The Analytical and Surface Chemistry program and the Office of Multidisciplinary Activities provides support for the Symposium on Bioinformatics held at the ACS National Meeting in San Francisco March 26-31, 2000. The symposium is organized by Dr. Robert Kennedy of the University of Florida for the American Chemical Society. Bioinformatics refers to the use of computer searching and modeling to maximize utility of database information. It is particularly relevant to the analytical chemistry community where large volumes of data are being generated on protein sequences, signal transduction networks and genomic sequences. This is a significant, emerging area of scientific endeavor. The success of Bioinformatics will help integrate multiple disciplines including analytical chemistry, biology, biochemistry, biotechnology and computing. The explosive growth in high throughput analytical measurements has resulted in correspondingly large data bases of information. It is imperative that effective means of making correlations and identifications with this data are developed.The purpose of the symposium is to bring together scientists to promote an understanding of this emerging field, to promote collaborations and chart future directions. The symposium speakers include members from academia, the biotechnology industry, the chemical industry and manufacturers.

分析和表面化学计划和多学科活动办公室为2000年3月26日至31日在旧金山弗朗西斯科举行的ACS全国会议上举行的生物信息学研讨会提供支持。 研讨会是由佛罗里达大学的罗伯特·肯尼迪博士为美国化学学会组织的。 生物信息学是指使用计算机搜索和建模，以最大限度地利用数据库信息。 它与分析化学界特别相关，在分析化学界，正在生成关于蛋白质序列、信号转导网络和基因组序列的大量数据。 这是一个重要的、新兴的奋进。 生物信息学的成功将有助于整合多个学科，包括分析化学，生物学，生物化学，生物技术和计算。 高通量分析测量的爆炸性增长导致了相应的大数据库信息。 当务之急是开发出与这些数据进行关联和识别的有效手段。研讨会的目的是将科学家聚集在一起，促进对这一新兴领域的理解，促进合作，并规划未来的方向。 研讨会的讲者包括来自学术界、生物技术行业、化学行业和制造商的成员。
