Conference: Protein Phosphorylation Workshop to be held December 2003 in Monterey, California

该奖项旨在支持学生、博士后研究员和年轻教师参加将于12月11日至14日在Asilomar会议中心举行的名为“蛋白质磷酸化研讨会”的研讨会。本次研讨会旨在汇集高度多样化的实验室和计算科学家，考虑如何发展跨学科的方法来理解蛋白激酶的结构和功能，以及如何将这些方法与先进的计算基础设施的发展相结合，以支持该领域的实验工作。本次会议的总体目标是解决数据库和计算资源如何支持实验研究的关键问题。显然，数据库和计算资源是我们研究基础设施的关键要素，但很少有人会说当前的资源满足当前实验室研究的需要。如何加强这些资源，以应对未来几年将开发的日益庞大的数据集和生物系统模型，这是一个迫切需要解决的悬而未决的问题。这次会议汇集了来自许多实验和计算领域的研究人员。它将为计算基础设施的新发展以及蛋白质激酶结构和功能的综合研究所需的新相互作用和合作提供种子。

This award is to support the attendance of students, post-doctoral fellows and young faculty at a workshop entitled "Protein Phosphorylation Workshop" to be held December 11-14 at the Asilomar Conference center. This workshop is intended to bring together a highly diverse group of laboratory and computational scientists to consider how to develop interdisciplinary approaches to understanding the structure and function of protein kinases and how to integrate these approaches with the development of advanced computational infrastructure to support experimental work in the area. The overall goal of this meeting is to address key questions about how databases and computational resources can support experimental research. Clearly, databases and computational resources are key elements of our research infrastructure, but few would say that current resources meet the needs of current laboratory research. How these resources can be enhanced to deal with the increasingly large datasets and biological systems models that will be developed in the next few years is an open question that urgently needs to be addressed. This meeting brings together researchers from many experimental and computational domains. It will act as a seed both for new developments in computational infrastructure, as well as for new interactions and collaborations needed for integrative research on the structure and function of protein kinases.
