        Call for Papers, Invited Sessions & Sponsorship

BioMedical engineering and informatics are two important and comple-
mentary disciplines that hold great promise for the advancement of
biological, medical, pharmaceutical, and environmental research and
development. Bridging these two disciplines enables us to improve
our understanding of living organisms and develop innovative tech-
niques towards personalized and predictive healthcare, such as real-
time monitoring of health and detection, prevention and optimal
treatment of complex diseases.

The purpose of the 2008 International Conference on BioMedical
Engineering and Informatics (BMEI 2008) is to bring together world-
wide researchers and scientists from these two disciplines to present
and discuss state-of-the-art of engineering and informatics for
biomedicine, and to foster international collaborations. The
Conference calls for research papers that report original approaches,
new results, and system developments in real biomedical applications.

The BMEI 2008 conference proceedings will be published by the IEEE
and will be indexed in both EI and ISTP. Selected good papers will be
recommended for publication in SCI/SCI-E indexed international
journals.

The BMEI 2008 will be co-located with the 2008 Congress on Image and
Signal Processing (CISP 2008: http://www.hainu.edu.cn/CISP2008), in
order to promote cross-fertilization between the broad areas of
biomedical engineering and signal processing.
