Fourth Joint Sheffield Conference on Chemoinformatics:
Second Call for  Papers
18th-20th June 2007
University of Sheffield
http://cisrg.shef.ac.uk/shef2007/

The Chemical Structure Association Trust and the Molecular Graphics and
Modelling Society announce their Fourth Joint Sheffield Conference on
Chemoinformatics.  The conference will be held in The Octagon Centre and
the Stephenson and Tapton Halls of Residence, University of Sheffield,
UK, from 18th-20th June 2007.

Offers of papers are welcomed in all aspects of chemoinformatics.
Possible topics include (but are not limited to):
 * High-Throughput Screening, including: assay quality control; design of
   screening collections; systems based design

 * Virtual Screening including, including: docking and pharmacophore
   analysis,  similarity and clustering methods; machine learning

 * Computational Methods for Lead Identification and Optimisation
   including: modelling and structure-activity methods; structure-based
   design; ADMET prediction

 * New Algorithms and Technologies including: data mining; searching
   methods; distributed processing; data handling and visualisation;

 * Case Histories, incorporating practical experience of any of the above

The programme will have space for ca. two dozen oral presentations, and
there will also be extensive opportunities for poster presentations.
Authors wishing to submit a paper should send a title and abstract
by 31st January 2007 to cheminf2007(0)sheffield.ac.uk ,
stating whether they wish to be considered for an oral or for a poster
presentation.

Submissions will be selected as either oral contributions or posters by
the Organising Committee, with notification of acceptance by 28th
February 2007.  In selecting papers for oral presentation, the Committee
will seek to achieve a balance between the various areas of the subject
and between new methodologies and successful applications of existing
techniques.

Preliminary details of the conference are available at
