********** CSBio 2014 - Call for Papers *********

The 5th International Conference on Computational Systems-Biology and Bioinformatics (CSBio 2014) will be held in Singapore on November 10-12, 2014.

Important Dates
===============
Paper submission deadline: September 1st, 2014 (final extension)
Notification of acceptance: October 1st, 2014

Organizers
==========
- Nanyang Technological University
- National University of Singapore
- Agency for Science, Technology and Research
- King Mongkut's University of Technology Thonburi


Sponsors
=================
- Memetic computing society
- International Neural Network Society


Aims and Scope
==============
With rapid advance in the generation of high-throughput "omics" data (such as deep sequencing), life science has come to the era of "big data". To extract biological knowledge from the data, and translate it into benefits for society (e.g. better medicine and healthcare), novel computational tools are needed for data analysis and building models. CSBio 2014 would like to invite researchers and industrial counterparts to meet at this event to exchange ideas and stimulate research collaborations.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
* Biological network reconstruction and analysis
* Modeling and simulation of biological processes, pathways, etc.
* Next-generation sequencing
* Gene expression analysis
* Proteomics & other omics
* Functional genomics
* Epigenetics
* DNA, RNA and protein sequence analysis
* Bio-inspired computing
* Adaptive computation in bioinformatics
* Parallel and distributed computing for life science
* Molecular evolution and phylogeny
* Protein folding
* Medical and biomedical informatics
* Translational bioinformatics
* Biomarker discovery
* Bio-data visualization
* Disease classification
* Drug discovery and validation

Paper Submission
================
The CSBio 2014 online submission system is opened at EasyChair (http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=csbio2014).
All submissions will be checked by VeriGuide for originality (http://veriguide1.cse.cuhk.edu.hk/portal/page/index.jsp).
