General Information

The 9th International Conference on Systems Biology (ISB 2015), organized by Computational Systems Biology Society of ORSC will be held in Luoyang, China, August 21-24, 2015. The conference is supported and sponsored by Academy of Mathematics and Systems Sciences of CAS (AMSS), Shanghai Institutes for Biological Sciences of CAS (SIBS), Henan University of Science and Technology, National Natural Science Foundation of China (NSFC), Functional Genome Informaics and Systems Biology Society of CSCB, Systems Biology Technical Committee of IEEE SMC Society.

Systems Biology and Bioinformatics have become intensive research topics in the recent past decade and attracted great many leading scientists working in Biology, Physics, Mathematics and Computer Science. Optimization, Statistics, and many other mathematical methods have been widely used in the field.

Following the successful ISB conferences series from 2007, the purpose of ISB 2015 is to extend the international forum for scientists, researchers, educators, and practitioners to exchange ideas and approaches, to present research findings and state-of-the-art solutions in this interdisciplinary field, including mathematical methods and its applications in biosciences and researches on various aspects of Systems Biology, such as integration of genome-wide microarray, proteomic, and metabolomic data, inference and comparison of biological networks, and model testing through design of experiments.

Language

The working language of the conference will be English.

Call for Papers

The purpose of ISB 2015 is to provide an international forum for scientists, researchers to exchange ideas and approaches, including theoretical methodology development and its applications in biosciences and researches on various aspects of Computational Systems Biology. Themes of the ISB 2015 will be interdisciplinary by its nature and focus on bridging opportunities between mathematical methods and Systems Biology studies. We are particularly interested in submissions that report on theoretical, experimental and applied research motivated by systems biology problems. Typical, but not exclusive, topics of interest are:

Gene Regulatory Networks

Protein Interaction Networks

Metabolic Networks

Signaling Networks

Comparative Genomics

Functional Genomics

Metagenomics

Genome-Wide Association Study

Promoter Analysis and Discovery

Biomarker Identification and Drug Discovery

Evolution and Phylogenetics

Non-coding RNAs

Proteomics

Protein Structures and Functions

Microbial Community Analysis

Qualitative Analysis of Biological Systems

Quantitative Models of Cellular and Multi-Cellular Systems

Designing and Modeling Synthetic Biological Systems

Nonlinear Dynamics and Analysis of Biological Systems

Designing Synthetic Biological Circuits

High Performance Computing for Biological Data Analysis

Data Mining and Machine Learning for Biological Data

Information Theory and Statistical Analysis

Systems Biology of Cancer and Metastasis

Brain Systems Biology

Systems Neuro-Informatics

Systems Biology of Development

Next Generation Sequencing for Personal Genomics, Cancer Genomics and Metagenomics

Rare and common variants of human genome

Epigenomics, non-coding RNAs, and DNA methylation analyses

Genome-Phenome-Envirome Network Analysis

Microarray analysis and functional genomics for disease

Biomarkers, Drug Discovery and Pharmacogenomics

Biomedical Text/Data Mining and Visualization

Network Biology/Medicine and Pathway/Regulation Analysis

Biomedical Intelligence, Clinical Informatics, and Health Record

Semantic Biology/Medicine and Biomedical Ontologies.

All submissions will be rigorously peer reviewed and evaluated on the quality, originality, soundness, and significance of their contributions. Original research papers are solicited in all aspects of Bioinformatics, Systems Biology, Synthetic Biology and Computational Biology, including but not limited to the above topics.

Originally, ISB 2015 was organized as the post-conference workshop of ICSB 2015 which has been cancelled in April 24, 2015, due to financial crisis. Since it is too late to negotiate with publishers, ISB 2015 will NOT publish proceedings.
