The 9^th ACM Conference on Bioinformatics, Computational Biology, and Health Informatics (ACM BCB) is the flagship conference of the ACM SIGBio. ACM-BCB 2018 is the conference's ninth year, building upon the success of the first eight meetings in Niagara Falls, Chicago, Orlando, Washington DC, Newport Beach, Atlanta, Seattle and Boston.

We also encourage the participation of physicians and medical researchers if they apply bioinformatics approaches to solve biomedical challenges in their work. We invite authors to submit results that fall into general areas of bioinformatics, computational biology, and health informatics, including but not limited to the following areas:

• Computational systems biology
• Microbiomics and Metagenomics
• Population, Evolution and Comparative Genomics
• Multi-omics data analysis and integration
• Translational Bioinformatics
• Clinical and health decision support systems
• Biomedical and clinical data analytics
• Mobile health and sensor network
• Behavioral, Environmental, and Public health informatics
• Clinical and Health decision support systems
• Bioimage and Data visualization
• Text mining of Biomedical literature and Electronic health records

Format Requirement: Submitted abstracts should not exceed two pages in ACM template on 8.5 x 11 inch paper. ACM-BCB's technical program committee will review all submissions on the basis of their originality, technical soundness, significance, presentation, and interest to the conference attendees. The accepted posters of registered authors will have the option of having a 1-page abstract included in the proceedings published by ACM Digital Library.
