The
main objective of the Proceedings of the Virtual Conference
is to establish a prestigious compilation of research advances,
discussions and reviews on emerging issues related with genomics
and bioinformatics. To attain maximum interaction among the
authors and their readers, each submitted paper will subject
to a stringent double blind review process, and accepted manuscripts
will published both in paper and electronic forms and will
be invited for oral presentations. The deadline for paper
submission is CLOSED (deadline June
30, 2005)
The
proceedings will cover five main categories: Experimental
Research, Statistical and Computational Approaches for the
Analysis of Genomic Data, Modeling and Simulation of Biological
Systems, Reviews and Letters. We invite you to publish research
advances and views using the proceedings
template. Submission
of a paper implies that it has not been published and is not
under consideration for publication elsewhere. If you are
interested to present your research as short poster,
please use the proceedings
template. Authors of accepted papers and extended posters
are encouraged to submit a presubmission inquiry for publication
of their papers to PLoS Computational Biology, who will review
the inquiries according to their standard criteria.
In
order to achieve the maximum exchange of ideas across sub-disciplines,
authors are encouraged to take special consideration to the
use of terminologies to describe their results. The main idea
supporting this approach is that the exchange of information
among multidisciplinary and inter-institutional research efforts
can lead to new discoveries and automated query systems that
will increase the efficiency of accessing the sum of current
knowledge. It is also the policy for the proceedings, that
published material will have available any additional required
data for duplication or validation. In this spirit, the Virtual
Conference on Genomics and Bioinfofrmatics encourage authors
to follow the adopted non-restrictive, progressive experimental
and data sharing standards on the implementation of their
supplementary material.

covered by the 2005 Issue will include:
Artificial and Synthetic Life
