Biomolecular Interactions - This conference will bring together leading
experts in modelling, theoretical, informatics and experimental 
approaches to the study of biomolecular interactions, from both 
academia and industry. The interactions of small ligands with 
biological macromolecules will be a particular focus. The conference 
will be dedicated to Prof. Peter A. Kollman, in recognition of his work
in the field, and his support of MGMS conferences. 

Abstracts are invited for consideration for poster and/or oral 
presentation - details can be found on the conference website at:
