Workshop Theme:
==============
Recent technological advances in computer science and biomedicine facilitated the development of
complex biomedical systems including sophisticated medical imaging, signal processing systems and
computer based decision support tools, assisting diagnosis for better delivery of health care services.
Meanwhile, applications of Machine Learning, Neural Computing, Expert Systems, Fuzzy Logic and
Evolutionary Computing in biomedicine are continuously emerging. Therefore AI tools and techniques
are a vital part of modern computer based systems that handle medical data. The aim of this workshop
is to serve as a forum for the presentation of new and ongoing work and the exchange of ideas between
researchers interested in the application of AI in any aspect of biomedicine and electronic healthcare.

The subject areas of the workshop include, but are not limited to, the following:

* Clinical decision support systems
* Medical imaging
* Medical signal processing
* Medical knowledge engineering
* Knowledge-based and agent-based systems
* Medical text analysis
* Computational intelligence in bio- and clinical medicine
* Data mining on medical data and records
* Intelligent medical information systems
* Clinical expert systems
* Modelling and simulation of medical processes
* Drug discovery
* Intelligent analysis of genomic and proteomic data
* Personalised medicine
* Intelligent devices and instruments
* Automated reasoning and metareasoning in medicine
* AI in medical education

Submission
========
Authors are invited to submit original, English-language research contributions or experience reports.
Papers should be no longer than 10 pages formatted according to the well-known LNCS Springer style.
The program committee may reject papers that exceed this length on the grounds of length alone.
Papers should be submitted either in a doc or in a pdf form to h.papadopoulos@frederick.ac.cy

Publication
========
Submitted papers will be refereed for quality, correctness, originality, and relevance. Notification
and reviews will be communicated via email. Accepted papers will be presented at the workshop
and published in the Proceedings of the main event. They will be also considered for potential selection
for publication in the Special Issues.

Important Dates:
=============
Full paper submission due: April 30, 2011
