This symposium will discuss research progress in the Theory Center's Parallel Processing Resource for Biomedical Scientists, as well as recent advances in computational chemistry and polypeptide modeling. Among the confirmed speakers are: Dr. Jan Hermans, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill Dr. Peter Kollman, University of California at San Francisco Dr. Andrew McCammon, University of Houston Dr. Harold Scheraga, Cornell University Dr. Klaus Schulten, University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign Dr. David Shalloway, Cornell University We solicit participation in a poster session for the symposium. Posters should describe research in parallel computation, computational chemistry and polypeptide modeling, and improvement of computational methodologies for molecular structure research. We also solicit participation in a video theatre describing same. To apply for a poster session and/or video theatre presentation, please send abstract of research to cal@tc.cornell.edu by March 30. In conjunction with the symposium, the Theory Center will conduct during May 5-7, a training workshop on using the KSR1 parallel computer. The symposium is free; a fee will be charged for the training workshop.
