The conference will take place November 11-13, 2018 in Mainz, Germany. The conference reflects and highlights the important role of chemoinformatics, which connects the modern information and data-driven world with computational modelling of molecular systems. It spans a wide range of subjects related to the use of computers in chemistry, pharmacy, materials science and biology; from informatics and data science to atomistic modelling, and from fundamental academic research to industrial applications. Confirmed Speakers: * Yulia Borodina, FDA, USA * Nathan Brown, BenevolentAI, GB * Zoe Cournia, Academy of Athens, Greece * Gabriele Cruciani, University of Perugia, Italy * Michael Gilson, University of California, San Diego, USA * Stefan Grimme, University of Bonn, Germany * Johanna Jansen, Novartis, USA * Georgia McGaughey, Vertex Pharmaceuticals, USA * Brian Shoichet, University of California, San Francisco, USA There will be sessions on: * Big Data and Deep Learning * Chemical Information * Chemoinformatics and Drug Discovery * Databases and Data Handling * Material Sciences * Molecular Modelling and Design * Protein Modelling * Simulations * Structure Determination * Target and ADMETox prediction The scientific programme will include plenary and contributed lectures, posters and software presentations. The deadline for submissions of oral contributions and research telegrams is May 31, 2018. The deadline for poster submissions is August 31, 2018. See more details at http://www.gdch.de/gcc2018 Registration will open in May 2018 at: http://www.gdch.de/gcc2018 Hope to see you in Mainz, The organizers From owner-chemistry@ccl.net Mon Jan 29 18:01:00 2018 From: "Gabriele Mogni gabriele.mogni:+:gmail.com" To: CCL Subject: CCL: New website for the Quantum Server social network Message-Id: <-53149-180129164622-7066-3m8AiSjCiSy584UCtvCixg .. server.ccl.net> X-Original-From: "Gabriele Mogni" Date: Mon, 29 Jan 2018 16:46:20 -0500 Sent to CCL by: "Gabriele Mogni" [gabriele.mogni]=[gmail.com] Dear CCL community members, I am delighted to announce that, in parallel to our networking groups on Facebook and LinkedIn, we now have a new website for our Quantum Server social network dedicated to computational scientists and engineers which you can find at the following address: http://www.qscomputing.com New services include: - A job market section where community members looking for new employment opportunities can upload their CV/profile to signal their availability, and employers can post their job announcements. - A page for launching new freelance projects and collaborations. - A service dedicated to helping and assisting researchers in accessing EU funds for research and development, such as the ERC and Marie Curie funding schemes, as well as other funding schemes under the EU's Horizon 2020 program. - A sharing platform for free-access educational resources on computational science topics where everyone can contribute. - A marketplace for CPU resources. - A start-up incubator service for would-be entrepreneurs looking to launch a new company in scientific computing applications, as well as a list of websites of existing scientific computing companies. - A marketing service based on targeted emails via LinkedIn to advertise your products or ideas to a large audience of computational scientists. - A page for advertising conferences and other events. - A common research blog for advertising your research to the rest of the community. - A youtube channel for posting videos, webinars, documentaries etc.... visible to the whole community. - Other useful links to many other websites. If you have any suggestions on how the above services could be improved or expanded, please let me know by sending me an email to gabriele.mogni**gmail.com Many thanks for your support and interest, and kind regards, Dr. Gabriele Mogni (UPMC, Paris, France)
