Dear Christian Wellekens,

Let me kindly inform you that due to numerous requests the position paper submission deadline for the International Conference on Bio-inspired Systems and Signal Processing (BIOSIGNALS 2015 - http://www.biosignals.biostec.org/) has been extended to 9 October 2014. We hope you can participate in this prestigious conference by submitting a position paper reflecting your current research in any of the conference topics, which are detailed further below.

This conference is part of the 8th International Joint Conference on Biomedical Engineering Systems and Technologies - BIOSTEC (http://www.biostec.org/) and it is co-located with four related conference, namely:
- BIODEVICES - International Conference on Biomedical Electronics and Devices (http://www.biodevices.biostec.org/)
- BIOIMAGING  - International Conference on Bioimaging (http://www.bioimaging.biostec.org/)
- BIOINFORMATICS - International Conference on Bioinformatics Models, Methods and Algorithms (http://www.bioinformatics.biostec.org/)
- HEALTHINF - International Conference on Health Informatics (http://www.healthinf.biostec.org/)
Registration to one conference allows free access to all other BIOSTEC conferences.

The conference will be sponsored by the Institute for Systems and Technologies of Information, Control and Communication (INSTICC), held in cooperation with the EUROMICRO, International Society for Telemedicine & eHealth (ISfTeH) and Association for the Advancement of Artificial Intelligence (AAAI) and has a technical co-sponsorship by the Biomedical Engineering Society (BMES), European Society for Engineering and Medicine (ESEM) and IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society (IEEE EMBS). INSTICC is Member of the Workflow Management Coalition (WfMC), Object Management Group (OMG) and Foundation for Intelligent Physical Agents (FIPA). The BMC Medical Informatics and Decision Making will be the Media Partner and the Science and Technology Events (SCITEVENTS) the Logistics Partner.  

BIOSIGNALS is interested in promoting high quality research as it can be confirmed by last year acceptance rates, where from 70 submissions, 20% were presented as full papers.

We would like to highlight the presence of the following keynote speakers:
- Erik Meijering, Erasmus University Medical Center, Netherlands
- Lionel Pazart, CHU, France
- Nuno Sousa, University of Minho, Portugal
- David Rose, MIT Media Lab, United States

Submitted papers will be subject to a double-blind review process. All accepted papers will be published in the conference proceedings, under an ISBN reference, on paper and on CD-ROM support.
It is planned to publish a short list of revised and extended versions of presented papers with Springer in a CCIS Series book. 
The proceedings will be submitted for indexation by Thomson Reuters Conference Proceedings Citation Index (ISI), INSPEC, DBLP, EI (Elsevier Index) and Scopus.
All papers presented at the conference venue will be available at the SCITEPRESS Digital Library (http://www.scitepress.org/DigitalLibrary/). SCITEPRESS is a member of CrossRef (http://www.crossref.org/).

Special Sessions:
- Multivariable Processing for Biometric Systems – MPBS 2015 (http://www.biosignals.biostec.org/MPBS.aspx)
- BEyond SPeech Acoustics: Enhancing Communication through Non-acoustic Signals – BESPA 2015 (http://www.biosignals.biostec.org/BESPA.aspx)

Tutorials:
- From Analysis Pipelines to Biological Insights from ChIP Sequencing Data
- Big Data Analytics in Biomedical Informatics

Best paper awards will be distributed during the conference closing session. Please check the website for further information (http://www.biosignals.biostec.org/BestPaperAward.aspx).

Workshops, Special sessions, Tutorials as well as Demonstrations dedicated to other technical/scientific topics are also envisaged: companies interested in presenting their products/methodologies or researchers interested in holding a tutorial are invited to contact the conference secretariat. Workshop chairs and Special Session chairs will benefit from logistics support and other types of support, including secretariat and financial support, to facilitate the development of a valid idea.

Finally, we also would like to highlight the Doctoral Consortium on Biomedical Engineering Systems and Technologies that will take place in conjunction with BIOSTEC and aims to provide an opportunity for graduate students to explore their research interests in an interdisciplinary workshop, under the guidance of a panel of distinguished experts in the field (http://www.biostec.org/DoctoralConsortium.aspx).

Please check further details at the BIOSIGNALS conference website (http://www.biosignals.biostec.org/). 
Should you have any question please don't hesitate contacting me.


Kind regards,
Claudia Pinto
