[Rd] third virtual conference on genomics and bioinformatics
Hello All The third virtual conference on genomics and bioinformatics will host by North Dakota State University September 16-19, 2003 More details http://www.ndsu.edu/virtual-genomics/conference_2003.htm Call for papers and 2002 accepted papers http://www.ndsu.edu/virtual-genomics/papers_2003.htm Third Virtual Conference on Genomics and Bioinformatics: September 16-19, 2003 Advances in sequence analysis, transcriptional profiling, protein structural elucidation and well other genomic techniques are producing an overwhelming accumulation of data and the shift in the way biological research is conducted. As new disciplines are integrated, the "Virtual Conferences on Genomics and Bioinformatics" was develop as a way to provide an advanced collaborative environment for the exchange and discussion of information related to innovations of the post-genomic era. Since 2001 the Virtual Conferences is featuring high profile researchers and educators working actively in the development of new applications to understand complex biological systems. Without registration fees, and using the Access Grid technology and live video streaming the 2002 Virtual Conference is broadcast simultaneously to more 2000 researchers in 40 countries and 33 states within the US. The main goals of the Virtual Conference in Genomics and Bioinformatics: - Transcend geographical and economical barriers to the exchange of ideas that facilitates the interaction and collaboration among scientists and educators around the world. - Address the benefits and limitations of the newest developments in post-genomic technologies. - Explore the social and ethical implications of genomic and bioinformatic research. - Establish new ways to introduce high school community about today's multidisciplinary science. 2003 VCGB Topics and Speakers (More speakers TBA) Computational Chemistry and Structural Genomics Kim Baldrigde, San Diego Supercomputer Center.
