BRAZILIAN SYMPOSIUM ON BIOINFORMATICS 2020

BSB 2020 - 23-27 NOVEMBER 2020 - online meeting

Official website of BSB 2020

BSB is organized by the special interest group in computational biology of the Brazilian Computer Society (SBC).

BSB provides a general forum for presentation and discussion of original research on computational biology, bioinformatics, and systems biology.

BSB 2020 would like to attract contributions from academic and industrial researchers, both in the exact sciences (computer science, mathematics and statistics) and in the life sciences (molecular biology, biochemistry, genetics, medicine, microbiology and others).

As in past years, BSB 2020 will accept both full papers (for oral presentation) and short papers. Proceedings containing accepted full and short papers will be published as a volume in the Lecture Notes in Bioinformatics series, from Springer.

Topics include (but are not limited to):

• Machine Learning applications in Bioinformatics
• Molecular Sequence Analysis, Motifs, and Pattern Matching
• Biological Databases, Data Management, Data Integration, and Data Mining
• Big Data applications in Bioinformatics
• Structural and Functional Genomics
• Gene Identification, Regulation, and Expression
• Comparative Genomics
• Protein Structure and Modeling
• Computational Proteomics
• Gene and Protein Networks
• Molecular Evolution and Phylogenetics
• Computational Systems Biology
• Statistical Analysis of Molecular Sequences

This year, contributions related to bioinformatics as applied to SARS-Cov-2 and COVID-19 are especially welcome.
