> =================================================================
>
> The Program Committees of 2010 IEEE International Conference on  
> Bioinformatics and Biomedicine (IEEE BIBM 2010) invite proposals for  
> Workshops.  The Workshops will be held within the Conference, 18-21  
> Dec 2010, Hong Kong, China.
>
> The workshop organizers will be responsible for advertising the  
> workshop, forming the program committees, reviewing and selecting  
> the papers, and guaranteeing a high quality worthy of the prestige  
> and range of the Conference.  All papers accepted for workshops will  
> be included in the Workshop Proceedings published by the IEEE  
> Computer Society Press and will be available at the workshops.
>
> The workshop organizers will also have the discretion of editing  
> selected papers (after their expansion and revision) into books or  
> special journal issues.  Workshops should cover at least a single  
> session (6 regular papers). The workshop organizers should ensure  
> registration and presence of   authors of accepted papers.
>
> Workshop Topics
>
> Each workshop subject will focus on new research challenges and  
> initiatives in Bioinformatics and Biomedicine.  The workshops should  
> provide an informal and vibrant forum for researchers and industry  
> practitioners to share their research results and practical  
> development experiences in these two fields.  Workshop topics may be  
> narrow, e.g., “reverse-engineering” of  gene regulatory networks  
> from experimental data, computational approaches to drug discovery,  
> mathematical modeling of signaling pathways, analysis of the next- 
> generation sequencing data, oscillations and synchronization of  
> biological rhythms; or wide, e.g., computational proteomics, in- 
> silico diagnosis and prognosis, data mining and machine learning  
> algorithms for biomedical applications, application of network  
> research to biology etc.  Prospective workshop organizers are  
> encouraged to contact workshop chairs.
