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
If you intend to attend the BGRS'2004, please register at the official site of the Conference http://www.bionet.nsc.ru/meeting/bgrs2004/.
