The International Symposium on Bioinformatics Research and Applications (ISBRA) 
provides a forum for the exchange of ideas and results among researchers, 
developers, and practitioners working on all aspects of bioinformatics and 
computational biology and their applications. Submissions presenting original 
research are solicited in all areas of bioinformatics and computational 
biology, including the development of experimental or commercial systems. 
Topics of interest include but are not limited to:

  * Biomedical databases and data integration
  * Biomolecular imaging
  * Bio-ontologies
  * Comparative genomics
  * Computational genetic epidemiology
  * Computational proteomics
  * Data mining and visualization
  * Gene expression analysis
  * Genome analysis
  * High-performance bio-computing
  * High-throughput sequencing data analysis
  * Molecular evolution
  * Molecular modeling and simulation
  * Pattern discovery and classification
  * Population genetics
  * Software tools and applications
  * Structural biology
  * Systems biology

Authors are invited to submit electronically short abstracts of up to
4 pages (in Springer LNCS format) by following the instructions at

http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=isbra2012

Accepted short abstracts will be published online and on CD-ROM and selected 
for either oral or poster presentation. As in previous years, authors of 
selected short abstracts will be invited to submit full versions to a 
peer-reviewed supplement to be published after the symposium in BMC 
Bioinformatics.
