1st IEEE Symposium on Biological Data Vis.

We are delighted to announce the call for participation for the 1st IEEE Symposium on Biological Data Visualization (BioVis 2011), 23-24 October 2011 in Providence, RI, USA, which will be co-located with IEEE VisWeek 2011. BioVis is designed to appeal to all interested in biological data visualization, and especially for researchers in computer science, bioinformatics, and biology who are involved in the design, implementation, application, and evaluation of novel visualization techniques and interested in the theoretical foundations underlying these topics. It features a full paper track, in which the best submissions are presented as talks and published as part of the meeting proceedings. BioVis is planned to complement the VIZBI meetings, which lack a paper track, and are instead organized in a format more typical for biology conferences. Whereas VIZBI aims to review current visualization methods, tools, and challenges in biology, BioVis aims to present novel approaches to these challenges. The VIZBI and BioVis organizers plan to actively encourage an ongoing dialog and exchange between the two meetings, e.g., by sharing invited speakers. The deadline for paper submission is 30 April 2011, and for abstracts is 8 July 2011.
