Dear Colleagues,

Hereby we would like to call your attention for the 

Physical Biology of Proteins and Peptides: 
Theory, Experiment and Simulation 
Mexico City 2015

FIRST ANNOUNCEMENT


This conference is intended as an international, multidisciplinary 
scientific forum to discuss the latest developments in the physical 
biology of proteins, peptides and enzymes. It will bring together 
highly respected scientists which will provide key insights into 
the physical biology of macromolecules. The approaches covered in 
the conference range from theoretical methods like statistical mechanics 
and spin glasses, to ab initio and coarse-grained molecular dynamics 
simulations, as well as new experimental techniques such as specific 
in-site mutagenesis in proteins and peptides and the design of new 
macromolecules with potential pharmaceutical applications, among others.

Top leaders in each of the three major fields of the conference will give 
plenary lectures. The conference is expected to boost a new paradigm of 
interdisciplinary approaches converging into specific problems about 
proteins, enzymes and peptides. Hence, the conference audience is broad: 
We aim to attract the attention of biologists as well as biochemists,
 organic chemists, engineers, computational scientists, physicists, 
and mathematicians. The venue is highly convenient since there are four 
major Research Universities in Mexico City&#39;s metropolitan area, with 
extensive undergraduate and graduate programs in physics, biology, 
medicine, engineering and mathematics. At the time being, no other 
similar conference in Mexico or Latin America has taken place. 

The program includes

1. 20 talks by national and international experts; 
2. Poster session for undergraduate / graduate students.
3. Round-Table session on new trends in Physical Biology of Proteins, 
   Peptides and Enzymes.
4. A dedicated issue of Conference Proceedings.
