CALL FOR PAPERS AND POSTERS - 17th BRAZILIAN SYMPOSIUM ON
BIOINFORMATICS (BSB 2024)
The Brazilian Symposium on Bioinformatics (BSB) is an international
conference covering all aspects of Bioinformatics and Computational
and Systems Biology. The initial editions of BSB, in 2002, were called
WOB (Workshop on Bioinformatics) and were indexed by DBLP; since 2005,
WOB was renamed BSB. BSB is organized by the special interest group in
Computational Biology (CE-BioComp) of the Brazilian Computer Society
(SBC).
BSB 2024 would like to attract participation from academic and
industrial researchers, both in the exact sciences (computer science,
mathematics, and statistics) and the life sciences (molecular biology,
biochemistry, genetics, medicine, microbiology, and others) to submit
papers describing original work related to the topics indicated below.
Accepted papers will be orally presented at the conference by one of
the authors. Acceptance will be based on quality, relevance, and
originality. This year, BSB is co-located with SBMF: Brazilian
Symposium on Formal Methods.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR AUTHORS
The submissions should contain original, high quality, not submitted,
or published-elsewhere work. All submissions must be in English.
Authors are required to use the SBC format, whose template is
available in both LaTeX and DOC & ODT formats.
The actual submission must be in PDF format (maximum 20 Mb). LaTex or
Word versions (on which the PDF must be based) will be required later,
for accepted papers, for inclusion in the proceedings. BSB encourages
authors to include their ORCIDs in their papers.
Proceedings containing accepted full and short papers will be
published as a volume in the SBC-OpenLib (SOL), in its Bioinformatics
series. All accepted papers will be open access and will be easily
found by search engines.
CATEGORIES OF CONTRIBUTIONS
BSB 2024 will accept three categories of contributions:
Full papers - up to 12 pages SBC style, oral presentation (15 min).
Short papers - up to 6 pages SBC style, oral presentation (8 min).
Posters - abstract written using the conference template, 1 page,
poster presentation.
For full papers, manuscript length (including all figures, tables, and
references) should not exceed 12 pages. For short papers, manuscript
length (including all figures, tables, and references) should not
exceed 6 pages.
Manuscripts that deviate significantly from these guidelines may risk
rejection without consideration of scientific merit.
Contribution submissions will be done using the JEMS system.
SUBMISSION POLICY
By submitting a contribution to BSB 2024, the authors agree that in
case of acceptance, at least one author has to register to the
conference and present the contribution.
