abstract: The Third IAPR sponsored conference on Pattern Recognition in Bioinformatics (PRIB 2008) will provide you with an excellent opportunity to present your latest research in pattern recognition and computational intelligence based techniques applied to problems in bioinformatics and computational biology. It will provide invaluable opportunities for academia, scientists and industry professionals to interact with each other and share experiences. PRIB 2008 is being organised jointly by Monash University, Australia and IAPR (International Association for Pattern Recognition) Bioinformatics Technical Committee (TC-20). IAPR is well known as an association of non-profit, scientific or professional organizations (being national, multi-national, or international in scope).

abstract: The Program Committee would like to invite you to participate in the Biotechnology and Bioinformatics Symposium (BIOT-2008) on October 17-18 in Arlington, Texas. BIOT-2008 is the fifth in a series of successful symposia held yearly. Starting from the first symposium in 2004, BIOT has attracted participants from all over the United States, Canada and outside North America.

Research and development in biotechnology requires the collaboration of scientists and engineers in the fields of biology, chemistry, computer science, chemical engineering, and electrical engineering. This symposium brings together scientists, engineers and scholars from relevant fields with practitioners from industry in order to help each group to understand progress made in the area as a whole.

abstract: To tackle these illnesses, the cooperation of modelers, mathematicians, statisticians, computer scientists, and others, and of researchers from the medical community is absolutely essential. Modeling is important because it gives important insight into the method of treatment. In the case of HIV/AIDS, for example, mathematical modeling indicated that a combination of both protease inhibitors and reverse transcriptase inhibitors would be far more effective than any one of these two drugs. The purpose of this conference is to bring all the people working in the area of epidemiology under one roof and encourage mutual interaction.

abstract: The 66th Annual Pittsburgh Diffraction Conference is a three day event featuring lecture and poster presentations covering a wide range of subject matter of interest to researchers in chemistry, physics and structural biology.

abstract: The purpose of the workshop is to bring together researchers working in the main areas of Complex Systems, Artificial Intelligence, Intelligent Systems, Medical Applications and Biomedical Computing for presenting their recent results, exchanging ideas, and cooperating in a friendly framework.

abstract: Welcome to the sixth annual Rocky Mountain Bioinformatics Conference, a meeting of the International Society for Computational Biology (ISCB). The organizers hope that you enjoy the program, and find the conference a productive opportunity to meet researchers, students and industrial users of bioinformatics technology. We think we have the best program yet, offering a remarkable cross-section of bioinformatics research.

The Rocky series began six years ago as a regional conference, and has grown into an international program with a spotlight on regional development in the computational biosciences. The presenters of the Rocky conference are scientists representing a broad spectrum of universities, industrial enterprises, government laboratories, and medical libraries from around the world. The meeting is a chance to get to know your colleagues near and far, seek collaborative opportunities, and find synergies that can drive our field forward.

abstract: Predicting physiological behaviour from experimental data combined with environmental influences is a compelling, but unfulfilled, goal of post-genomic biology. This undeniably ambitious goal is the aim of the Physiome Project and its subset the Cardiome Project which is an international effort to build a biophysically based multi-scale mathematical model of the heart. To achieve this goal requires further development of the current generation of advanced cardiac models which span an already diverse set of mathematical representations from stochastic sub-cellular regulation models to whole organ based sets of coupled partial differential equations. The focus of this programme will be on the development and application of the mathematical techniques which underpin the ongoing extension of this approach.
