AIMS:

Research and development in bioinformatics and computational biology require the cooperation of specialists from the fields of biology, computer science, mathematics, statistics, physics, and such related sciences. It is the comprehensive application of mathematics (e.g., probability and graph theory), statistics, science (e.g., biochemistry), and computer science (e.g., computer algorithms and machine learning) to the understanding of living systems. Bioinformatics is fast emerging as an important discipline for academic research and industrial application. The large size of biological data sets, inherent complexity of biological problems and the ability to deal with error-prone data all result in special requirements such as large memory space and huge computation time. These challenges require computer scientists to rethink our traditional methods and algorithms and to adapt to the new research area. The objective of this book series is therefore to provide timely treatments of the different aspects of bioinformatics spanning theory, new and established techniques, enabling technologies and tools, and application domains.

SCOPE:

This series emphasizes the algorithmic, mathematical, statistical and computational methods that are central in bioinformatics and computational biology. Although the possible set of book topics is large, the following areas are particularly suitable for our book series (but not exhaustive):

Bioinformatic databases
Biomedical image processing (segmentation, registration, fusion)
Bio-ontology and data mining
Computational genomics
Computational intelligence in bioinformatics
Data visualisation
DNA assembly, clustering, and mapping
Drug design
Gene expression and microarrays
Gene identification and annotation
Machine learning methods in bioinformatics
Molecular evolution and phylogeny
Molecular modeling and simulation
Protein, RNA and DNA sequence analysis
Parallel computing in bioinformatics
Phylogeny reconstruction algorithms
Protein and RNA structure prediction
Sequence assembly, sequence search and alignment
System biology
