IEEE 7th BIBE hosts two Special Workshops, The 4th Annual University of
Massachusetts Bioinformatics Conference and the Research in Midwest and the
Southern Illinois University Conference. All workshop - joint conference papers
will be reviewed and ranked by at least 3 professors in the IEEE 7th BIBE
program committee and accepted special workshop - joint conference papers will
be included in the IEEE proceeding book, indexed EI, INSPEC, DBLP, IEEE Xplore
and Library of Congress, and will be further considered for journal issues
dedicated for IEEE 7th BIBE. The IEEE 7th BIBE Program Committee fully decides
the acceptance of papers into the special journal issues, authorized by the
journals.
IEEE BIBE Best Paper Awards will be conferred to the authors of (1) the best
research papers (2) the best
application papers and (3) the best student papers. Foundational and original
results will be considered
for the best research paper awards; application-oriented submissions will be
considered for the best
application paper awards and papers first authored by students (graduate or
undergraduate full-time
students) will be considered for the best student paper awards.

IEEE BIBE 2007 will offer a limited number of travel fellowships. Those awards
are based on the quality of
papers only (no separate application).
Online Submission Deadline: July 10, 2007
Early Registration: July 31, 2007: $280/$330 (Student IEEE/Non-IEEE member),
$495/$595 (IEEE/Non-IEEE

Bioinformatics and Bioengineering are complementary disciplines that hold great
promise for the
advancement of research and development in complex medical and biological
systems, agriculture,
environment, public health, drug design, and so on. Research and development in
these two areas are
impacting the science and technology of fields such as medicine, food
production, forensics, etc. by
advancing fundamental concepts in molecular biology and in medicine, by helping
us understand living
organisms at multiple levels, by developing innovative implants and
prosthetics, by new medical image
technologies, and by improving tools and techniques for the detection,
prevention and treatment of
diseases. The BIBE Symposium provides a common platform for the cross
fertilization of ideas, and to help
shape knowledge and scientific achievements by bridging these two very
important and complementary
disciplines into an interactive and attractive forum. Keeping this objective in
mind, BIBE solicits
original contributions in the following non exclusive lists of areas.
IEEE BIBE 2007 welcomes submissions in all areas of bioinformatics,
bioengineering, computational biology,
medical physics, radiation oncology, image processing, scientific computing,
statistical analysis,
computational intelligence, data mining and knowledge discovery. Submissions of
theoretical and
application papers relating to biological science, medical science,
pharmaceutical science, agricultural
science, human health, medical images, cancer diagnosis and therapy,
proteomics, protein structure and
function, sequence analysis, gene expressions and regulations, system biology,
genetics and genomics are
all welcomed.
