CCL: BDBDB2: Biological Diffusion and Brownian Dynamics Brainstorm 2

 Sent to CCL by: "Rebecca  Wade" [rebecca.wade ~ h-its.org]
 You are cordially invited to the second
  Biological Diffusion and Brownian Dynamics Brainstorm.
 which will take place on October 11-13, 2010.
 The goal of this workshop is to provide a forum for intensive discussions about
 the state-of-the-art in Brownian Dynamics simulations of biological
 macromolecules and related methodologies. Particular attention will be paid to
 the theoretical description of concentrated media, simulations in cell-like
 environments and in-vivo measurements of diffusion. Participants will include
 theoreticians and experimentalists. Speakers will be encouraged to present work
 in progress and discuss speculative ideas.  Topics include:
 molecular diffusion,  Diffusional association, Hydrodynamic interactions,
 Aggregation, oligomerization, and self-assembly, Macromolecular crowding,
  Macromolecular flexibility
 The meeting will take place at the Villa Bosch, Heidelberg, Germany, and, via
 video-conferencing, at the University of California, San Diego (UCSD). There
 will be live video-conferencing sessions each evening (Heidelberg)/morning (San
 Diego).
 Further information and registration can be found on our website:

 The deadline for registration and submitting abstracts is August 31, 2010.

 Mark Twain: "One thinks Heidelberg by day--with its surroundings-- is the
 last possibility of the beautiful; but when he sees Heidelberg by night, a
 fallen Milky Way, with that glittering railway constellation pinned to the
 border, he requires time to consider upon the verdict.". From  'A Tramp
