Call for Papers (Paper submission deadline extended to Aug 20th, 2019)
We are receiving many requests to extend the paper submission deadline for APBC 2020 from the potential authors who want to work on the paper to APBC 2020 during the summer break. Thus we decided to extend the paper submission deadline to Aug 20th.
APBC2020 invites high quality original full papers on any topic related to bioinformatics and computational biology. The submitted papers must have not been published or under the consideration for publication in any other journal or conference with formal proceedings. All accepted papers will have to be presented by one of the authors at the conference.
Detailed informaion on APBC2020 can be found at the website http://epigenomics.snu.ac.kr/APBC2020/.

Instruction to Authors
Accepted papers will be invited to be published in the following journals:
- BMC Bioinformatics
- BMC Genomics
- BMC Systems Biology
- IEEE/ACM Transactions on Computational Biology and Bioinformatics (TCBB)
- Computational Biology and Chemistry (CBC, Elsevier)
You can prepare your APBC2020 submission using the following template of any of the five journals above. The formatting requirements and templates are given below:
In general, you should use the template of the journal whose preferred themes are closest to your paper. For example, papers that are more algorithmic in nature are slightly preferred at TCBB, papers that are more systems biology modeling in nature best fit BMC Systems Biology, papers that are more genomic in nature are slightly preferred at BMC Genomics, and papers that are more bioinformatics methods and techniques in nature are preferred at BMC Bioinformatics. However, note that you may be required to reformat your paper after its acceptance to conform to the journal's special issue that the paper is assigned to.
