Preliminary Meeting
Announcement Quantative Challenges in the Post Genomic Sequence
Era: A Workshop and Symposium, January 11-15, 2000 Sponsored
by: The Burroughs Wellcome Fund

DEADLINES: Contributed Talks: August 16, 1999 Posters: November
1, 1999
CONFERENCE VISION:
Completion of the human genome sequencing project will mark a
change in the focus of quantitative studies of genomic information
from the gathering and archiving of genomic data to its analysis
and use in prediction and discovery. This symposium is intended
to provide an international forum for provocative discussions
debating the current state-of-the-art and envisioning future
directions for the application of quantitative science to sequence-to-function
paradigms in biology. The workshop will target the training and
exposure of developing interdisciplinary scientists to the many
new challenges beyond genome sequencing, and to varied approaches
to pursuing scientific careers at the interfaces between the
physical, chemical, and computational sciences and the biological
sciences.
SYMPOSIUM:
1/13/00 - Folding the Genome(s)-Sequence to Structure and Beyond
(Presenters: David Eisenberg, Wayne Hendrickson, Sung-Hou Kim,
Gaetano Montelione, Greg Petsko, Chris Sander, Shoshana Wodak)
1/14/00 - Understanding the Genome Structure(s) and Their Connection
to Function (Presenters: William Eaton, Alan Fersht, Susan Marqusee,
John Moult, Peter Wolynes)
1/15/00 - Exploring Tomorrow's Landscape-From Atomic Details
to Molecular Networks (Presenters: Steven Chu, Chris Dobson,
Harry Gray, Klaus Schulten)
WORKSHOP:
1/11/00 - Exploring Genomic Sequence to Function (Presenters:
Lorena Beese, Tracy Handel, Andrej Sali)
1/12/00 - Understanding the Fundamentals of Structure, Function,
and Folding (Presenters: Robert Dickson, Martin Gruebele, Leslie
Kuhn, Vijay Pande, Douglas Tobias)
