EvoBIO 2016 - European Conference on Evolutionary Computation, Machine Learning and Data Mining in Computational Biology

Join us in Porto for EvoBIO, a multidisciplinary track that brings together
researchers working in Bioinformatics and Computational Biology that apply
advanced techniques coming from Evolutionary Computation, Machine Learning,
and Data Mining to address important problems in biology, from the molecular
and genomic dimension, to the individual and population level. EvoBIO engages
researchers who are developing or applying advanced artificial intelligence
or machine learning algorithms to cutting edge problems in bioinformatics and
computational biology. Each accepted paper will be presented orally or as a
poster at the conference and will be printed in the proceedings published by
Springer Verlag in the LNCS series. Possible topics of interest include, but
are not limited to:
- Interpreting genomic or metagenomic data
- Discovering regulatory or expression pathways
- Rational drug design and personalized medicine
- Modelling ecosystems or population dynamics
- Discovering genome-disease or genome-phenotype associations
- Biomedical text/data mining and visualization
- Network biology/medicine
- Omics data analysis and functional genomics for complex diseases
- Gene-gene and gene-environment interactions for disease association analysis
- Protein Structure Prediction
- Assembling next generation sequence data
