International Conference on Bioinformatics, Computational Biology and Biomedical Engineering aims to bring together leading academic scientists, researchers and scholars to exchange and share their experiences and research results about all aspects of Bioinformatics, Computational Biology and Biomedical Engineering, and discuss the practical challenges encountered and the solutions adopted. ICBCBBE 2012 has teamed up with the International Journal of Medical and Biological Sciences for publishing a Special Journal Issue on Advances in Bioinformatics, Computational Biology and Biomedical Engineering. All submitted papers will have opportunities for consideration for this Special Journal Issue. The selection will be carried out during the review process as well as at the conference presentation stage. Submitted papers must not be under consideration by any other journal or publication. The final decision will be made based on peer review reports by the guest editors and the Editor-in-Chief jointly.
