CBGI 2007
7th Atlantic Symposium on Computational Biology & Genome Informatics
CBGI 2007 Call For Paper
Aim and Scope:
There are many newly acquired biomolecular data collections, including the sequenced genomes, gene expression data, molecular structure data, etc. The follow up question for the research community is this: How do these newly acquired data affect related fields of bioinformatics and the ways biological data can be and should be studied? In other words, how should biology be studied as comparable and meaningful patterns and information derived? And what does it all mean?
Firstly, these newly acquired data will be analyzed using computational principles and methods traditional available. In this sense, analyzing biomolecular data will benefit enormously from what we already know from the wide field of the information sciences. Secondly, these data can be represented in a substantially different form, as complicated structure of codes that may not be systematically studied in the traditional computational disciplines. Hence it may necessitate the new development of computational methods and new unifying notions that, perhaps will dramatically affect our deeper understanding in how some special form of structured data can be analyzed.
In a larger scope, we believe some new mathematics, such as popular mathematics of uncertainty, will play an important role to solve biological problems. Furthermore, we have witnessed in the past two decades that biologically inspired algorithms turn out to very powerful. We must learn from biological and nature phenomena in order to have a big leap forward in intelligent and reliable systems. Hence, we are very much interested in DNA computers for that reason. Quality papers focusing on, but not limited to, the research topics are invited for this distinguished symposium.
