Informatics - Call for contributions

SYMPOSIUM ON INFORMATION VISUALIZATION IN BIOMEDICAL INFORMATICS
http://www.graphicslink.co.uk/IV07/IVbm.htm
ETH, Zurich, Switzerland
July 4, 2007

Paper deadline: 15 February, 2007

Associated and co-located with the 11th International Conference on
Information Visualization 2007 (IV07)
http://www.graphicslink.co.uk/IV07/
ETH, Zurich, Switzerland
July 4 - 6, 2007

CALL FOR PARTICIPATION

We are soliciting original papers in the area of information
visualization applied to biomedical and biomolecular data, including
genomic and proteomic data. One of the great challenges is the
presentation of and interaction with large and complex data sets. The
need for integrated methods and creative strategies has provided an
opportunity for novel solutions. We encourage the submission of new
techniques, old techniques applied in novel ways, new methods,
interesting applications and in-depth surveys.

Examples of application topics include, but are not limited to:
    - Microarray data, design and analysis
    - Nucleotide and protein sequence alignment
    - Sequence analysis, comparison and alignment networks
    - Evolutionary phylogenetic trees
    - Gene expression and gene discovery
    - Signaling pathways, biochemical networks
    - Biochemical and cellular simulations and models
    - Mass spectrometry data analysis
Examples of visualization topics include:
    - Interactions with large data sets
    - Handling labels in high-dimensional visualizations
    - Linking literature and semantics in pathway visualizations
    - Systems-level analysis of experimental data
    - Overview and detail presentation of predictive or uncertain data
    - Identification of correlated and anomalous relationships in
disparate data sets

SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS

Please, prepare a PDF version of your full paper for submission
(maximum 12 pages) according to the conference guidelines found at:
http://www.graphicslink.co.uk/IV07/INSTRUCTION.htm.

Potential authors are invited to submit a PDF of their submission
through an online submission system. Accepted papers will appear
in the proceedings, which will be published by the IEEE Computer Society.
