So please do not hesitate to submit your abstract to mmws|,|mgms-ds.de (please not later than Feb 24th 2015). If you decide to submit a poster, you are utmost welcome! *********************************************************************** ####### Workshop Information ####### Starting on Monday after lunch should allow to avoid travelling on weekend keeping the expenses at a minimum. This time, the scientific program of the meeting is conducted by Dr. Bernd Beck, Boehringer-Ingelheim, Biberach, Germany. As usual, the workshop is organised by the german Section of the Molecular Graphics and Modelling Society. ####### Plenary Speakers ####### Over the last few decades computational chemistry, molecular modelling, and chemoinformatics became more and more an integral part of research in various areas of the chemical industry and at universities. A lot of new tools and new approaches together with a huge increase in computer power facilitates this development. Nevertheless there are still research topics where currently no or only limited support by in-silico methods is possible. We are very pleased to announce Prof. Anna Linusson University of Umeå, Sweden and Dr. Karl-Heinz Baringhaus Sanofi-Aventis Deutschland GmbH, Frankfurt/Main, Germany to discuss some of these topics from an academic and an pharmaceutical industry point of view. ####### Poster and Lecture Awards ####### As in the past years, there will be two poster awards of EUR 100 each and three lecture awards for the best oral presentations: 1st Winner: Travel bursary to attend the Young Modeller's Forum in London, UK, plus a speaker slot option at YMF (travel expenses are reimbursed up to EUR 500) 2nd Winner: EUR 200 travel expenses reimbursement 3rd Winner: EUR 100 travel expenses reimbursement Only undergraduate and graduate research students qualify for the poster and lecture awards. ####### Registration ####### As every year, an interesting and successful workshop depends on your contributions! Therefore let me invite you to submit talks and/or poster titles via the registration form accessible on the workshop website http://mmws2015.mgms-ds.de/index.php?m=register This website will provide all necessary information about the meeting! The deadline for all submissions is February 13th, 2015. We are looking forward to meeting you in Erlangen soon! -Bernd Beck Scientific Committe Workshop Organisation 2015 -Harald Lanig Chairman of the MGMS-DS e.V. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ PD Dr. Harald Lanig Universitaet Erlangen/Nuernberg Zentralinstitut fuer Scientific Computing (ZISC) Geschaeftsfuehrer Martensstrasse 5a, 91058 Erlangen Fon +49 9131-85 20781 harald.lanig|,|fau.de Fax +49 9131-85 20785 http://www.zisc.uni-erlangen.de ------------------------------------------------------------------------ From owner-chemistry@ccl.net Tue Feb 17 13:31:00 2015 From: "Ross Walker rcw^^sdsc.edu" To: CCL Subject: CCL: Invitation to Computational Chemical Biology Conference 08/06-08/09 Message-Id: <-51043-150217113151-32698-XC+3ew/QZ+LMYx6S2jxCuQ-,-server.ccl.net> X-Original-From: "Ross Walker" Date: Tue, 17 Feb 2015 11:31:49 -0500 Sent to CCL by: "Ross Walker" [rcw[]sdsc.edu] Dear Colleagues, We invite you to register and submit oral and poster abstracts for the Computational Chemical Biology Conference (http://www.zingconferences.com/conferences/computational-chemical- biology/) that myself and Prof. Ian Gould are chairing. The meeting will take place at the Pullman Cairns International Hotel from 6th 9th August 2015. We have a number of exciting plenary and invited speakers lined up including a number of young and dynamic innovators from both academia and industry. The conference will focus on multidisciplinary research that leverages computer simulation to address key questions crossing the physical sciences-life sciences/biomedical interface. In particular, the conference will feature sessions focusing on the development and application of novel and state-of-the-art computational tools and technology for solving major problems in the life and biomedical sciences. Topics will include advances in molecular dynamics simulation of enzymes; computational approaches to studying the interaction of drugs, drug transporters and signaling enzymes with lipid membranes; simulation of protein-protein interaction and multi-protein complex enzymatic systems; computational study of signaling pathways; new techniques in computational drug discovery as they apply to enzyme reactivity and dynamics; simulation of allosteric interactions; advances in multi-scale modeling; new techniques for direct simulation of reactivity in biological systems; and the impact of technological advances in computer hardware and software on the field of chemical biology. The conference will feature lectures by established leaders in the fields, as well as a specific focus on encouraging young and talented researchers to present both challenging questions and new ideas for solving them. The aim is to encourage a collegial atmosphere to promote stimulating and insightful discussion while enjoying the beauty of tropical Cairns, Australia. Deadlines for submissions is 1st May 2015 for Oral abstracts and 1st June 2015 for poster abstracts. For information on confirmed speakers, sponsors and how to register, please go to: http://www.zingconferences.com/conferences/computational-chemical-biology/ [http://tinyurl.com/nyblv7o] We hope you will be able to join us in Cairns.
