Welcome to the First IEEE International Conference on Computational Advances in Bio and Medical Sciences (ICCABS 2011)! Computational techniques are revolutionizing the way in which research is conducted in science and engineering. Unsurpassed advances have been made in myriads of application domains. This is particularly true in the areas of biology, medicine, and drug discovery. Even though a number of conferences exist today in the general area of bioinformatics, they focus on computational biology to a large extent. ICCABS has the goal of bringing together scientists in all the three areas and hence serving as a platform for bridging the research efforts in these areas. The response from these communities to the ICCABS call for papers has been indeed gratifying. I am honored to serve these international communities by bringing together researchers, scientists, and students from academia, laboratories, and industry to this premier meeting held in the ever exciting city of Orlando, FL.
