Those meetings consist of 2-3 talks starting at 4pm, followed by a visit to the local pub for dinner and making new friends (as well as meeting old ones). Hence, the intent of those meetings is not to provide a comprehensive schedule of talks, but they are rather enabling us to meet people next door who do very interesting work related to our own (but whom, for one reason or another, we don't get to know that often just by accident). Meetings are free and open to anyone to attend. So the message is actually rather simple: If you are (or soon will be) based in the South East and you might be interested in attending our meetings you are simply very welcome to join in! You are very welcome to join us for talks and dinner anytime - so far we had an audience of 30-50 people at every event, from both academia and industry. I am also very happy to add you on our e-mail list if desired - there are very few e-mails, maybe 1/month, it is only used for our local cheminformatics meeting and job announcements. And, of course, you are very welcome to present your scientific work anytime - please just let me know if you wish to do so, external speakers are as welcome to present as speakers from the area. More information (such as the meeting schedule) can be found at http://www.c-inf.net - or feel free to contact me in case you would like to have any further information. Our next meeting will be held on 23 November, at 4pm, at the Unilever Centre for Molecular Science Informatics, on Lensfield Road, Cambridge. If you are in the area you are very welcome to just drop in, the topics of talks will both be circulated on our internal e-mail list and be posted on the website shortly. If you need any other details please just let me know anytime as well - cheers! Best wishes and hope to see you soon in Cambridge, Andreas -- Andreas Bender, PhD Lecturer for Molecular Informatics Unilever Centre, Cambridge University http://www-ucc.ch.cam.ac.uk Personal: http://www.andreasbender.de
