Dear colleagues, 

Abstract submission for Kazan Summer School in Chemoinformatics to be 
held July 6-9, 2015, is still possible. The deadline for abstract 
submission is April 1, 2015.

Summer School on Chemoinformatics is a regular event, aiming to create 
the conditions for training specialists of Chemoinformatics, as well as 
to create educational and scientific network of scientists, 
pharmaceutical and chemical industry representatives, IT specialists and 
software developers. In this school special attention will be paid to 
material design and new applications of chemoinformatics.

Scientific program of the School covers:
- Basics of chemoinformatics and QSAR approaches,
- Sources of chemical information, its storage and retrieval,
- SAR/QSAR/QSPR modeling,
- Structure-based drug design.

The program of the School includes:
-  Lectures by leading scientists devoted to different aspects of 
Chemoinformatics and computer-aided materials and drug design
-  Key-note research lectures 
-  Oral presentations of the School participants
-  Tutorials with modern software
-  Poster session
-  Contest for young scientists for the best poster and oral presentation
