Topics of Interest

The focus of the symposium is on computational methods for the modeling, analysis and exploration of all aspects of life sciences, ranging from effects on the molecular level to complex interactions networks.

Of prime importance for this truly interdisciplinary event will be the integration of the three disciplines Computer Science, Biology, and Chemistry. The program will consist of contributed presentations regarding applicational aspects as well as new theoretical developments.

Submissions will be reviewed by representatives of all fields to make sure that not only the algorithmic aspects are suited for publication but the application to life science is promising as well.

Submissions are sought in (but not limited to) the following areas:

 Molecular data analysis
 Systems biology
 Analysis of heterogenous information sources
 Human Computer Interaction in Information Mining
 Computational proteomics
 Integrative data analysis
 Statistical data analysis
 Data mining
 Molecular simulation
 Biological networks / Metabolism
 Molecular informatics
 Data pipelining
 Data visualization
 Large scale chemical computation
 Data integration/semantics
 Grid/web services
 Computer architectures in life sciences
 Computational Neuroscience
