Welcome to the Tenth Annual International Conference on Research in 
Computational Molecular Biology! RECOMB - Research in Computational 
Molecular Biology is a well established conference in a dynamic field 
of science bridging computer science and biology. In 2006 the conference 
will be held in Venice, Italy and promises to be the biggest and best yet 
with over 700 attendees expected. The meeting consists of keynotes from 
renowned personalities in the field and the latest research findings with 
presentations of contributed papers and posters. The first Technical 
Session begins at 8:30am on Sunday, April 2. The last Technical Session 
ends at 4:30pm on Wednesday, April 5.


 The RECOMB Conference series was founded in 1997 to provide a scientific 
forum for theoretical advances in computational biology and their 
applications in molecular biology and medicine.
The conference series aims at attracting research contributions in 
all areas of computational molecular biology. Typical, but not exclusive, 
the topics of interest are:

    * Genomics
    * Molecular sequence analysis
    * Recognition of genes and regulatory elements
    * Molecular evolution
    * Protein structure
    * Structural genomics
    * Gene Expression
    * Gene Networks
    * Drug Design
    * Combinatorial libraries
    * Computational proteomics
    * Structural and functional genomics


The origins of the conference came from the mathematical and computational 
side of the field, and there remains to be a certain focus on 
computational advances. However, the effective use of computational t
echniques to biological innovation is also an important aspect of the 
conference. The conference had a growing number of attendees, topping 600 
in recent years. We are preparing for up to 700 participants in 2006. 
The conference program includes between 30 and 40 contributed papers, 
that are selected by an international program committee with around 
30 experts during a rigorous review process rivaling the editorial 
procedure for top-rate scientific journals. In previous years paper 
selection has been made from up to 130 submissions from well over 
a dozen countries. A further point in the program is a lively poster 
session. Around 200 posters were presented at RECOMB 2005.
