[BBC] call for abstracts 'Regulatory Genomics Special Interest Group – RegGenSIG'

[Michiel Van Bel]

Dear All,

Note that the deadline for abstract submission of the 'Regulatory 
Genomics Special Interest Group – RegGenSIG' satellite meeting of ISMB 
is fastly approaching (April 27 for oral presentations and May 18 for 
poster presentations).

RegGenSIG 2012 will include presentations and posters that cover the 
broad spectrum of topics important to regulatory genomics research, and 
a joint panel discussion with the Alternative Splicing SIG. RegGenSIG 
will bring together experts in experimental methods and computational 
methods to consider sequence-based reconstruction of regulatory networks 
and prediction of gene expression. Topics to be addressed in the SIG 
include the following
·inference of gene regulatory networks,
·utilization of information pertaining to epigenetics, chromatin 
structure, and histone modifications,
·determination of the roles of regulatory RNAs,
·prediction of transcriptional regulation from RNA-seq data and ChIP-seq 
data,
·pattern discovery in sequences, and
·sequence based modeling of gene expression.

If you would still consider submitting an abstract please consult

Looking forward seeing you at ISMB 2012
