Jacket Description/Back: This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 9th International Symposium on Bioinformatics Research and Applications, ISBRA 2013, held in Charlotte, NC, USA, in May 2013. The 25 revised full papers presented together with 4 invited talks were carefully reviewed and selected from 46 submissions. The papers cover a wide range of biomedical databases and data integration, high-performance bio-computing, biomolecular imaging, high-throughput sequencing data analysis, bio-ontologies, molecular evolution, comparative genomics and phylogenomics, molecular modeling and simulation, pattern discovery and classification, computational proteomics, population genetics, data mining and visualization, software tools and applications.
