WABI 2020 Call for Papers
20th Workshop on Algorithms in Bioinformatics
Pisa (Italy) September 7-9 2020
http://algo2020.di.unipi.it/WABI2020
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.
COVID-19 Arrangements for ALGO 2020
The Organization Committee (OC) is committed to ALGO 2020 and is aware
of the pandemic situation for the COVID-19 outbreak, announced by the
World Health Organization. As already happened for other conferences,
the OC is preparing backup plans such as moving the events or
(partially) running them in a virtual way. *The scientific activity of
the Programme Committees of the ALGO conferences has not been suspended
or stopped: peer review, accepted papers, camera ready and proceedings
will be accomplished as usual. *As for the talks and the participation,
the health and safety of our community is our priority: either attending
and giving the talks will be safe, and/or virtual presence will be
possible in case of remaining safety concerns or travel restrictions.
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=wabi2020
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, in order to have the paper included in the conference
proceedings, 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)
