The organizers of the 4th EURO Working Group Conference on Operational
Research in Computational Biology, Bioinformatics and Medicine have a
pleasure to invite you to take part in this conference to be held in
Poznan, Poland, June 26-28, 2014.

Abstract submission deadline has been extended until March 2, 2014!

Make plans for your participation now - register today at:

Aims and Scope of the conference
The objective of EURO CBBM is to bring together researchers developing and
using computational methods to solve problems in computational biology,
bioinformatics and medicine. The conference intends to be an effective
forum for the exchange of ideas and discussion of current research issues
and future trends in the above area.

WE WELCOME SUBMISSIONS on all aspects of biomolecular sequence analysis,
comparative genomics, metabolic network modeling and analysis, modeling
and prediction of gene patterns, microarray informatics, protein and RNA
structure prediction, protein interactions, genetic networks, analysis of
genetic variations, systems biology, gene classification, docking and drug
design, phylogenetics, and others!


INVITED TALKS will be given by:

- Marek Figlerowicz (Inst.of Bioorganic Chemistry, PAS, Poland)
   'Copy number variations in plant genomes'

- Giuseppe Lancia (University of Udine, Italy)
   '20 Years of haplotyping: an overview.'

- Katarzyna Purzycka (Inst. of Bioorganic Chemistry, PAS, Poland)
   'RNAComposer. Challenges in modelling three-dimensional structures of
    large RNAs.'

- Eric Westhof (Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique, France)
