Subject: 06.07.03 Current challenges in computational structural biology: improving model refinement for functional predictions
Thanks to its ability to generate usable models, computational chemistry 
has branched into many different biological applications. Nevertheless, 

the uncertainty associated with all molecular models is high. 
New refinement methods are clearly needed to upgrade these models to 
reliable predictions, which could be used with confidence both by 
experimentalist and further computational studies. The goal of the 
workshop is to share new views about computational refinement and 
theoretical approaches that will enable us to improve current 
low-resolution models and make better use of experimental structures. 
Some of the issues that we will focus on are the treatment of solvent 
and conformational flexibility in docking and functional studies.
