SCOPE
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:

Biomarker discovery Biomedical databases and data integration
Biomedical text mining and ontologies
Biomolecular imaging
Comparative genomics
Computational genetic epidemiology
Computational proteomics
Data mining and visualization
Gene expression analysis
Genome analysis
Population genetics High-performance bio-computing
Metagenomics
Molecular evolution
Molecular modeling and simulation
Next-generation sequencing data analysis
Pattern discovery and classification
Software tools and applications
Structural biology
Systems biology
AI and machine learning methods in Bioinformatics and Medical Information
Big Data Analytics in Biology and Medicine

PAPER SUBMISSION
Please submit extended abstracts (up to 12 pages in Springer LNCS format) via the online
submission system (https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=isbra2018). Submission
implies willingness of at least one author to register and present at the symposium. The
authors should choose one of the following tracks:

Track 1: Submit up to 12 pages in LNCS format for (i) publication of the extended abstract
in the Springer LNBI proceedings and (ii) invitation to submit a 30-50%-extended version
to ISBRA’18 special issues of IEEE/ACM Transactions on Computational Biology and
Bioinformatics, Journal of Computational Biology, Tsinghua Science and Technology, or
International Journal of Bioinformatics Research and Applications.

Track 2: Submit up to 12 pages in LNCS format for (i) publication of an abridged two-page
abstract in the Springer LNBI proceedings and (ii) invitation to submit a full-length paper to
ISBRA’18 special issues of BMC Bioinformatics or BMC Genomics.
