Dear SysMod community,
I would like to share an event that you may be interested in. Details are below.
Best regards,

The 16th International Conference on Data and Text Mining in Biomedical Informatics (DTMBio)
December 19-22, 2022 Hilton Waikoloa Village, Hawaii, USA

The DTMBIO 2022 organizers are pleased to announce that the 16th DTMBIO will be held. The main focus of DTMBIO is on biomedical and health informatics. DTMBIO delegates will bring forth interesting applications of up-to-date informatics in the context of biomedical research. This year, we are particularly interested in techniques and applications of Big Data Analytics to biomedical and clinical research problems.
Biological researchers face the current challenge of making effective use of the enormous amount of electronic biomedical data in order to better understand and explain complex biological systems. The biomedical data repositories include data in a wide variety of forms, including bibliographic information from electronic medical journals, gene expression data from microarray experiments, protein identification and quantification data from proteomics experiments, genomic sequences gathered by massively parallel sequencing, and patient healthcare records. The ability to automatically and effectively extract, integrate, understand and make use of information embedded in such heterogeneous – structured and unstructured – data remains a challenging task.

We invite the submission of papers that propose ways to address the variety of aspects involved in meeting this challenge.

Topic of Interest
The relevant topics include the following (but not limited to):
∙ Biomedical and clinical text mining applications
∙ Big bio- or clinical- data analytics
∙ Integration of structured and unstructured resources for biomedical applications
∙ Information extraction from biomedical and clinical corpora (published literature, grey literature, EHRs, clinical trials, etc.)
∙ Information retrieval from large biomedical data collections
∙ Gene sequence annotation
∙ Protein/RNA structure prediction
∙ Medical ontologies and text mining
∙ Entity or Concept recognition in text with ontologies
∙ Sequence and structural motifs
∙ Modeling of biochemical pathways and biological networks
∙ Image mining in medical and healthcare informatics
∙ Data and text mining solutions in biomedical informatics, for applications such as drug development, system biology, biomedical working processes
∙ Information integration for data and text mining
∙ Mining multi-relational data
∙ Proposal and assessment of novel text mining evaluation strategies
∙ Evaluation methods of biomedical applications, shared tasks
∙ Genomic/transcriptomic sequence data analysis
∙ Human microbiome analysis


Submission Guidelines
Authors are invited to submit original, unpublished research papers that are not being considered for publication in any other forum. Manuscripts should be submitted electronically, in PDF format and formatted using the BMC Bioinformatics templates (available in https://bmcbioinformatics.biomedcentral.com/submission-guidelines/preparing-your-manuscript).

Full papers:
Submissions must describe substantial, original, completed and unpublished work. Full papers may consist of up to eight pages. Full papers will be presented at the workshop.

Short papers:
The DTMBIO 2022 solicits short papers as well. Short paper submissions must describe original and unpublished work. Short papers will be presented at the conference and will be given four pages in the proceedings.

Posters:
We solicit quality posters that describe previously published or unpublished work. Posters will be presented at the workshop. In the last DTMBIO, we had a session for a lightning talk (~5 min) for each poster.

All papers (in PDF format) should be submitted to:
https://easychair.org/cfp/DTMBIO2022

Selected full papers (~ 8 papers) will be invited for a special issue of BMC Bioinformatics, a flagship journal of the biomedical informatics field.

Important Dates (subject to change)
Call for Paper (Start): September 15, 2022
Paper Submission Due: October 23, 2022

Notification of Acceptance: November 13, 2021

Conference: December 19-22, 2022

Invitation to BMC Bioinformatics: January, 2023

Location
69-425 Waikoloa Beach Drive, Hilton Waikoloa Village, Waikoloa, Hawaii, 96738-5710, USA
