The sponsors are: National Science Foundation and State University of New York at Stony Brook. The conference is organized by Ilya Vakser (SUNY Stony Brook) and Sandor Vajda (Boston University). PROGRAM topics: PROTEIN-PROTEIN DOCKING (structure prediction and binding simulation) ENERGETICS AND PROTEIN STRUCTURE-FUNCTION RELATIONSHIPS (energy landscapes, stability of complexes, functional assignment of protein structures, binding site prediction) MACROMOLECULAR ASSEMBLIES AND MEMBRANE PROTEINS IDENTIFICATION OF INTERACTIONS AND PATHWAYS DISCUSSION: New directions at CAPRI and further developments Tentative (incomplete) list of speakers: Ruben Abagyan, Scripps Institute David Baker, University of Washington Carlos Camacho, Boston University Adam Godzik, Burnham Institute Barry Honig, Columbia University Joel Janin, Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique Robert Jernigan, Iowa State University Olivier Lichtarge, Baylor College of Medicine Garland Marshall, Washington University Sergei Maslov, Brookhaven National Laboratory Andrew McCammon, University of California San Diego John Moult, CARB, University of Maryland Ruth Nussinov, National Cancer Institute Arthur Olson, Scripps Institute Jeffrey Skolnick, University at Buffalo Michael Sternberg, Imperial College London Lynn Ten Eyck, San Diego Supercomputer Center Andrei Tovchigrechko, SUNY Stony Brook Harel Weinstein, Weill Medical College of Cornell University Zhiping Weng, Boston University Shoshana Wodak, University Libre de Bruxelles Peter Wolynes, University of California San Diego Willy Wriggers, University of Texas Health Science Center (additional speakers will be selected based on participants applications) ------------- PARTICIPATION The number of participants is limited to 100. In selecting participants, the preference will be given to those who would have a presentation on the subject of the conference. If you would like to attend the conference, please submit a request as soon as possible, by e-mail only, to Ilya Vakser (vakser@ams.stonybrook.edu) or Sandor Vajda (vajda@enga.bu.edu). Include a brief (a few sentences) description of your research, your full affiliation, position (faculty, postdoc, student, etc.), address (email and regular), and the day-time phone number. If you would like to give a talk or present a poster, please include a half-page abstract. We will start contacting prospective participants after April 27 to let them know whether their application is accepted. If your application is accepted, we will communicate with you regarding the details of registration, accommodation, and travel. The early registration fee for the participants of the conference will be $250 ($150 for postdocs and students). Limited funds are available to support the participation of postdocs and students. The postdocs and students, who wish to be considered for the financial assistance, should indicate this in their application. The assistance will be provided in the form of reimbursement of travel expenses, after the conference. The details of the conference will be posted at the conference web site, http://reco3.ams.stonybrook.edu/conference2003, which will be regularly updated. --- .
