research results and
techniques. Bioinformatics and computational biology continue to be a vibrant
research area with broadening applications and new emerging challenges. In
recent years, bioinformatics and computational biology have experience
significant advances driven by computational techniques in bioinformatics. The
BICoB conference seeks original and high quality papers in the fields of
bioinformatics, computational biology, systems biology, medical informatics and
the related areas. Work in the computational methods related to, or with
application in, bioinformatics is also encouraged including: bio-data mining,
text mining, machine learning, biomathematics, modeling and simulation, pattern
recognition, data visualization, biostatistics, .etc. The topics of interest
include (and are not limited to):
Genome analysis: Genome assembly, genome annotation, gene finding, alternative
splicing,
EST analysis and comparative genomics.
Sequence analysis: Multiple sequence alignment, sequence search and clustering,
function
prediction, motif discovery, functional site recognition in protein, RNA
and DNA sequences.
Phylogenetics: Phylogeny estimation, models of evolution, comparative
biological methods,
population genetics.
Structural Bioinformatics: Structure matching, prediction, analysis and
comparison; methods
and tools for docking; protein design
Analysis of high-throughput biological data: Microarrays (nucleic acid,
protein, array CGH,
genome tiling, and other arrays), EST, SAGE, MPSS, proteomics, mass
spectrometry.
Genetics and population analysis: Linkage analysis, association analysis,
population simulation,
haplotyping, marker discovery, genotype calling.
Systems biology: Systems approaches to molecular biology, multiscale modeling,
pathways,
gene networks.
Computational Proteomics: Filtering and indexing sequence databases, Peptide
quantification
and identification, Genome annotations via mass spectrometry,
Identification of post-translational
modifications, Structural genomics via mass spectrometry, Protein-protein
interactions,
Computational approaches to analysis of large scale Mass spectrometry
data, Exploration and
visualization of proteomic data, Data models and integration for
proteomics and genomics,
Querying and retrieval of proteomics and genomics data etc.
Journal Publication: Authors of selected high quality papers in BICoB-2016
will be invited to submit extended version of their papers for possible
publication in bioinformatics journals
(selected high quality papers in previous years were published in the Journal
of Bioinformatics and Computational Biology
(JBCB)<http://www.worldscientific.com/worldscinet/jbcb> special issues).
