MCCMB'05 is the second Moscow conference on computational molecular biology and bioinformatics. MCCMB'05 will focus on modern aspects of computational and comparative genomics. We welcome submissions of two-page abstracts from researchers working, in particular, in the following areas:- Sequence analysis (statistics of DNA and protein sequences; functional annotation of DNA sequences and proteins); - Structure of biopolymers (prediction of protein structure; interaction of proteins with ligands; classification of folds and structural motifs; prediction of RNA structure); - Molecular evolution (algorithms of phylogeny analysis; evolution of genomes, regulatory systems and metabolic pathways; genome rearrangements); - Genomics and proteomics (large scale genome analysis; metabolic and signal pathways; expression arrays; SNPs in medicine and population genetics; large-scale analysis of proteomes and protein-protein interactions; automated annotation of genomes and ontologies); - Algorithms in bioinformatics; - Education in bioinformatics. Registration starts Sunday, July 17th morning July 17th evening: Welcome party July 18th morning: Conference opens July 21st evening: Conference closes July 22nd: post-conference meetings
