BCB 2012 - BCB' 12 ACM International Conference on Bioinformatics, Computational Biology and Biomedicine

ACM Conference on Bioinformatics, Computational Biology and Biomedicine (ACM BCB) is the main flagship conference of the ACM SIG Bioinformatics. ACM BCB 2012 is in its third year, building upon the success of ACM BCB 2010 in Niagara Falls and ACM BCB 2011 in Chicago. Each of the conference had about 200 attendees. ACM BCB 2012 will be held in Orlando from October 7-10, 2012.
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.
Examples of the topics that will be covered include:
Genomics and Evolution
Protein and RNA Structure, Protein Function, and Proteomics
Computational Systems Biology
Next Generation Sequencing Data
Medical Informatics and Translational Bioinformatics
Cross-Cutting Computational Methods
Bioinformatics Infrastructure
Immunoinformatics and Computational Immunology
Computational Epidemiology
Image Analysis
Knowledge Representation and Inference
Integration of Biomedical Data
Databases, Knowledgebases & Ontologies
Text Mining and Natural Language Processing
