The conference will be held in Tartu, Estonia, between the 11th and the 16th of September 2011, the International Year of Chemistry. This six-day event will feature recent findings from leading experts in the field, in the form of plenary, invited, and contributed lectures and posters. Abstracts for consideration as Contributed Lectures, and Poster Presentations can be submitted on-line at our web-site. All submitted abstracts received will be reviewed on the basis of scientific merit, novelty and practical application. Due to the limited slots available, only the best abstracts will be selected for oral presentations. Conference participants may have (after peer-review) their papers published in a special issue of Journal of Physical Organic Chemistry. We suggest that all interested participants register and book their hotel as early as possible. Please join us at Tartu for both work and enjoyment in September 2011 to explore a plethora of information on current research in physical organic chemistry and to network with fellow academics and industrial researchers. DEADLINES: Abstract submission: June 20th, 2011 Early-bird (reduced cost) registration: June 20th, 2011 Registration: August 31st, 2011 We apologize for possible cross-postings!

XCITR is a repository for exploring and sharing chemical information teaching resources which should be extended to other fields of computational chemistry in the future. A corresponding oral contribution introducing the project will be given during the conference. In addition people, can inform themselves at the XCITR exhibition booth. I also want to mention the MosGrid (Molecular Simulation Grid, www.mosgrid.de) community meeting which also will take place during the GCC2010 in Goslar, Germany. This project is part of the D-Grid initiative and might be interesting for all the people which are working with Grid solutions. Besides these activities I do not should forget to mention the general scientific agenda of the international conference which covers many contributions from different fields of Computational Chemistry. Please have a look to the scientific program: http://www.gdch.de/vas/tagungen/tg/programm5412.pdf You can still register for the conference until October 28, 2010.

The new free version of ICM-Browser and the ActiveICM plugin contains enhancements which allow you to create and save fully-interactive 3D molecular documents to display in PowerPoint and the Web (see some screenshots here http://www.molsoft.com/icm-browser-screenshots.html ). These new features make it easy to communicate chemical and protein structures clearly and effectively. The ICM-Browser technology is already being used by PLoS ONE, PLoS Biology, and Molecular & Cellular Proteomics journals for publishing, and many pharmaceutical companies and academic labs use it for data sharing and high-quality molecular graphics. The SGC have been key in guiding MolSoft's development of this software and they use ICM-Browser technology to present their data to the public. The software runs on Linux, Mac, and Windows. Please join us at one of our free webinars, please register here http://www.molsoft.com/training.html The new features include: - Build and save fully-annotated and interactive 3D molecules and display them in Safari, Firefox, Google Chrome, and Internet Explorer. - Display fully interactive molecules in Windows PowerPoint. - Display ligand pocket surfaces colored by binding property. - Add and optimize hydrogens to a PDB structure. - Calculate and display hydrogen bonds. - Generate and display molecule surfaces. - Display transparent surfaces. - Save publication quality molecular graphics files in a variety of image formats. It is easy to get started: 1. Click here http://www.molsoft.com/getbrowser.cgi to download the ICM-Browser software and click here http://www.molsoft.com/getbrowser.cgi?product=activeicm&act=list to download the ActiveICM plugin. 2. Follow the documentation and videos here: - ICM-Browser User Guide http://www.molsoft.com/gui/ICM-Browser-How-To.html for instructions on all the graphics features. - ActiveICM User Guide http://www.molsoft.com/gui/how-to-activeicm.html for instructions on how to display in PowerPoint and Web Browsers. All the features in the previous version of ICM-Browser remain including: - Powerful PDB search and download options. - Full links to UniProt and PFam - Label residues, atoms, and variables. - 2D and 3D annotation. - Measure and display distances and angles. - Protein superposition. - View and make high resolution images of alignments.
