    Call For Papers - CFP

    Data intensive disciplines, such as life sciences and medicine, are promoting vivid research activities in the area of databases. Modern technologies, such as high-throughput mass-spectrometry and sequencing, micro-arrays, high-resolution imaging, etc. produce enormous and continuously increasing amounts of data. Huge public databases provide access to aggregated and consolidated information on genome and protein sequences, biological pathways, diseases, anatomy atlases, and scientific literature. There has never been more potentially available information to study biomedical systems, ranging from single cells to complete organisms. However, it is a non-trivial task to transform the vast amount of biomedical data into actionable information triggering scientific progress and supporting patient management. Major biomedical application scenarios for research in the database community include but are not limited to:

    Systems biology

    Genomics, proteomics, and metabolomics

    Genome-wide association studies

    Drug target discovery and personalized medicine

    Neuroscience

    Electronic patient records

    Patient monitoring

    Surgery planning and support

    etc.

    Various emerging database technologies for coping with the challenges of these application scenarios have been developed and are an active area of research in information technology:

    Administration of vast amounts of data

    Integration of heterogeneous data sources

    Federated and distributed databases

    Data warehouses

    Data mining techniques like classification, clustering, association rule mining, etc.

    Decision support systems

    Information and image retrieval

    Signal processing and streaming databases

    Privacy protection and data security

    Data quality assurance

    Process management and collaborative work

    User interfaces and visualization

    Interoperability and standardization

    etc.

    Designing database technology to support applications in life sciences and medicine is an inspiring field of interdisciplinary research. The path from an idea to a practical application is often long and laborious, involving intensive interactions between experts in information technology, life sciences and the medical field. ITBAM accompanies and supports this path by providing an excellent venue for the exchange of ideas, fruitful discussion, and effective interaction among interdisciplinary researchers.

    In addition to the regular conference program featuring presentations of full and short research papers published in the proceedings, ITBAM encourages the submission of posters reporting work in progress. All accepted posters will be displayed during the whole event and abstracts will also be included in the proceedings.
