Call for papers: Computational Intelligence in Biomedical Informatics

Special issues of
International Journal of Computational Biology and Drug Design,
International Journal of Functional Informatics and Personalised Medicine

Advances in information technology techniques have facilitated, accelerated, and promoted the research on molecular biology and medicine in the past few decades. To discover more new knowledge in biomedical areas and to improve the quality of healthcare and medicine, the techniques and applications of artificial intelligence, machine learning, data mining, and high performance computing are extremely useful. This special issue aims to attract state-of-the-art solutions and novel attempts in the area of computational intelligence in biomedical informatics.

Please note that although this announcement is being sent to the research community at large, authors who have published papers in IIBM 2010 will have a higher priority. (IIBM 2010 is the International Workshop on Intelligent Informatics in Biology and Medicine , to be held February, 15-18, 2010, Andrzej Frycz Modrzewski Cracow College Krakow, Poland.)

Papers will be published in either the International Journal of Computational Biology and Drug Design or the International Journal of Functional Informatics and Personalised Medicine.

Papers to be included in these special issues should be focused on computational intelligence in one or more of the following subjects (n.b. the list is indicative rather than exhaustive):
  • Gene expression analysis
  • Gene identification and annotation
  • Protein/RNA structure prediction
  • RNAi and microRNA analysis
  • Sequence and structural motifs
  • Microarray analysis
  • Modelling of biochemical pathways
  • Drug design
  • Genomics and proteomics
  • Systems biology
  • Medical signal/image processing
  • Computer assisted surgery
  • Medical/healthcare informatics
  • Biomedical text mining and information extraction
Important Dates
Submission: 1 June 2010
Notification: 25 July 2010
Camera ready papers: 20 August 2010
