<P>In the ever–evolving fields of computational biology and bioinformatics, it is essential that researchers and industry stay on top of changes in applications and techniques in mathematical, statistical and computational science. Current issues related to this topic involve advancements in bioinformatics including microarray data analysis, functional genomics, and computational proteomics.</P> <P>The IASTED International Symposium on Computational Biology and Bioinformatics (CBB 2008) will be a multidisciplinary meeting for researchers from academia and industry to gather, exchange ideas, and discuss new directions in these areas. All papers submitted to this conference will be double–blind reviewed by at least two reviewers. Acceptance will be based primarily on originality and contribution.</P> <P><B>Keywords:</B> <FONT size=2></P> <H3 class=article> <TABLE class=scope style=″MARGIN–TOP: 0em″ cellSpacing=4 cellPadding=0 summary=″List of Topics″> <TBODY> <TR> <TD> <H3 class=article>Biology</H3></TD></TR> <TR> <TD style=″PADDING–RIGHT: 0em; WIDTH: 33%″ vAlign=top> <UL class=scopelist style=″MARGIN–TOP: 0.4em″> <LI>Microarray data analysis </LI> <LI>Micro RNA and RNAi </LI> <LI>Pathways and networks </LI> <LI>Biomedical applications: </LI> <LI>Therapeutic applications of computational biology </LI> <LI>Computational drug discovery </LI> <LI>Computational proteomics </LI> <LI>Microbial community analysis </LI> <LI>Synthetic biological systems </LI> <LI>Evolution and phylogenetics </LI> <LI>Sequence motifs, alignments and families </LI> <LI>Gene structure, regulation and modeling: </LI> <LI>Functional genomics </LI> <LI>Promoter analysis and discovery, recognition of regulatory elements </LI> <LI>Comparative genomics and annotation </LI> <LI>Genetic variation (SNPs and haplotyping, etc.) </LI> <LI>Development control </LI> <LI>Measuring cellular metabolism and cellular signaling </LI> <LI>Computational neurobiology </LI> <LI>Computational ecology </LI> <LI>Mathematical and quantitative models of cellular and multicellular systems </LI></UL></TD> <TD style=″PADDING–RIGHT: 1em; WIDTH: 33%″ vAlign=top> <UL class=scopelist style=″MARGIN–TOP: 0.4em″></UL></TD></TR> <TR> <TD> <H3 class=article>Computation</H3></TD></TR> <TR> <TD style=″PADDING–RIGHT: 1em; WIDTH: 33%″ vAlign=top> <UL class=scopelist style=″MARGIN–TOP: 0.4em″> <LI>Biological data mining </LI> <LI>Biomedical literature text mining </LI> <LI>Data visualization </LI> <LI>High performance biocomputing </LI> <LI>Parallel and distributed computation </LI> <LI>Machine learning </LI> <LI>Pattern recognition </LI> <LI>Knowledge representation </LI> <LI>Databases </LI> <LI>Combinatorics </LI> <LI>Stochastic modeling </LI> <LI>String and graph algorithms </LI> <LI>Linguistic methods </LI> <LI>Robotics </LI> <LI>Constraint satisfaction </LI> <LI>Information theory and statistical analysis </LI> <LI>Hidden Markov model </LI> <LI>Ontologies and semantic web systems for biology </LI> <LI>Clinical informatics </LI> <LI>Neural networks </LI> <LI>Time series analysis </LI> <LI>Sequencing and arrangement algorithms </LI> <LI>SWARM </LI></UL></TD> <TD style=″PADDING–RIGHT: 1em; WIDTH: 33%″ vAlign=top> <UL class=scopelist style=″MARGIN–TOP: 0.4em″></UL></TD></TR> <TR> <TD> <H3 class=article>Interdisciplinary Issues</H3></TD></TR> <TR> <TD style=″PADDING–RIGHT: 1em; WIDTH: 33%″ vAlign=top> <UL class=scopelist style=″MARGIN–TOP: 0.4em″> <LI>Bioinformatics project management (Data management methods and systems) </LI> <LI>International cooperation in bioinformatics research </LI> <LI>Philosophy, ethics of bioinformatics </LI> <LI>Future trends of bioinformatics </LI></UL></TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE></H3></FONT>
