> Scope:
>
> ====Colorful analogies to catastrophic events, including floods,
>
> avalanches, tidal waves, and even explosions, have often been used
>
> to describe the overwhelming nature of high-throughput, biological
>
> data. The deluge of data shows no sign of abating, particularly as
>
> new technologies appear (protein chips) and established technologies
>
> are improved (mass spectrometers, DNA micro-arrays) or re-
>
> implemented on industrial scales. Finding new ways to integrate,
>
> manage, visualize, and interpret data from diverse sources is one of
>
> the grand challenges for modern bioinformatics, which merges
>
> information technology, computer science, statistics, applied
>
> mathematics, and biology. Topics of interest to this workshop
>
> include, but are not limited to:
>
>
>
> * Protein-protein interactions
>
> * mRNA and protein expression
>
> * Functional annotation of genes and proteins
>
> * Ontological classifications
>
> * Signaling and regulatory pathways
>
> * Biology-specific knowledge representation
>
> * Biological data preparation and cleansing
>
> * High-throughput experimental data monitoring and tracking
>
> * Sequence- or structure-based data analysis
>
> * Knowledge curation, annotation, and reporting
>
> * Use of natural language processing techniques and/or artificial
>
> * intelligence techniques to automatically extract multiple
>
> * biological objects such as gene names, protein names, drugs,
>
> organisms, disease, etc., from free-text.
>
> * Information and knowledge extraction such as object-object
>
> interactions (ex: protein interactions, functions, etc.).
>
> * Software systems to support biological research that integrates
>
> multi-format and multi-type data from heterogeneous databases.
>
> * Information visualization techniques for biological networks and
>
> integrated biological systems.
>
> * Application of machine learning in the mining of very large
>
> dimensional data such as microarray and mass-spectrometry data.
>
> * Computational methods that model cellular mechanisms, the protein
>
> machine, pathways, and regulatory networks.
>
> * Algorithms for processing and interpreting large-scale mass-
>
> spectrometry data
>
> * Comparative genomics and genome dynamics (i.e., evolution of whole
>
> genomes, e.g., by translocations, reversals, duplications, etc.)
>
> Modeling of small molecule ligand binding to proteins.
>
> * An informatics technique, strategy, and tool that combine multiple
>
> types of data.
>
> * Investigation of genome, transcriptome, proteome, or metabolome
>
> data, using multiple computational techniques, strategies, and
>
> tools.
>
> * High-performance systems engineering ideas and strategies using
>
> concepts learned from bioinformatics.
>
> * Significant biological discoveries using a consistent suite of
>
> investigative tools.
>
> * Other novel bioinformatics topics in life sciences may also be
>
> considered, as long as the topics contribute to the expansion of a
>
> system-scale understanding of biological processes and/or the
>
> creation of practical informatics solutions for real-world life
>
> science problems.
