Scope:

The purpose of the International Conference on Bioinformatics Models,
Methods and Algorithms is to bring together researchers and
practitioners interested in the application of computational systems,
algorithmic concepts and information technologies to address
challenging problems in Biomedical research with a particular focus on
the emerging problems in Bioinformatics and computational
biology. There is a tremendous need to explore how mathematical,
statistical and computational models can be used to better understand
biological processes and systems, while developing new methodologies
and tools to analysis the massive currently-available biological
data. Areas of interest to this community include systems biology,
sequence analysis, biostatistics, image analysis, network and graph
models, scientific data management and data mining, machine learning,
pattern recognition, computational evolutionary biology, computational
genomics and proteomics, and related areas.

BIOINFORMATICS is part of BIOSTEC, the 10th International Joint
Conference on Biomedical Engineering Systems and Technologies.

Registration to BIOINFORMATICS allows free access to all other BIOSTEC
conferences.
