Subject: 09.04.27 Computational Chemistry, Bio-IT World Expo 2009 * Boston, MA
This conference is the one time every year when life science and IT professionals from all over the world gather to learn about their profession and share insights with their colleagues. The return on your investment is substantial. This year's Computational Chemistry track has been purposely designed around what the community considers the most important issues and areas of discussion. Please take a look at this year's faculty and sessions and join us in Boston in April. This year's Computational Chemistry track has a new focus and a faculty of thought leaders from pharma, biotech, academia, and research institutes: - Andreas Bender, Ph.D., Assistant Professor, Medicinal Chemistry Division, Leiden / Amsterdam Center for Drug Research - Derek Debe, Ph.D., Senior Group Leader, Scientific Informatics and Automation, Abbott Laboratories - David DeCaprio, Ph.D., Associate Platform Director for Chemical Biology and Novel Therapeutics, Broad Institute - Meir Glick, Ph.D., Research Investigator II, Lead Discovery Informatics, Novartis Institutes for BioMedical Research - Rajarshi Guha, PhD, Visiting Assistant Professor, Informatics, Indiana University - Anton Hopfinger, Ph.D., Professor, University of New Mexico, Editor, Journal of Chemical Information and Modeling - Professor Andrew L.
