Protein Structure and Function,Second U.S. Pakistan Conference, Karachi, Pakistan, December 1989

说明：资助五名美国科学家参加将于1989年12月4日至8日在巴基斯坦卡拉奇举行的“第二届蛋白质结构与功能国际研讨会”。会议之后是一个为期十天的研讨会，让与会者有动手经验的氨基酸分析仪，高效液相色谱仪和肽测序仪。会议的组织者是卡拉奇大学HEJ化学研究所的Zafar Zaidi博士，并得到了该研究所联合主任Salimuzzaman Siddiqui博士和Atta-ur-Rahman博士两位著名化学家的支持。预计将有英国、德国、法国、意大利、日本、印度、菲律宾、约旦、埃及和摩洛哥以及美国和巴基斯坦参加，就像1988年1月举行的第一次会议一样。这些会议为发展中国家的科学家在推进蛋白质化学科学和用于蛋白质分析的现代实验技术方面提供了相当大的帮助。它们提供了交流资料和开展实地联合研究活动的机会。会议之后的实验室会议将讨论精密分析设备的使用和维护以及数据解释。HEJ研究所是巴基斯坦领先的化学研究中心，也是南亚最好的中心之一，设备和人员都非常齐全。它非常适合举办会议和随后的实验室研讨会。这个项目符合发展中国家科学计划的目标。

Description: Support is provided for participation by five U.S. scientists in the "Second international Symposium and Workshop on Protein Structure and Function," to be held in Karachi, Pakistan, December 4 to 8, 1989. The conference is to be followed by a ten-day workshop for attendees to have hands-on experience with amino acid analyzers, HPLC chromatographs, and peptide sequencers. The conference organizer is Dr. Zafar Zaidi of the HEJ Research Institute of Chemistry at University of Karachi, with support from two eminent chemists, Dr. Salimuzzaman Siddiqui, and Dr. Atta-ur-Rahman, Co-directors of the Institute. Participation is expected to be from the UK, Germany, France, Italy, Japan, India, Phillipines, Jordan, Egypt, and Morocco as well as from the U.S. and Pakistan, as was the case in the first conference held in January 1988, Scope: These conferences provide considerable assistance to scientists in developing countries in the advancing science of protein chemistry and in the modern experimental techniques used for protein analysis. They provide an opportunity for exchange of information and for developing joint research activities in the field. The use and maintenance of sophisticated analytical equipment and data interpretation is covered in the laboratory sessions following the conference. The HEJ Institute is Pakistan's leading center for chemical research, and one of South Asia's best, and is very well equipped and staffed. It is quite suitable for hosting the conference and the laboratory workshop that follows. This project meets the objectives of the Science in Developing Countries Program.
