BSB is organized by the special interest group in Computational Biology ( CE-BioComp ) of the Brazilian Computer Society (SBC) . The initial editions of BSB, in 2002, were called WOB (Workshop on Bioinformatics) and were indexed by DBLP ; since 2005, WOB was renamed BSB, and the proceedings have been published in the series Lecture Notes in Bioinformatics (LNBI) by Springer Verlag.

Author guidelines
Submission instructions
The submissions should contain original, high quality, not submitted or published elsewhere work. Manuscripts must be written in english and include an abstract.
The format to be used is “Lecture Notes in Computer Science” (LNCS). All the explanations and necessary files for this format (in Latex or Word) can be found at Instructions for Authors. We strongly recommend all prospective authors to download the necessary files from this site as they prepare their submissions; old versions of the LNCS style files could cause problems in the upload of the camera-ready paper.
BSB will accept full papers (up to 8 pages in length), extended abstract (up to 4 pages in length) and abstract (to be presented only as posters).
Manuscripts that deviate significantly from these guidelines may risk rejection without consideration of scientific merit.
Manuscript Submission
Submission will be electronic through the meeting submission system.
You may also like to download the LaTeX and Word templates directly.
All submitted papers will be reviewed by at least three experts in the field.
