**********************************************************************************<br><br>
The 4th International Conference on Algorithms for Computational Biology (AlCoB 2017) invites researchers to submit poster presentations. AlCoB 2017 will be held in Aveiro (Portugal) on June 5-7, 2017. SeeĀ <br><br>
http://grammars.grlmc.com/AlCoB2017/<br><br>
Poster presentations are intended to enhance informal interactions with conference participants, at the same time allowing for in-depth discussion.<br><br>
TOPICS<br><br>
Presentations displaying novel work in progress on algorithms in computational biology are encouraged on the following topics:<br><br>
- assembling sequence reads into a complete genome,<br>
- identifying gene structures in the genome,<br>
- recognizing regulatory motifs,<br>
- aligning nucleotides and comparing genomes,<br>
- reconstructing regulatory networks of genes, and<br>
- inferring the evolutionary phylogeny of species.<br><br>
Posters do not need to show final research results. Work that might lead to new interesting developments is welcome.<br><br>
KEY DATES<br><br>
Poster submission deadline: April 28, 2017<br>
Notification of poster acceptance or rejection: May 5, 2017<br><br>
SUBMISSION<br><br>
Please submit a .pdf abstract through:<br><br>
https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=alcob2017<br><br>
It should contain the title, author(s) and affiliation, and should not exceed 500 words.<br><br>
PRESENTATION<br><br>
Posters will be allocated 10 minutes each in the programme for oral presentation. Moreover, they will remain hanging out during the whole conference for discussion.<br><br>
PUBLICATION<br><br>
Posters will not appear in the LNCS/LNBI proceedings volume of AlCoB 2017. However, they will be eligible for submission to the post-conference journal special issue in the Journal of Computational Biology (2015 JCR impact factor: 1.537).<br><br>
REGISTRATION<br><br>
At least one author of each accepted poster must register to the conference by May 22, 2017. The registration fare is reduced: 260 Euro. It gives the same rights all other conference participants have (attendance, copy of the proceedings volume, lunches...). Contributors of regular papers who in addition get a poster accepted must register for the latter independently.</body></html>
