Moscow conference on computational molecular biology

 

 

 


Moscow, Russia
July 25–28, 2013

Moscow Conference on Computational Molecular Biology (MCCMB) is a biennial forum in various up-to-date areas of computational biology. It traditionally takes place in Lomonosov Moscow State University, but despite its "local" title both Russian and international scientists participate the conference.
The topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
  • Sequence analysis
    • statistics of DNA and protein sequences;
    • functional annotation of DNA sequences and proteins.
  • Structure of biopolymers
    • prediction of protein structure;
    • interaction of proteins with ligands;
    • classification of folds and structural motifs;
    • prediction of RNA structure.
  • Molecular evolution
    • phylogenetic analysis;
    • evolution of genomes, regulatory systems and metabolic pathways;
    • genome rearrangements.
  • Genomics and proteomics
    • large scale genome analysis;
    • metabolic and signal pathways;
    • expression arrays;
    • SNPs in medicine and population genetics;
    • large-scale analysis of proteomes and protein-protein interactions;
  • Next generation sequencing.
  • Automated annotation of genomes and ontologies.
  • Systems biology (models and networks).
  • Bioalgorithms.
  • Education in bioinformatics.
The conference also features invited talks, contributed talks, poster sessions and round tables.
The working language of the conference is English.
Proceedings of MCCMB'13 will be published after the conference in the Journal of Bioinformatics and Computational Biology.
