--- CALL FOR PAPERS TRACKS --- DEADLINE EXTENDED TO FEBRUARY 10, 2012

CBMS2012 will be held on 20-22 June 2012 at the University Campus Bio-Medico

of Rome, Italy. It is technically sponsored by the IEEE, the Italian Chapter of

the IAPR (GIRPR), the Italian Chapters of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and

Biology Society, the Italian Chapters of the IEEE Computer Society, and the

University Campus Bio-Medico of Rome.

CBMS 2012 will provide an international forum for discussing the latest

developments in the field of computational medicine, biomedical informatics

and related fields. The conference is part of the Bioengineering Week,

an exciting week totally dedicated to bioengineering research, featuring a

unique concentration of several scientific, cultural and educational events,

mostly taking place in Rome (www.bioengweek2012.org).

The scientific program of CBMS 2012 will consist of regular and special track

sessions with technical contributions reviewed and selected by an international

programme committee, as well as keynote talks and tutorials given by

leading experts in their fields. The symposium is the premier conference

for computational medicine, providing a mechanism for the exchange of

ideas and technologies between academics and industrial scientists, and

attracts a worldwide audience. Regular and special track presentations

will cover a broad range of issues in (but not limited to) the following areas:

RELEVANT TOPICS (NON-EXHAUSTIVE LIST)

? Software Systems in Medicine

? Network and Telemedicine Systems

? Web-Based Delivery of Medical Information

? Medical Databases & Information Systems

? Knowledge Discovery & Data Mining

? Computer-Aided Diagnosis

? Knowledge-Based Systems and Techniques

? Content Analysis of Biomedical Image Data

? Decision Support Systems

The Italian Chapter of the IAPR (International Association for Pattern Recognition) offers

a prize to a young researcher in memory of prof. Ezio Catanzariti. The prize will consist

of 500 ? and a plaque.

Best papers will be invited to submit extended versions for Special Issues of the following:

Journal of Behaviour and Information Technology (Taylor & Francis), Journal of Computers and

Biology in Medicine (Elsevier), or Transactions on Information Technology in Biomedicine (IEEE).

CBMS 2012 will feature a general track and twelve special tracks:
