BioAxis DNA Research Centre (BDRC) announces PhD (Biotech/Other life science) Admissions for 2010

Dated: Jan 28, 2010

BioAxis DNA Research Centre (BDRC), Hyderabad announces the M. Phil and PhD intake for the
academic year 2010 in the areas of all life science areas. A maximum of 30 persons will be entertained forthe on campus programme and 45 persons for off campus programme. Selection will be done on the basis of online test followed by telephonic interview.

ABOUT THE PROGRAM:
The intensity of the Program demands energy and zeal in the pursuit of greater understanding, and a
willingness to master the behavioral, scientific, Biological and mathematical sciences that are the essential
components of academic research in Life science disciplines. Each student in the Program chooses to
concentrate in one of different available fields of study. Field selection—and later, dissertation advisor or
guide,—play a key role in guiding students through the Program. Such preparation reaches its culmination
in the original research presented in a candidate's doctoral dissertation, and conferral of the Ph.D. in Life
Science areas signifies that he or she has attained expert competence in a major field of study of life.
Although a student's primary  Coursework and research activities are concentrated in the field of specialization, this does not limit the  range of a student's study; cross-disciplinary study is frequent and encouraged.

Applications are invited from the interested personals for the following areas;

Biotechnology
Bioinformatics

CALL FOR PAPERS: Special Session on Computational Intelligence for Bioinformatics (CIB) as part of the WCCI 2010 (IJCNN + Fuzz-IEEE + IEEE CEC), Barcelona, Spain, 18-23 July, 2010.

The 2010 IEEE World Congress on Computational Intelligence will be held on July 18-23, 2010, in Barcelona, Spain. The special session "Computational Intelligence for Bioinformatics" (CIB) is intended to bring together top researchers, practitioners, and students, from around the world. CIB will serve as a platform to discuss applications of Computational Intelligence in the field of Bioinformatics, Computational Biology, and Bioengineering, for solving problems in medicine, pharmacy, health and life sciences, biology, and forensic sciences.

This CIB special session is sponsored and co-organized by the IEEE BBTC, the IEEE DMTF and the INNS SIGs on Bioinformatics and Biopattern. It spans two WCCI conferences (IJCNN and IEEE-CEC) and integrates four tracks: CIBCBB, CIBDA, CIPI and CIBSDF, described below. The conference associated with each track is also indicated in this description. Further details on the CIB session can be found at, http://www.neuronelab.dmi.unisa.it/wcci2010. We cordially invite you to submit research articles in this CIB session. We also encourage you to distribute the attached "call-for-papers" to your colleagues. Please visit WCCI 2010 at http://www.wcci2010.org.

• Camera-Ready Submission: 2 May 2010

Paper Submission: Electronic web submission in PDF format at http://www.wcci2010.org/ .

Submission to the CIB Special Session:
The CIB session spans two WCCI conferences: CEC and IJCNN. Each of the two conferences has its own review system, and the outcome of such system will be that conference’s proceeding. There are two ISBNs for the proceedings of two conferences. Authors can select the conference through which they will like their paper(s) to be reviewed and published (if accepted). When an author submits a paper for a given track of our CIB session, s/he should (1) select the conference associated with the given CIB track, and then (2) tag the paper using the CIB name (available from the paper topic roll-down menu) as the first topic. The same paper can only appear in one conference proceeding and it will be available from IEEEXplore (from that proceeding).

CIB Scheduling and Publications:
Accepted papers from all CIB tracks will be integrated into a single block that will be presented in a coherent manner in one multi-disciplinary track at WCCI. Each paper will be published in the proceedings of the conference that was selected for submission. The same paper will not appear in two conference proceedings, even if our CIB session spans two conferences.

We look forward to seeing you in Barcelona.
