The 1st Zing Computational Chemical Biology conference will bring together scientists to
discuss multidisciplinary research that leverages computer simulation to address key
questions crossing the physical sciences-life sciences/biomedical interface. In particular,
the conference will feature sessions focusing on the development and application of novel
and state-of-the-art computational tools and technology for solving major problems in the
life and biomedical sciences.

Topics will include advances in molecular dynamics simulation of enzymes; computational
approaches to studying the interaction of drugs, drug transporters and signaling enzymes
with lipid membranes; simulation of protein-protein interaction and multi-protein complex
enzymatic systems; computational study of signaling pathways; new techniques in
computational drug discovery as they apply to enzyme reactivity and dynamics; simulation
of allosteric interactions; advances in multi-scale modeling; new techniques for direct
simulation of reactivity in biological systems; and the impact of technological advances in
computer hardware and software on the field of chemical biology.

The conference will feature lectures by established leaders in the fields, as well as encouraging
young and talented researchers to present both challenging questions and new ideas for
solving them. The aim is to encourage a collegial atmosphere to promote stimulating and
insightful discussion while enjoying the beauty of tropical Cairns, Australia.
