**************************************************************

Dear Colleague,

BIOSTEC welcomes the submission of position papers.
A position paper presents an arguable opinion about an issue. The goal of a
position paper is to convince the audience that your opinion is valid and worth
listening to, without the need to present completed research work and/or
validated results. It is, nevertheless, important to support your argument with
evidence to ensure the validity of your claims. A position paper may be a short
report and discussion of ideas, facts, situations, methods, procedures or
results of scientific research (bibliographic, experimental, theoretical, or
other) focused on one of the conference topic areas. The acceptance of a
position paper is restricted to the categories of "short paper" or "poster",
i.e. a position paper is not a candidate to acceptance as "full paper". 
All accepted papers will be published in the conference proceedings, under an
ISBN reference, in paper and in CD-ROM support.

BIOSTEC brings together top researchers and practitioners in several areas of
Biomedical Engineering, especially those related to Information and
Communication Technologies.
The three main topic areas of BIOSTEC have been defined as sub-conferences in
the following way:
- Health Informatics (http://www.healthinf.org)
- Biomedical Electronics and Devices (http://www.biodevices.org)
- Bio-inspired Systems and Signal Processing (http://www.biosignals.org)


Don't hesitate contacting me should you have any questions.


Best regards,
Marina Carvalho
