Call for Tutorial Proposals
The Program Committees of 2010 IEEE International Conference on Bioinformatics and
Biomedicine (IEEE BIBM 2010) invite scientists and professionals working in the fields of
computational biology, bioinformatics, computational system biology, and biomedicine to
submit proposals for high quality tutorials. The committees particularly welcome submissions in
new emerging areas (e.g., host-pathogen interactions, noncoding RNAs, protein design,
structural bioinformatics of large assemblies, computational synthetic biology). Topics include,
but not limited to (ordered alphabetically):
•
Biological Databases, Data Mining, and Visualization
•
Biological Sequence Analysis, Functional Genomics and Comparative Genomics
•
Computational Biology of Host-Pathogen Interactions
•
Computational Synthetic Biology
•

•
Computational and Systems Neuroscience
•
Epidemiology
•
Epigenomics
•
Gene Regulation and Transcriptomics
•
High-Throughput Technologies and Applications
•
Integrative Methods in Bioinformatics
•
Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligent with Application in Bioinformatics
•

Tutorial Proposals
Tutorial submissions should be received by Aug 25, 2010. Proposals should contain the
following information:
•
•
•
•
•
Title
Instructors (detailed contact information and biographical data)
Objectives and motivation of the tutorial
Intended audience
Tutorial outline
Proposals should be completed using the MS Word or PDF templates provided. Each tutorial
presentation regardless of the number of instructors will be offered an honorarium of US$500 for
a half-day tutorial (3-4 hours) or US $1000 for a full-day tutorial (7-8 hours). Alternatively, the
conference registration fee will be waived for one instructor (half-day tutorial) or for two
instructors (full-day tutorial). At most four tutorials will be selected.
