QSAR - Genomics, Proteomics and Bioinformatics for Medicine

Dear Colleagues,

Second International Conference "Genomics, Proteomics and Bioinformatics for
Medicine" (GPBM-2004), will be held on July 14-19, 2004.

The major topics of GPBM-2004 are given below:

1. Genomics

1.1. Genome individuality and human genotyping.
1.2. SNPs in diagnostics of human diseases.
1.3. Complete microbial genomes and host-pathogen interactions.

2. Proteomics

2.1. Human proteome index: myth or reality?
2.2. Serum biomarkers as diagnosticums of human diseases.
2.3. Proteomics as a basis for new drug targets validation.

3. Bioinformatics

3.1. Bioinformatics as a basis for integrative computational biology.
3.2. Computer-aided drug discovery.
3.3. Bioinformatics application of grids and clusters.

Special workshops will be held in the framework of the conference:

4.1. Peptidomics.
4.2. Cytochromes P450 superfamily.
4.3. ISTC Special Session.
4.4. Emerging technologies.

More details are available on the web site:

The Conference will take place on a board of the comfortable vessel going
along the Russian rivers and canals from Moscow to Ples and back.

Such mode of the scientific meeting provide several advantages to the
participants:

(1) High scientific level & multidisciplinary programme due to the
participation of prominent scientists as invited speakers;

(2) Oral talks by all participants whose abstracts will be accepted;

(3) Participants have a possibility for communication & discussions for 24
hours per day;

(4) Participants and accompanying persons will merge scientific and
touristic issues visiting beautiful places of Russian nature and history
(3-4 hours excursions every day).

If you are interested to take part in the Conference, please, send your
registration form to the Organizing Committee as soon as possible.

Looking forward to hear from you soon and to meet you at the conference.

Yours sincerely,

Vladimir Poroikov, Prof. Dr.
