BioVis 2014 http://biovis.net/year/2014/info/cfp BioVis: The 4th Symposium on Biological Data Visualization @ ISMB (July 11-12, 2014) ========================================================== BioVis 2014: Call for Participation We invite you to contribute to the 4th Symposium on Biological Data Visualization. For the first time, the symposium will be held as a special interest group meeting at ISMB in Boston, MA, USA. The Symposium on Biological Data Visualization (BioVis) is an international and interdisciplinary event for presenting peer-reviewed scientific work on all aspects of visualization in biology. The symposium brings together researchers from the visualization, bioinformatics, and biology communities with the purpose of educating, inspiring, and engaging visualization researchers in problems in biological data visualization as well as bioinformatics and biology researchers in state-of-the-art visualization research. We are looking for contributions on all aspects of visualization in biology, from molecular to cell, tissue, organism and population biology. Possibilities of contribution are full scientific papers, scientific posters, a data contest, and a redesign contest. All papers accepted to the conference will be considered for publication in BMC Bioinformatics, as part of a thematic issue on Biological Data Visualization, associated with the conference. In addition, all accepted papers to the conference will be indexed through the IEEE Digital Library. IMPORTANT DATES Paper submissions: March 15th 2014 Data Analysis Contest submissions: May 1st 2014 Redesign Contest submissions: May 1st 2014 Poster submissions: May 24th 2014. All deadlines are 5pm (PDT). CONTACT papers@biovis.net Paper Chairs Seán O'Donoghue, Garvan Institute/CSIRO, Australia G.
