If there is only one meeting you can participate this year, EuroQSAR 2004
is it.
A heritage event with 25 year history, this year's EuroQSAR is unique in
that it will also celebrate the 40th anniversary of QSAR. The monumental
Hansch-Fujita paper of 1964 (one of the most cited papers) is generally
accepted as the beginning of QSAR. Prof. Corwin Hansch has agreed to give
the opening lecture entitled "40 Years with QSAR". The social program
takes advantage of the unique aspects of the venue, Istanbul, excursion
with cruise at Bosporus and cultural evening with dinner, all included as
part of the registration.
The organizing committee is putting together a strong technical program
under the session headings: QSAR, Chemical Properties (QSPR), Chemistry
and Biology Interface, Combinatorial Chemistry, Computer Aided Drug
Design, and a surprise new additional session entitled "Emerging
Technologies" that will include very new ideas and approaches in the field
that has not been published yet.
