    • The aim of Special Sessions is to cover specific fields within the scope of IWBBIO 2016, and they would be composed typically of at least 5 papers, plus an additional tutorial or introductory paper to the Special session topic, done by the organizer(s). This tutorial is optional, and must be written according to the regular instructions for authors. The tutorial will not be submitted to the IWBBIO review process.
    • The procedure for the submission of the final papers is the same for all contributions, and it will be made through the IWBBIO 2016 web section. The authors are asked to indicate the Special Session title to which their paper is submitted.
    • The organizers are invited to submit, besides the optional tutorial, no more than one regular paper to their own Special Session. This paper will be included in the review process.
    • The review process for papers submitted to a specific Special Session will be the following: (i) At least two reviewers will be assigned (like any regular paper submitted to IWBBIO conference) (ii) One reviewer could be the Special Session organizer or an invited reviewer suggested by him/her.

    • The review process for each Special Session will be organized by the IWBBIO board, together with the organizer(s) of the Special Session. They will take into consideration all the papers submitted to the specific Session, according to the established procedure.
    • A minimum number of 3 accepted regular papers (tutorial done by the organizer(s) is not considered) will be necessary for the development of a Special Session.
    • Contributors to Special Sessions will be treated as every participant in IWBBIO 2016, what means that they are expected to pay the corresponding regular fee.
