SUBMISSIONS - Call for Papers
RECOMB 2007 Call for Papers is Now Closed RECOMB 2007 – April 21-25, 2007 The Eleventh Annual International Conference on Research
in Computational Molecular Biology (RECOMB 2007) will be held at the Oakland
Marriott City Center, Oakland, CA USA. RECOMB 2007 will provide a general
forum for disseminating the latest research in bioinformatics and computational
biology. It is a multidisciplinary conference that brings together academic
and industrial scientists from molecular biology, medicine, computer science,
mathematics and statistics. Papers reporting on original research (both theoretical
and experimental) in all areas of computational molecular biology are
sought. Typical but not exclusive topics of interest include:
Papers submitted for review should represent original, previously unpublished work. At the time the extended abstract is submitted to RECOMB, and for the entire review period, the paper (or essentially the same paper) should not be under review by any other conference with published proceedings or by a scientific journal. If accepted for RECOMB 2007, a paper may be submitted for journal publication after the authors have received the acceptance notice. Publication The program committee will rigorously review submitted abstracts, and 30-40 will be accepted for presentation in the conference. Accepted abstracts will be published as a proceedings volume in the series of "Lecture Notes in Bioinformatics" from Springer-Verlag, that will be available at the conference. A selection of accepted papers will be invited to submit full journal versions to a special issue of the Journal of Computational Biology devoted to RECOMB 2007. Manuscript Preparation A manuscript should start with a succinct statement of the problem, the results achieved, their significance and a comparison with previous work. This material should be understandable to non-specialists. A technical exposition directed to the specialist should follow. The length, excluding cover page and bibliography, should not exceed 10 pages. The manuscript should be easy to read, using at least 11 point font size on U.S. standard 8 1/2 by 11 inch paper with no less than one inch margin all around. If authors believe that more details are absolutely necessary to substantiate the claims of the paper, they may include a clearly marked appendix, which might be read, at the discretion of the reviewers. An e-mail address for the contact author should be included. Manuscripts that deviate significantly from these guidelines risk rejection without consideration of their merits. Key Dates July 1, 2006: First day for manuscript submission September 30, 2006, at 23:59 GMT: Paper submission deadline December 10, 2006: Notification of acceptance/rejection February 1, 2007: Deadline for reception of files of final papers Notification The program committee will referee the conference submissions. Authors will be notified of acceptance or rejection by e-mail on or before December 10, 2006. We request the author of each accepted paper its LaTeX file(s) or MS WORD file in the special format for Lecture Notes in Bioinformatics by February 1, 2007. An author of each accepted paper is expected to attend the conference and present the paper; otherwise alternative arrangements should be made to have the paper presented. |
