9415393 Smith Description: This regional project provides support for the participation of five U.S. scientists in the fourth international Symposium and Workshop on Protein Structure-Function, planned for January 1995, Karachi, Pakistan. The U.S. team will be headed by David Smith, professor of medicinal chemistry at Purdue University. The Pakistani organizer is Zafar Zaidi of the HEJ Postgraduate Institute of Chemistry at the University of Karachi. Past symposia have achieved high levels of success. They have attracted leading international protein chemists including Nobel Laureates and have been effective in developing contacts that often lead to collaborations among scientists from over a dozen countries. Proceedings from all the symposia have been published. The six day symposium will be followed by a one week workshop on protein structure elucidation and will provide substantial training for research fellows, members of the teaching faculty, and students from Pakistan and neighboring countries. Scope: This is a significant meeting on an important topic in basic science that has many direct applications in health and agriculture. These gatherings do much to catalyze the development of biochemistry in Pakistan and South Asia, and they provide a unique training opportunity for budding young scientists in the region. The host institute has excellent facilities for research in this area of analytical biochemistry. The Karachi area is well suited due to the concentration there of the pharmaceutical and natural medicines industries. NSF funds will be used to support the U.S. participants and partial support for a few young scientists from neighboring countries in South Asia. ***

小行星9415393 产品描述：该区域项目为五名美国科学家参加计划于1995年1月在巴基斯坦卡拉奇举行的第四届蛋白质结构-功能国际研讨会和讲习班提供支助。 美国研究小组将由普渡大学药物化学教授大卫史密斯领导。 巴基斯坦的组织者是卡拉奇大学HEJ化学研究生院的Zafar Zaidi。 过去的研讨会取得了很大的成功。 他们有 吸引了包括诺贝尔化学奖获得者 获奖者，并一直有效地发展联系，往往导致来自十几个国家的科学家之间的合作。 所有研讨会的记录都是 公开. 在为期6天的研讨会之后，将举行为期一周的蛋白质结构解析研讨会，并将为来自巴基斯坦和邻国的研究人员、教师和学生提供实质性培训。 范围：这是一次重要的会议，讨论基础科学的一个重要主题，该主题在卫生和农业方面有许多直接应用。 这些聚会在很大程度上促进了 巴基斯坦和南亚的生物化学发展， 为该地区初露头角的年轻科学家提供了一个独特的培训机会。 东道研究所在分析生物化学这一领域拥有优良的研究设施。 卡拉奇地区非常适合，因为那里集中了制药和天然药物行业。 NSF的资金将用于支持美国的参与者， 部分支持来自南亚邻国的一些年轻科学家。 ***
