Dear Dr. Ruokonen,

Program and Organizing Committees have honor to announce
the traditional biennial event - The Fourth International
Conference on Bioinformatics of Genome Regulation and
Structure (BGRS'2004) - to be held on
July 25-30, 2004, in Akademgorodok, Novosibirsk, Russia.
http://www.bionet.nsc.ru/meeting/bgrs2004/

BGRS'2004 is a multidisciplinary conference, and we are
pleased to invite scientists with an interest in
bioinformatics, mathematical, theoretical, or computational
biology to attend the meeting.

BGRS'2004 topics of interest include:

- COMPUTATIONAL STRUCTURAL AND FUNCTIONAL GENOMICS
Large-scale genome analysis and comparison; genome
functional annotation, gene finding and prediction; genome
knowledge bases and ontologies

- COMPUTATIONAL STRUCTURAL AND FUNCTIONAL PROTEOMICS
RNA and protein structure and function analysis,
classification of folds and structural motifs in proteins;
proteome analysis

- COMPUTATIONAL SYSTEM BIOLOGY
Gene networks, regulatory networks, signal transduction
pathways, metabolic and gene expression pathways
virtual cell; systems biology and biotechnology, epigenetics;

- COMPUTATIONAL EVOLUTIONARY BIOLOGY
Genetic variation (SNPs, haplotypes); genome rearrangements;
genome polymorphism; molecular evolution

- METHODS TO ANALYZE AND SIMULATE BIOMOLECULAR SYSTEMS
AND PROCESSES
gene expression array; data warehousing, Knowledge Discovery,
Data Mining, and machine learning in genomics and proteomics;
high performance computing; database integration

- BIOINFORMATICS AND EDUCATION

The BGRS'2004 program will be composed of plenary lectures,
oral reports, poster sessions, computer and software demonstrations,
round tables discussions, tutorials including tutorial on supercomputer applications and workshop on stem cell research.

International Program Committee is co-chaired by
Prof Nikolay Kolchanov (Institute of Cytology and Genetics,
Novosibirsk, Russia) and
Prof Ralf Hofestaedt (University of Bielefeld, Germany).
Local Organizing Committee is chaired by Prof Dagmara Furman
(Institute of Cytology and Genetics, Novosibirsk, Russia).

IMPORTANT DATES:
March 30, 2004: Four-page abstracts due
May 01, 2004: Acceptance/rejection notifications
