BSB Call for Papers

The Brazilian Symposium on Bioinformatics 2008 invites you to submit papers on COMPUTATIONAL BIOLOGY, BIOINFORMATICS and APPLICATIONS.

This multidisciplinary symposium provides a general forum for presentation and discussion of original research on computational biology and bioinformatics.

The main contribution topics can be consulted at the Tracks menu.

Proceedings of BSB 2008 will be published by Springer as Lecture Notes in Bioinformatics and in a CD with ISBN.

Selected papers will be invited to submit an extended version to the periodic Computers in Biology and Medicine, published by Elsevier.
