--------------MASAMB 2008: Call for Submissions-----------------
The annual Mathematical and Statistical Aspects of Molecular Biology
(MASAMB) meeting will take place in Glasgow on March 27-28, 2008.
See http://www.dcs.gla.ac.uk/masamb/ for details.
With participants from mathematics, statistics, computer science,
bioinformatics, biology and related fields, the MASAMB meetings provide
an intimate setting for exchange of ideas in methodological and applied
research. Research students and scientists newly entering the field of
genomic research are particularly welcome.
Likely topics for sessions this year are phylogenetics and comparative
genomics, microarrays and functional genomics, biological networks and
systems biology. We also welcome contributions from any other areas
where mathematical and statistical techniques are being applied to
important problems in molecular and cell biology.
To be considered for a talk or poster authors should submit a one page
abstract describing their research. This abstract will be used to select
presentations and should provide an overview of the research objectives,
methods and results.
Important dates are:
Registration opens: December 3rd 2007
Abstract submission: January 18th 2008
Author notification: February 1st 2008
Registration ends: February 29th 2008
Conference: March 27th-28th 2008
Further details, along with instructions for abstract submission and
registration, are provided on the above conference website.
