Gordon Research Conference on Computational Aspects of Biomolecular NMR to be held May 6-11, 2001 in Barga, Italy

这项拨款为2001年5月6日至11日在意大利巴尔加的“Il Ciocco”会议中心举行的生物分子核磁共振计算方面的戈登研究会议提供部分支持。会议主席是博士。大卫·凯斯和迈克尔·尼尔吉斯。会议的目的是汇集在生物分子核磁共振前沿工作的科学家，促进前沿，出版前工作的自由交流，并为利用计算来解决该领域的难题建立方向。戈登会议提供了一种有价值的传播信息和思想的手段，这是通过通常的交流渠道，即在大型科学会议上发表出版物和演讲所无法实现的。这次会议是计划每两年举行一次的第二次会议。计算在生物分子核磁共振的几乎每个方面都起着至关重要的作用，从数据采集和分析到结构确定。为了反映该领域的全部广度，一个广泛的、多国的科学家代表从事实验和计算已经被召集起来。会议的中心主题将是实验、理论和计算的相互依存，以及计算对推进生物分子核磁共振前沿的贡献。会议将致力于结构和动态信息的新来源，计算机辅助分配，动态紊乱和结构异质性的处理，分子间相互作用和药物发现，以及核磁共振和结构基因组学。

Case, DavidMCB-0090186This grant provides partial support for the 2001 Gordon ResearchConference on Computational Aspects of Biomolecular NMR, to be held May 6-11, 2001, at theconference center "Il Ciocco", in Barga, Italy. The conference chairs are Drs. DavidCase and Michael Nilges. The purpose of the conference is to bring together scientistsworking at the forefront of biomolecular NMR, to foster the free exchange of cutting-edge,pre-publication work, and to establish directions for exploiting computation to solvedifficult problems in the field. Gordon Conferences provide a valuable means ofdisseminating information and ideas in a way that cannot be achieved through the usualchannels of communication, that is, publications and presentations at large scientificmeetings. This meeting is the second of what is intended to be a biannual conference.Computation plays a crucial role in virtually every aspect of biomolecular NMR, from dataacquisition and analysis to structure determination. In order to reflect the full breadthof the field, a broad, multinational representation of scientists engaged in bothexperiment and computation has been assembled. Central themes of the conference will bethe interdependence of experiment, theory, and computation, and the contributions thatcomputation can make to advancing the frontiers of biomolecular NMR. Sessions will bedevoted to new sources of structural and dynamical information, computer-aided assignment,treatment of dynamic disorder and structural heterogeneity, intermolecular interaction anddrug discovery, and NMR and structural genomics.
