Call for Papers
2026 International Conference on Intelligent Biology and Medicine (ICIBM 2026)
August 2-5, 2026, Buffalo, New York, USA, https://icibm2026.iaibm.org/
It is our great pleasure to announce the 14th International Conference on Intelligent Biology and Medicine (ICIBM 2026), which will take place at Buffalo, NY, USA, August 2-5, 2026, https://icibm2026.iaibm.org/. ICIBM is a premier international conference that brings together leading scholars and experts, as well as trainees, in various fields of data science/AI, computational biology, bioinformatics, genomics, systems biology, biomedical informatics, computational medicine, as well as experimentalists interested in application of computational methods in biomedical and biological studies. The conference provides a collegial and stimulating environment that fosters in-depth discussions, collaborations, and networking among participants from academic, industry, and government.
You are invited to submit papers (papers only here; For abstract submission, please submit it directly to icibm.common@gmail.com via email and follow our templates at https://icibm2026.iaibm.org/submission) with unpublished original work describing recent advances on all aspects of data science/AI, bioinformatics, genomics, intelligent computing, medical informatics, among others, including but not restricted to the following topics:

Paper Submission and Publication:
Prospective authors are invited to submit unpublished work to ICIBM 2026. All papers and abstracts will be submitted through EasyChair Conference System. Detailed information is available through: https://icibm2026.iaibm.org/submission.
All submitted papers will be peer-reviewed. Pending agreement with the publishers, selected papers of the registered authors will be published in special issues of several journals, including Briefings in Bioinformatics, Cancers, Computational and Structural Biotechnology Journal, Frontiers in Genetics, an Genes. Authors need to prepare manuscripts in the format of the corresponding journal that they prefer, and there is an option to choose the preference during submission.
