CALL FOR PAPERS - WABI 2014

14th Workshop on Algorithms in Bioinformatics September 8-10, 2014

Wrocław, Poland

http://algo2014.ii.uni.wroc.pl/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 network, 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 ncRNA sequencing.


IMPORTANT DATES

Submission deadline: Saturday 24 May, 2014.
Author notification: Sunday 22 June, 2014.
Final version due: Wednesday 2 July, 2014.
Workshop: 08-10 September, 2014.
