ACM International Conference On Bioinformatics, Computational Biology,
and Biomedicine (ACM-BCB 2012)
October 7-10 2012
Embassy Suites, Downtown Orlando, FL
ACM-BCB Website: http://www.cse.buffalo.edu/ACM-BCB2012
ACM BCB is the main flagship conference of the ACM SIG Bioinformatics.
The conference will provide a premier forum for interdisciplinary and
multidisciplinary research encompassing disciplines of computer
science, mathematics, statistics, biology, bioinformatics, and
biomedicine. The last two decades have led to a tremendous growth in
the size and dimensionality of biological and biomedical data. This
conference serves to provide information on leading edge in research
in processing, modeling and analyzing these datasets for a variety of
applications. We invite contributed papers, posters, workshops and
tutorials in the topic areas listed below. Please refer to the
conference website for more details. We also invite contributed
presentations for papers that have been published in a journal after
January 1, 2012. Only one page abstracts for these papers will appear
in the proceedings. Please refer to the conference website for more
details.
