Wellcome Trust meeting on
Therapeutic applications of computational chemistry and biology (TACBAC)
WT Conference Centre, near Cambridge (UK)
12-14 March 2012
https://registration.hinxton.wellcome.ac.uk/display_info.asp?id=263
The conference will take place at the WT Conference Centre, near
Cambridge (UK) on the 12-14 March 2012. This conference will bring
together leading researchers investigating computational chemistry and
biology techniques as applied to advancing our ability to predict,
diagnose and modulate human disease. This broad and multidisciplinary
meeting will explore the major challenges in drug discovery and
development where innovation in computational approaches and tools can
really make a significant and tangible contribution towards novel
treatments.
Each of the sessions, which progress from identifying disease mechanisms
to implementing new therapeutic and diagnostic approaches in the clinic,
will bring together experts in both the biomedical and the computational
aspects of the topic under discussion.
Session topics
* Clinical implications of individual genomes
* Metabolism and biomarkers
* Computational systems biology
* Discovery of chemical probes
* Modelling xenobiotic metabolism
