Dear Tom,
Thank you again for your participation in RECOMB RegulatoryGenomics/ SystemsBiology/DREAM3 last year. We hope you enjoyed the meeting, the online videos and materials, the conference program, and the high quality of presentations.
The 2009 joint meeting will be back at MIT, and we really hope you can make it! This year we are partnering with PLoS Computational Biology and PLoS ONE to publish all accepted papers, and we hope to see again a strong response.
Manuscript submissions are now open, and we attach below the call for papers, abstracts, and challenge predictions. Please do forward the email to your group and colleages that may find it of interest, and we hope to see you at MIT this December for what promises to be a great meeting!
With best regards, Manolis Kellis, Ziv Bar-Joseph, Andrea Califano, and Gustavo Stolovitzky

Call for Papers, Abstracts, and Challenge Predictions
JOINT CONFERENCE ON REGULATORY GENOMICS AND SYSTEMS BIOLOGY
6th RECOMB Satellite Meeting on Regulatory Genomics 5th RECOMB Satellite Meeting on Systems Biology 4rd Dialogue on Reverse Engineering Assessment and Methods (DREAM4)
In partnership with: PLoS Computational Biology and PLoS ONE
Wed Dec 2, 2009 (5pm) - Sun Dec 6, 2009 (1pm) The Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard http://compbio.mit.edu/recombsat/
Following the success of last year we have once again combined three key conferences in regulatory and systems biology in what promises to be a very exciting meeting. The goal of the joint meeting is to bring computational and experimental scientists together towards a systems-level understanding of gene regulation, cell signaling and other cellular processes. The meeting will consist of invited keynote presentations, oral presentations of accepted papers and abstracts, DREAM4 presentations of reverse engineering challenge responses, and four poster sessions.
The 2008 meeting drew more than 500 participants, including 103 international participants from 24 countries. We received 250+ abstract submissions, 400+ challenge predictions, and 50+ paper submissions, resulting in 93 oral presentations, 160 poster presentations, and 24 papers published in our partner journals, and we expect a similar response this year.
We are once again collaborating with two leading journals, PLoS Computational Biology and PLoS ONE, and all accepted manuscripts will appear in one of the two journals, based on the recommendation of the program committee and the journal editors. We are working closely with PLoS to make sure all accepted papers can appear online by the date of the meeting, and referenced in PubMed accordingly. All accepted papers will be guaranteed an oral presentation at the meeting, with links to the recorded video presentations accompanying each paper in PLoS. In addition, all accepted papers published in both PLoS journals will become part of a PLoS Collection, with additional content and features.
In addition to paper submissions, we will consider abstract submissions for oral or poster presentations. All abstracts will be treated as personal communication, and authors will reserve the right to submit their work elsewhere for publication.
Topics for papers and abstracts include: * RG: Modeling and recognition of regulatory motifs and modules. * RG: Chromatin state establishment, maintenance, and role in development. * RG: Post-transcriptional regulation and small regulatory RNAs. * RG & SB: Regulatory networks, metabolic networks, proteomic networks. * RG & SB & DREAM: Pathway inference and reverse engineering of cellular networks. * SB: Cellular signatures of biological responses and disease states. * SB: Phosphorylation, metabolic fluxes, systematic phenotyping. * SB: Mathematical modeling and simulation of biological systems. * DREAM: experimental/algorithmic designs of reverse engineering protocols. * DREAM: assessment and comparison of reverse engineering methods.
Keynote speakers: Naama Barkai, Mark Biggin, Walter Fontana, Nevan Krogan, Ihor Lemischka, Ed Marcotte, Franziska Michor, Garry Nolan, Nikolaus Rajewsky, Bob Waterston, Kevin White, Michael Yafee, Rick Young.
Key Dates: Paper submission deadline: Fri July 24, 2009 Notification of journal assignments by: Tue, Sept 15 2009 Abstract submission deadline: Thu Oct 1st, 2009 Registration deadline: Thu Oct 1st, 2009 DREAM challenge response date: Thu Oct 15, 2009

something to consider? I mean publishing a paper in PLoS Computational Biology would be very good. Not so sure about PLoS One though ... Yves -- Yves Van de Peer, PhD.
