WABI 2016 - Final Call for Papers - Deadline extended to May 5
16th Workshop on Algorithms in Bioinformatics
August 22-24, 2016. Aarhus, Denmark
===================================================================
Submission deadline extended to: May 5, 23:59, 2016 (any timezone)
http://conferences.au.dk/algo16/wabi
===================================================================
Scope:
All research in algorithmic work in bioinformatics, computational biology and systems biology. The emphasis is mainly on discrete algorithms and machine-learning methods that address important problems in molecular biology, that are founded on sound models, that are computationally efficient, and that have been implemented and tested in simulations and on real datasets. The goal is to present recent research results, including significant work-in-progress, and to identify and explore directions of future research.
Topics:
Original research papers (including significant work-in-progress) or state-of-the-art surveys are solicited in all aspects of algorithms in bioinformatics, computational biology and systems biology - including, but not limited to:
* Exact and approximate algorithms for sequence analysis, gene and signal recognition, alignment and assembly, molecular evolution, structure determination or prediction, gene expression, molecular pathways and networks, proteomics, functional and comparative genomics, and drug design.
* Methods, software, and data repositories for development and testing of such algorithms and their underlying models, as well as high-performance computing approaches to hard learning and optimization problems.
* Novel approaches to analyzing and modeling next-generation sequence data, including sequence assembly, population genomics, metagenomics, metatranscriptomics and small RNA sequencing.
Important Dates:
Submission deadline: May 5, 2016
Author notification: May 30, 2016
Final version due: June 13, 2016
