Call for Paper
IEEE 7th Symposium on Bioinformatics & Bioengineering (BIBE07),
Co-sponsored by the IEEE Computer Society, the Biological and Artificial
Intelligence Society (BAIS) in cooperation with Wright State University,
Dayton, Ohio; Purdue University, West Lafayette, Indiana; Georgia State
University, Atlanta, Georgia; Massachusetts General Hospital, Harvard
Medical School and Harvard University, will be held at Cambridge - Boston,
Massachusetts, USA, October 15-17, 2007.
Bioinformatics and Bioengineering are complementary disciplines that
hold great promise for the advancement of research and development in
complex medical and biological systems, agriculture, environment, public
health, drug design, and so on. Research and development in these two
areas are impacting the science and technology of fields such as medicine,
food production, forensics, etc. by advancing fundamental concepts in
molecular biology and in medicine, by helping us understand living
organisms at multiple levels, by developing innovative implants and
prosthetics, by new medical image technologies, and by improving tools and
techniques for the detection, prevention and treatment of diseases. The
BIBE Symposium provides a common platform for the cross fertilization of
ideas, and to help shape knowledge and scientific achievements by bridging
these two very important and complementary disciplines into an interactive
and attractive forum. Keeping this objective in mind, BIBE solicits
original contributions in the following non exclusive lists of areas.
IEEE BIBE 2007 welcomes submissions in all areas of bioinformatics,
bioengineering, computational biology, medical physics, radiation
oncology, image processing, scientific computing, statistical analysis,
computational intelligence, data mining and knowledge discovery.
Submissions of theoretical and application papers relating to biological
science, medical science, pharmaceutical science, agricultural science,
human health, medical images, cancer diagnosis and therapy, proteomics,
protein structure and function, sequence analysis, gene expressions and
regulations, system biology, genetics and genomics are all welcomed.

All accepted papers will be published by IEEE and indexed in EI, and
further considered for journal special issues dedicated to IEEE BIBE 2007
such as IJBB, Springer's LNCS Transaction on Computational System Biology,
IJBRA, IJDMB, and JCIB.
IEEE BIBE Best Paper Awards will be conferred to the authors of (1)
the best research papers (2) the best application papers and (3) the best
student papers. Foundational and original results will be considered for
the best research paper awards; application-oriented submissions will be
considered for the best application paper awards and papers first authored
by students (graduate or undergraduate full-time students) will be
considered for the best student paper awards.
IEEE BIBE 2007 will offer a limited number of travel fellowships. Those
awards are based on the quality of papers only (no separate application).
