[SocBiN] RECOMB Conference in Regulatory and Systems Genomics, with DREAM Challenges

[Rune Linding]

CALL FOR PAPERS, ABSTRACTS, and NOMINATIONS
RECOMB/ISCB Regulatory Systems Genomics and DREAM 2012

Dear colleague,

It is our pleasure to announce the 5th annual joint RECOMB Conference on
Regulatory and Systems Genomics, with DREAM Challenges, one of the premier
annual meetings for computational and experimental scientists in the fields
of regulatory genomics and systems biology. The meeting will be held at the
Hotel Sofitel San Francisco Bay on November 12-15, 2012.

This conference is designed to present the latest findings about regulatory
and systems genomics, foster discussion about current research directions,
and establish new collaborations that will advance the development of a
systems-level understanding of gene regulation.

Invited speakers include: Howard Chang, Job Dekker, Angela DePace, Joe
Ecker, Yoav Gilad, Len Pennacchio, Saurabh Sinha, Stephen Friend, Jonathan
Weissman, Dean Felsher, Michael Elowitz, Joe Nadeau, Markus Covert, Joe
Gray, and Ernest Fraenkel.

We are now accepting submissions of full-length papers to be considered for
Genome Research and the Journal of Computational Biology. Accepted papers
will be published in conjunction with the conference and authors of
selected papers will be invited to present their work at the meeting. Our
program committee will review all submitted papers in collaboration with
the journal editors and the conference chairs.

We are also accepting submissions of abstracts, including both original
unpublished work and work that has been published or accepted for
publication by a high-impact journal between January 1 and November 1,
2012. Unpublished work will be considered for either an oral or a poster
presentation. Work already accepted for publication will be considered for
an oral presentation only.

Lastly, we invite nominations for RegGen-TopTen 2011, our list of the most
influential papers of 2011 in the fields of Regulatory and Systems
Genomics, in conjunction with the ISMB Special Interest Group on Regulatory
Genomics (RegGen SIG). First and last authors of these papers will be
honored at the meeting and highlighted online. All nominations will be
evaluated by leaders in the field, including our past keynote speakers.

Submission information is available at http://recomb-2012.c2b2.columbia.edu/
.

*** The deadline for all submissions is Friday, September 7. ***

Areas of interest for papers, abstracts, and nominations include:
* Modeling and recognition of regulatory motifs and modules
* Chromatin state establishment, maintenance, and role in development
* Post-transcriptional regulation and small regulatory RNAs
* Regulatory networks, metabolic networks, proteomic networks
* Cellular signatures of biological responses and disease states
* Phosphorylation, metabolic fluxes, systematic phenotyping
* Mathematical modeling and simulation of biological systems
* Methods for systematic validation of high-throughput biological
predictions
* Approaches for aggregation of results arising from different methodologies

Registration is also now open at the link above. We look forward to seeing
you in San Francisco this November!

Best regards,

Andrea Califano, Manolis Kellis, Sylvia Plevritis, and Gustavo Stolovitzky
