Dear CCL'lers,
I would like to invite you to a one-day symposium taking place in
Cambridge/UK on 7 December 2004 on
"New Horizons to Molecular Informatics"
The (slightly abstract) text from the conference brochure: "This
symposium addresses how we can best create, manipulate and integrate
molecular data to deepen our understanding of molecules and their
properties and to allow novel in-silico experimentation. In
particular, speakers will discuss optimising the chances of discovery
resulting from applications of informatics technologies."
To give a few keywords: in-silico metabolic pathways, virtual
screening, bioinformatics and society, computer-aided drug discovery
to improve attrition rates, representation of chemical information
(CML/XML) and applications of electronic notebooks will be discussed.
Speakers include Johann Gasteiger (University of Erlangen, Germany),
Peter Willett (University of Sheffield, England), Michael Ashburner
(European Bioinformatics Institute, Cambridge, England), Jonathan
Mason (Pfizer Global Research & Development), Peter Murray-Rust
(University of Cambridge, England) and Allan Ferguson (Merck &
Co.).
More information can be found at
http://www.mmsconferencing.com/informatics.html and the
complete
program can be downloaded from

For those interested and staying overnight I can also offer a guided
tour through the historical pubs of Cambridge after the symposium.
Best wishes,
Andreas
