Lipinski, Adjunct Senior Research Fellow, Pfizer Global R&D, Groton Labs (retired). Dr. Lipinski will speak on Technical and people disconnects hindering knowledge exchange between chemistry and biology. The tentative date for this symposium is Sunday, March 28, 2004. You are invited to submit an abstract to help complete the symposium! > From a previous announcement: Theme: Most life-science research organizations have information systems for sequence data and for compound data. This symposium will explore what is being done to bridge these two types of systems and provide an integrated view that facilitates faster compound discovery. We welcome talks about information systems in production, development, or planning. You can even talk about what you wish you could build if you could... Here are the details: - The best way to submit an abstract is on-line using OASYS(http://oasys.acs.org/) - Please e-mail or call me if you have trouble with OASYS. - The deadline for submissions is 1 December 2003. (You can submit an abstract now and then make changes until 1 December.) - Target presentation length is 20 minutes, with 5 minutes for questions. Please let me know if you need more time. - We especially welcome presentations from research organizations working with bioinformatics and cheminformatics. - When planning your presentation, consider a back-up person from your organization who could deliver your talk if for any reason you cannot make it to the meeting. Questions are welcome! Regards, Mitch 801 569 1390 ===== Mitchell Miller, Ph.D. Cheminformatics Consultant ChemMitch!at!yahoo.com __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
