[Nadia Pisanti]

WABI 2020 Call for Papers20th Workshop on Algorithms in BIoinformatics

Pisa (Italy) September 7-9 2020

http://algo2020.di.unipi.it/


    Scope

WABI is an international Conference covering research in algorithmic 
work in bioinformatics, computational biology and systems biology. The 
emphasis is mainly on discrete algorithms and machine-learning methods 
that address important problems in molecular biology, that are founded 
on sound models, that are computationally efficient, and that provide 
evidence of their potential usefulness in practice, preferably by 
testing on appropriately chosen simulated or real datasets.The goal is 
to present recent research results, including significant 
work-in-progress, and to identify and explore directions of future research.


    Paper Submission

Submissions must be formatted in LaTeX using the LIPIcs style 
<https://submission.dagstuhl.de/styles/download-tag/lipics/v2019.1/authors/zip>and 
must not exceed 15 pages excluding references. For details please see 
the information for authors 
<https://www.dagstuhl.de/publikationen/lipics/anleitung-fuer-autoren/>. 
Each paper must contain a succinct statement of the issues and of their 
motivation, a summary of the main results, and a brief explanation of 
their significance, all accessible to non-specialist readers. All 
submissions must be made online, through the EasyChair submission 
system, at:

https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=wabi20 
<https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=wabi2020>20

For scientific information, please contact one of the WABI program 
committee co-chairs, Nadia Pisanti (pisanti at di.unipi.it) or Carl 
Kingsford (carlk at cs.cmu.edu). For organizational information, please 
refer to the ALGO 2020 <http://algo2020.di.unipi.it>website.

You will need to register on the EasyChair web site before submitting. A 
standard .pdf file must be received by May 4, 2020(time zone of your 
choice) in order for your submission to be considered. Re-submission of 
already submitted papers will be possible until May 6, 2020(time zone of 
your choice). Simultaneous submission to another conference with 
published proceedings is not permitted, but simultaneous submission to a 
journal is allowed, provided that the authors notify the program chairs; 
if published in a journal, such a contribution will be published as a 
short abstract in the WABI proceedings. Depositing in arxiv.org 
<http://arxiv.org/>or biorxiv.org <http://biorxiv.org/>is allowed.

By submitting a paper the authors acknowledge that in case of acceptance 
at least one of the authors must register at ALGO 2020 or WABI 2020, 
attend the conference, and present the paper.


    Proceedings

Accepted papers will be published in WABI proceedings in the LIPIcs 
Leibniz International Proceedings in Informatics 
<https://www.dagstuhl.de/publikationen/lipics/>. Selected papers will be 
invited for an extended publication in a thematic series in Algorithms 
for Molecular Biology (AMB) <http://almob.biomedcentral.com/>.
