    * Structural Genomics
    * Computer security for Patient Privacy

Tutorial Proposal
Proposals should contain the following information:

    * Tutorial title. Expected goals and objectives
    * Detailed outline of the presentation
    * Intended audience: indicate level with respect to biomedicine,
algorithmics, statistics, programming, etc.
