Early Abstracts should be no more than 500 words. Manuscripts should be focused around a specific challenge with a biomedical context where they suggest a solution, demonstrate feasibility and possibly also a meaningful evaluation. Pre-submission enquiries and variations to the deadlines above may be made in consultation with the Chris Baker [email protected] * Author instructions can be obtained by sending an email to [email protected] an automated reply will be sent and complete submissions should be uploaded to Easychair:https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=aimm2012 *Journal Special Issue* A special issue in a biomedical scientific journal will be produced of the best contributions to the Workshop Proceedings. Papers have to address genuine themes relevant to the: Annotation, Interpretation and Management of Mutations (see below)* * Workshop Organizers / Special Issue Editors* - Christopher J. O.
