Advances in medicine and biology via engineering approaches: highlights from the 3rd International Conference on Bioinformatics and Biomedical Engineering.

The 3rd International Conference on Bioinformatics and Biomedical Engineering (iCBBE2009, http://www.icbbe.org/2009) was held from June 11th to 13th, 2009, in Beijing, China. The iCBBE was initially launched by the Advanced Research Center for Science and Technology at Wuhan University in 2006, and technically sponsored by the Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society (EMBS) of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE). The first conference, iCBBE2007 was held in Wuhan University, Wuhan, China. The second one, iCBBE2008, was held in Shanghai Jiaotong University, co-sponsored by EMBS, Gordon Life Science Institute (USA), Fudan University (China), Beijing University of Posts and Telecommunications (China), Beijing Institute of Technology (China), Wuhan University (China), and Journal of Biomedical Science and Engineering (USA). Dr. Kuo-Chen Chou of Gordon Life Science Institute (USA) chaired the third conference, iCBBE2009, which included 10 keynote speeches, 12 oral sessions and 4 poster sessions. More than 600 distinguished scholars around the world attended the conference to exchange their new discoveries in the related areas. The conference proceedings have been published by IEEE; all accepted papers by the conference are archived in IEEE Xplore database and will be indexed by EI Compendex soon.
