Applications of Quantum Mechanics in Computational Biochemistry


We are organising a Web-based conference session for May 2005 on the eCheminfo Community of Practice (http://echeminfo.com/) on Applications of Quantum Mechanics in Computational Biochemistry, co-chaired by Alessandro Curioni (IBM Zurich) and Lance Westerhoff (QuantumBio)

Invited speakers include Ning Yu (Pennsylvania State University), Edward Brothers (Rice University), Kaushik Raha (UCSF) and Alessandro Curioni (IBM Zurich)

The session will involve seminars and discussions with the invited speakers, a poster session and a Web-based and conference call discussion. 

Presentations will open on the eCheminfo Web site on the 9 May for a two week period of review and discussion and a conference call with the panel of presenters for Q&A.

SignUp for eCheminfo and registration for this session and other eCheminfo meetings is available through http://eCheminfo.com/


Posters
All meeting registrants are eligible to submit a Conference Poster. Attendees may view and discuss the Posters and leave messages for the authors on the Web site. Poster Abstracts (of ca. 300 words) with Title, Institution, Authors and Contact Information should be submitted for consideration to echeminfo at douglasconnect.com Abstracts should be submitted by 20 April 2005, and Posters submitted by 30 April 2005.  Conference Posters can be presented as HTML, pdf, Powerpoint or Word documents.

This QM program will be continued at our Autumn eCheminfo meeting in Philadelphia in October and at our European meeting in Switzerland in November; exceptional contributions will be considered for inclusion in these meetings.
