Call for papers
CMSB 2011
9th Int. Conference on Computational Methods in Systems Biology
in cooperation with the ACM SIG Bioinformatics
September 21-23 2011
Institut Henri Poincaré
Paris, France
http://contraintes.inria.fr/CMSB11/
================================================================
CMSB 2011 solicits original research articles on the analysis of
biological systems, networks, and data. The conference brings together
computer scientists, biologists, mathematicians, engineers, and
physicists interested in a system-level understanding of biological
processes.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: original paradigms
for modelling biological processes, original models together with
their application domains; frameworks and techniques for verifying,
validating, analyzing, and simulating biological systems;
high-performance computational systems biology and parallel
implementations (this year the HiBi workshop is merged into CMSB);
inference from high-throughput experimental data; model integration
from biological databases; model reduction methods; multi-scale
models; control of biological systems. Contributions on modelling and
analysis of relevant biological case studies are especially
encouraged.

BEST PAPER AWARDS
The Program Committee of CMSB 2011 will give two best paper awards:
one Best Student Paper Award and one NVIDIA Best Paper Award.
The Best Student Paper Award recipient is given public recognition and
receives an award of 500 US$ from the IEEE Technical Committee on
Simulation (TCSIM). For a paper to qualify for the Best Student Paper
award, a student must be the lead author, the submission must be done
in the student paper category and the student must present the paper
at the conference.
The NVIDIA Best Paper Award recipient is given public recognition and
receives one high end Tesla GPU equipment of a value of 3,999 US$
donated by NVIDIA. Any paper on any topic of CMSB can qualify for
this award provided the submission indicates the NVIDIA Best Paper
Award category.
