Call For Papers The Chemical Structure Association Trust and the Molecular Graphics and Modelling Society announce their Third Joint Sheffield Conference on Chemoinformatics. The conference will be held in The Octagon Centre and Tapton Hall of Residence, University of Sheffield, UK, > from 21st to 23rd April 2004. Offers of papers are welcomed in all aspects of chemoinformatics. Possible topics include (but are not limited to): * High-Throughput Screening including: assay QC and its influence on data mining; design of screening collections; systems based design * Virtual Screening including: docking and pharmacophore analysis; similarity methods; clustering * Computational Methods for Lead Identification and Optimisation including: structure-activity methods; structure-based design * New Algorithms and Technologies including: machine learning algorithms; data handling and visualisation * Case histories incorporating any of the above Authors wishing to submit a paper for consideration should send a title and abstract to Val Gillet (v.gillet~at~sheffield.ac.uk) by 31st October 2003. Submissions will be selected as either oral contributions or posters by the Organising Committee. In selecting papers for oral presentation we will seek to achieve a balance between new methodologies and successful applications of methods. Further details of the conference and registration information will follow later in the year and will be posted at cisrg.shef.ac.uk/shef2004.
