SPECIAL SESSION: Optimizing Development and Delivery of Personalized Medicine via Computational Intelligence
18th
IEEE International Conference on Computational Intelligence in
Bioinformatics and Computational Biology (CIBCB), 13-15 October
2021,
Melbourne, Australia
https://federation.edu.au/cibcb2021
The IEEE CIBCB 2021 conference will bring together top researchers, practitioners, academics and students from around the globe to discuss the latest advances in the field of computational intelligence and its informatics, bioengineering and related fields. Computational intelligence approaches include artificial neural networks, fuzzy logic, evolutionary algorithms, hybrid algorithms and other emerging techniques.
This special session will present various aspects of the design and application of computational intelligence techniques to the development and delivery of personalised medicine (PM). Some personalised medical products, such as Advanced Therapy Medicinal Products (ATMPs) are at the intersection of multiple healthcare logistic networks and, due to their novelty, research around their commercialisation is still in its infancy from an operations research perspective. Topics of interest include, but are not limited, to the application of computational intelligence to the following areas:
-
Optimization models for single and multi-echelon PM supply chains.
-
Innovation and emerging technologies in the manufacturing of ATMPs.
-
PM supply chain coordination.
-
Demand forecasting and fair patient allocation for PM.
-
The effects of COVID-19 on the development and delivery of PM.
-
Managing perishable PM products.
-
Local versus global delivery of PM.
We accept long papers (up to 8 pages) and short papers (up 2 pages, which will find a place in a companion proceeding). The short papers can also discuss recently accepted/published papers appearing in a top conference or journal.
Important dates:
Deadline for submission: 30 May 2021
Notification of acceptance: 15 June 2021
Deadline for final paper submission: 15 July 2021
