DEADLINES EXTENDED for 15 days AS PER YOUR REQUESTS CALL FOR PARTICIPATION InCoB2007 brings together scientists working in bioinformatics and computational biology, spanning a wide range of underpinning disciplines including computer science, biology, biotechnology, genomics, proteomics, transcriptomics, mathematics and statistics. Participants can be involved in the following ways: Full Papers Posters Tutorials Special Interest Group (SIG) meetings FULL PAPERS: EXTENDED SUBMISSION DEADLINE: 1 June 2007 15 MAY 2007 ACCEPTANCE: 30 JUNE 2007 InCoB2007 will feature oral presentations shortlisted from full paper submissions for selection in the special conference supplement of the journal BMC Bioinformatics. Other full paper submissions will be considered for the special conference supplement of the journal Biomolecular Frontiers. Full papers are invited in the following areas: Sequence analysis Genome analysis Transcriptome analysis Structural bioinformatics Evolution and phygenetics Computational proteomics Text mining Ontologies and controlled vocabularies Networks, pathways and systems biology Genetic and population analysis Databases and data mining Other emerging areas Original articles, not under consideration for publication elsewhere, must be formatted in the style required by BMC Bioinformatics, as set out in their "Instructions for Authors" and submitted to the InCoB2007 paper submission site. One author of each shortlisted paper will present their research at InCoB2007, as a registered conference attendee.

Details of these charges will be provided from the InCoB2007 paper submission site. In addition, other papers may also be considered for a special conference supplement in the journal Biomolecular Frontiers. More details will be provided at the submission page. Papers that are not shortlisted for oral presentations will be automatically considered for poster presentation. Submission Site POSTERS: EXTENDED SUBMISSION DEADLINE: 15 JUNE 2007 31 MAY 2007 ACCEPTANCE: 30 JUNE 2007 We solicit high-quality research posters in any aspect of bioinformatics and computational biology conveying a scientific result. At least one author of each selected poster must register for InCoB2007. Furthermore, a single registration can cover only only oral presentation and one poster presentation or two poster presentations.
