Life Sciences: Workshop on Data Mining in Bioinformatics

Written by BCI Staff | Jul 30, 2012 2:57:00 PM

The 11th International Workshop on Data Mining in Bioinformatics

Workshop - Beijing, China

BIOKDD 2012 encourages submissions on analyzing a broad range of biological, biochemical, and clinical datasets.
The data of interest include “omic” datasets (genomic, transcriptomic, proteomic, metabolomic, interactomic), biochemical datasets, and clinical datasets (ranging from physiological measurements to free text).
Papers that integrate multiple types of data to extract novel information will also be of great interest to the workshop.
The topics of interest, classified according to data type, include the following:

Genomics/Sequence Analysis:

Analysis of next-generation sequencing data Phylogenetics and comparative genomics Genome-wide association studies and genetic interactions Motif finding; Population genetics, Haplotype analysis

Transcriptomics/Functional Genomics:

Analysis of DNA microarray and RNA-seq data RNAi and microRNA analysis Biomarker discovery; RNA structure prediction

Proteomics:

Computational proteomics
Prediction of protein structure and interactions Identification of drug targets Post-translational regulation of proteins

Metabolomics:

Analysis and comparison of metabolic networks and pathways

Systems Biology/Interactomics:

Analysis of protein interaction networks Genetic regulatory networks, DNA-protein interactions Modeling of biological systems Mining of gene-environment, gene-drug, drug-drug interactions

Clinical and Translational Informatics:

Mining electronic health records
Ontologies
Privacy issues in medical informatics
