 1st Call for papers
 The Visualization and Interpretation of Computational Models
 ============================================================
 There are many different approaches available for modeling
 chemical data. Biological activities can be estimated using a
 number of approaches such as numerical modeling, pharmacophore
 construction or structural comparisons. The interaction of small
 molecules to binding sites can be described using docking models,
 shape comparisons or pharmacophores. Physico-chemical
 properties can be estimated using a variety of techniques.
 All these problems share one common and often unresolved
 issue. Whatever the model is teaching us about the system in
 question must be communicated to the clients of the model.
 This symposium will focus on methods that have been developed to aid
 in the interpretation of models of all types common in
 Computational Chemistry. The symposium will not discuss new
 modeling techniques, but will focus on methods that have been devised
 to extract the maximum information from the models and communicate
 that information to clients.
 Papers are invited that cover issues on
 *	Visualization of Modeling Data
 *	Interpretation of Modeling Data
 *	Communication of knowledge from the model to clients
       (e.g. chemists, biologists etc)
 The organizers are Andrew Smellie, Anton Filikov and
 Rocio Palma of Arqule Inc.
