DATES: July 15-16, 2011
LOCALE: Vienna, Austria (ISMB Satellite Meeting)

We enthusiastically invite you to attend this year's conference on Critical Assessment of Massive Data Analysis (CAMDA). CAMDA was founded in 2000 to provide a forum for the critical assessment of different techniques used in large-scale data analysis in the life-sciences, such as for high-dimensional gene expression profiling. It aims to establish state-of-the-art analysis methods, as well as identify progress and highlight promising directions for future efforts. To this end, CAMDA adopted the approach of a scientific community-wide contest, with everybody analysing the same data sets. Researchers worldwide are invited to take the CAMDA challenge, which has become a prominent fixture (cf. Nature Methods 5, 569). Accepted contributions are presented through talks and posters, and the results and methods of the different analyses are discussed and compared at the conference.
As a special focus this year, we consider the integrated analysis of a particularly rich structured data set that includes gene and miRNA expression, DNA SNPs, copy number variation, and methylation for about 500 matched samples. With the fast ongoing development of novel genome-wide experimental techniques (such as next generation sequencing), an assessment of how we can gain better insight from an integration of heterogeneous large-scale data is particularly topical.
