[BiO BB] Submission deadline extended for BIOT-04 to June 28th

[J. Kalita]

Hello everyone,

We had some problems with our server due to power outages in Colorado and
some people had problems submitting abstracts and papers. Therefore, we
are extending the submission deadline till next Monday, June 28th. The
symposium is going to be held in Colorado Springs, Colorado on September
24th, 2004.

Here is the call again.

You are invited to participate in the 2004 First Biotechnology and
Bioinformatics Symposium: A Community and Academic Forum (BIOT-04).

The symposium's objective is to showcase research and development
activities in:
Bioinformatics and Computational Biology, and
Biotechnology
and to promote future interdisciplinary activity and research in these
areas. Abstracts and papers are solicited in these two areas, broadly
interpreted. Efforts that attempt to solve biology-based problems using
computational, mathematical, engineering and other means are suitable. In
addition, abstracts and papers dealing with community impacts of
Bioinformatics, Computational Biology and Biotechnology are  appropriate.
Thus, abstracts and papers in areas such as technology transfer, legal,
business, and social impact issues are also invited.

BIOT-04 will accept abstracts and papers  for either podium presentation
or poster presentation. All submissions of abstracts and papers, whether
for podium or poster presentation, will be reviewed. A printed preceedings
will be published containing all  accepted abstracts and papers.

At least one author must be registered in BIOT-04 for an abstract or a
paper to be included in the proceedings. The symposium will be held on
September 24, 2004 in Colorado Springs. It is expected that the 2004
symposium is the first of a series of such symposia.
