Dear Colleagues,
We invite you to attend the Zing conference on Computational Chemical Biology
Conference
(http://www.zingconferences.com/conferences/computational-chemical-biology/)
that myself
and Prof. Ian Gould are chairing. The meeting will take place at the Pullman
Cairns
International Hotel from 6th 9th August 2015.
Sponsored by Takeda, DE Gruyter, Royal Society of Chemistry and OpenEye.
We have a number of exciting plenary and invited speakers lined up including a
number of
young and dynamic innovators from both academia and industry:
Prof. Darrin York (Rutgers)
Prof. Jonathan Essex (Southampton)
Prof. Qiang Cui (Wisconsin)
Dr. Felice Lightstone (LLNL)
Dr. Zoe Cournia (BRFA Athens)
Prof. Ron Dror (Stanford)
Dr. Scott Le Grand (NVIDIA Fellow)
Dr. Andy Jennings (Takeda)
Prof. Patricia Jennings (UCSD)
Prof. Erik Lindahl (KTH Stockholm)
Prof. Steven Schwartz (Arizona)
Prof. Jeremy Tame (Yokohama)
Dr. Elizabeth Brunk (UCSD)
Prof. Oscar Ces (Imperial College)
Prof. Laura Barter (Imperial College)
Prof. Dave Winkler (CSIRO)
Prof. Adrian Roitberg (UFL)
Prof. David Minh (IIT)
Prof. Thomas Cheatham (Utah)
Prof. Alexey Onufriev (Virginia Tech)
Prof. David Mobley (UCI)
Dr. Tom Darden (OpenEye)
Dr. Paul Hawkins (OpenEye)
The conference will focus on multidisciplinary research that leverages computer
simulation to
address key questions crossing the physical sciences-life sciences/biomedical
interface. In
particular, the conference will feature sessions focusing on the development and
application of
novel and state-of-the-art computational tools and technology for solving major
problems in
the life and biomedical sciences.
Topics will include advances in molecular dynamics simulation of enzymes;
computational
approaches to studying the interaction of drugs, drug transporters and signaling
enzymes with
lipid membranes; simulation of protein-protein interaction and multi-protein
complex
enzymatic systems; computational study of signaling pathways; new techniques in
computational drug discovery as they apply to enzyme reactivity and dynamics;
simulation of
allosteric interactions; advances in multi-scale modeling; new techniques for
direct simulation
of reactivity in biological systems; and the impact of technological advances in
computer
hardware and software on the field of chemical biology.
The conference will feature lectures by established leaders in the fields, as
well as a specific
focus on encouraging young and talented researchers to present both challenging
questions
and new ideas for solving them. The aim is to encourage a collegial atmosphere
to promote
stimulating and insightful discussion while enjoying the beauty of tropical
Cairns, Australia.
Deadlines for submissions is 1st June 2015 for both Oral and poster abstracts.
