Introduction
The main goal of this 15th edition of the CIBB international conference is to provide a multi-disciplinary forum open to researchers interested in the application of computational intelligence, in a broad sense, to open problems in bioinformatics, biostatistics, systems and synthetic biology and medical informatics. Cutting edge methodologies capable of accelerating life science discoveries will be discussed.
Following its tradition and roots, this year's meeting will bring together researchers from the international scientific community interested in advancements and future perspectives in bioinformatics and biostatistics. Also, looking at current trends and future opportunities at the edge of computer and life sciences, the application of computational intelligence to system and synthetic biology, and the consequent impact on innovative medicine will be of great interest for the conference. Theoretical and experimental biologists are also invited to participate in order to present novel challenges and foster multidisciplinary collaboration.

Guidlines
All papers must be original and not simultaneously submitted to another journal or conference. Prospective authors should submit papers prepared according to the following instructions:
- Papers should be submitted in PDF format (this is the only accepted format)
- Papers length should be at least 4 pages and should not exceed 6 pages
- We warmly recommend the use of the provided latex template and instructions. Should this not be possible, authors should reproduce the format and style of the sample paper available with the latex style.
- Papers should adhere, as much as appropriate, to the following structure and sections:
- Scientific background
- Materials and methods
- Results
- Conclusions
- References
Pdf versions of accepted papers will be distributed at the conference. At least one author of an accepted paper is required to register and present their paper at the conference. Authors of accepted papers will be invited to submit an extended version of their work to a post -conference monograph.
We plan to invite all papers for a volume in the Springer series of Lecture Notes in Bioinformatics (LNBI). Continuing the tradition of CIBB, we are also planned to invite the best papers, as an alternative to the publication on LNBI, to a special Issue of an international scientific journal (such as BMC Bioinformatics, as in the latest editions).
