EvoBIO 2018 - Evolutionary Computation, Machine Learning and Data Mining for Biology and Medicine

Join us in Parma for EvoBIO, a multidisciplinary track that brings together researchers working in Bioinformatics, Medical Applications and Computational Biology that apply advanced techniques coming from Evolutionary Computation, Machine Learning, and Data Mining to address important problems in medical applications and biology, from the molecular and genomic dimension, to the individual and population level. 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:
Medical imaging,signal processing and text analysis
Data mining medical data and records
Clinical expert systems
Modelling and simulation of medical processes
Drug description analysis
Patient-centric care
Interpreting genomic or metagenomic data
Discovering regulatory or expression pathways
Rational drug design and personalized medicine
Modeling 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 interactions and gene-environment interactions for disease association analysis
Protein Structure Prediction
Assembling next generation sequence data
