Subject: 14.05.25 Workshop: From Computational Biophysics to Systems Biology (CBSB14), Gdansk (Poland) May 25-27, 2014
Dear colleague,
We invite you to participate in the upcoming workshop
on biological physics and systems biology entitled
"From Computational Biophysics to Systems Biology 2014 (CBSB14)"
which will take place at the Intercollegiate Faculty of
Biotechnology, University of Gdansk and Medical University
of Gdansk, in Gdansk (Poland) May 25 through May 27, 2014.
* There are opportunities for oral presentations, and *
* students/postdocs are eligible for travel fellowships. *
* More details can be found below or at *
* http://www.cbsb.pl *
CBSB14 is organized in conjunction with the University
of Gdansk and the University of Oklahoma, and will
continue a series of successful workshops that have been held
since 2006 in both Europe and the USA.
As in previous years, the workshop aims to bring together
expertise from physics, biology, and computer science to
discuss current trends in computational biophysics and
systems biology. Topics of CBSB14 will include folding
and aggregation, protein-protein complexes, supramolecular
assemblies, cellular environments and interaction networks.
A list of confirmed speakers includes as keynote speakers:
* John Moult (University of Maryland)
* Andrzej Kolinski (University of Warsaw)
* Thomas Lippert (Forschungszentrum Juelich)
and as further invited speakers:
* Stefan Auer (University of Leeds)
* Ewa Broclawik (Jagiellonian University)
* Andrzej Kloczkowski (Children’s Hospital)
* Jooyoung Lee (Korea Institute for Advanced Study)
* Mai Suan Li (Insitute of Physics, Polish Academy of Sciences)
* Jan-Sierwert Marrink (University of Groningen)
* Jarek Meller (University of Cincinnati)
* Antti Niemi (Uppsala University)
* Stanislaw Oldziej (University of Gdansk)
* Harold A. Scheraga (Cornell University)
* Joanna Trylska (University of Warsaw)
We especially encourage participation by students and
postdocs, and we expect to offer financial support for
selected students and postdocs on a competitive basis.
Five junior scientists (students, postdocs and other
young researchers who do not hold independent academic
positions) will be selected to receive a
"CBSB14 Young Researcher Award"
which we expect to include a 250 Euro travel fellowship
and the opportunity to give a featured oral presentation.
Awardees will also be exempt from the registration fee.
Contingent on availability of funds, 10 additional
junior scientists will receive travel awards of 100 Euro
each and free registration, and will compete for
additional oral presentation slots.
All accepted applicants will be able to present their
research in poster form.
The registration deadline is April 15 to be considered
for an oral or poster presentation. Acceptance letters
and notifications of fellowship awards will be sent out
by April 22, 2014.
The registration fee is 250 Euro for regular attendees
and 150 Euro for junior scientists (students, postdocs,
and other young researchers who do not hold independent
academic positions). The corresponding early birds rates
are 200 Euro and 100 Euro (if paid by April 30, 2014).
Please circulate this announcement among your colleagues,
students, and postdocs; and contact us with any questions
you might have by sending email to office]*[cbsb.pl
