AIMS AND SCOPE
==============

The Second International Conference on Algebraic Biology, AB'07, is
an international forum to promote discussion and interaction between
researchers who intend to apply symbolic computation - computer
algebra and computational logic - to various issues in biology.

The conference covers all aspects of applications of algebraic and
logic methods in biology, addressing

    * molecular sequence analysis
    * molecular structure analysis
    * molecular evolution
    * genomics
    * proteomics
    * gene regulation
    * gene expression
    * gene ontology
    * network Inference
    * mathematical modeling
    * model identification
    * system analysis and design
    * system verification
    * synthetic biological systems

and other problems in biology with symbolic methods including, but
not restricted to:

    * polynomial methods
    * group theoretical methods
    * rewriting methods
    * automated reasoning methods
    * automata methods
    * formal language methods
    * combinatoric methods
    * symbolic-numeric algorithms (sequential, parallel, distributed,
      grid processing)
