Computational Structural Bioinformatics (CSBW 2016)

December 15-18,   2016

Shenzhen,  China

Theme

This year, the Computational Structural Bioinformatics Workshop will be held in conjunction with IEEE BIBM 2016. The rapid accumulation of macromolecular structures presents a unique set of challenges and opportunities in the analysis, comparison, modeling, and prediction of macromolecular structures and interactions. This workshop aims to bring together researchers with expertise in bioinformatics, computational biology, structural biology, data mining, optimization and high  performance computing to discuss new results, techniques, and research problems in computational structural bioinformatics.

CSBW invites high quality original papers and posters on developments in computational problems relating to molecular structure. Authors of accepted papers will be provided approximately 15-20 minutes to provide an oral summary of their work, with time for questions. Please refer to the website below for details on format and submission. At least one author of an accepted paper is required to register for the workshop to present the paper. Registration to CSBW is complementary with registration to IEEE BIBM 2016.

Possible topics include, but are not limited to:

• Structure representations
• Structure prediction and refinement
• Structure comparison and alignment
• Molecular interaction, docking, and simulation
• Coarse-grained modeling
• Mining structural data
• Structural genomics
• Applications of high performance computing to structural problems
• Applications of graph theory and optimization to structural problems
•  Structure-based drug design
• Biomolecular graphics

Paper Submission

All accepted papers will appear in proceedings published by IEEE digital libraries.

Selected papers may be offered to submit an extended version to a special journal issue, subject to final agreement currently explored with some journals. Journals used in previous years included the International Journal of Data Mining and Bioinformatics (2007), BMC Structural Biology (2009, 2010, 2012, 2013), Journal of Computational Biology (2015) and the Journal of Bioinformatics and Computational Biology (2011, 2012).
