Dear Colleagues, We hope that you are planning to attend the International Conference on Structural Genomics 2011, which will be held in Toronto, Canada on May 10-14, 2011. The meeting is designed to serve as a forum to discuss the most recent developments in structural genomics, structural/chemical biology, and their impact on research in biology, medicine and disease. There are many speaking slots still open that will be chosen from submitted poster abstracts. We invite you to submit your abstract by February 28, 2011. Please visit http://www.icsg2011.org for ICSG 2011 meeting and workshop registration details and to submit your abstract. In addition to the main ICSG meeting, there will be a whole day of free concurrent satellite workshops (May 10, 2011), including: Small Molecule Screening Workshop- This hands-on workshop will allow participants to screen a protein of their choice for binding of selected compounds, using thermal shift assays. Eukaryotic Gene Expression Systems Workshop - This workshop will provide participants with a detailed understanding of the state-of-the-art for production of eukaryotic proteins destined for biochemical, biophysical, and structural analyses. iSee: Interactive 3D Documents for the Dissemination of Structural Biology This hands-on workshop will familiarize participants with the iSEE 3D graphical software which allows interactive viewing of 3 dimensional molecular structures and is currently used by journals such as Nature Structural & Molecular Biology and PLoS Biology and PLoS ONE. Workshop on NMR Methods for Structural Biology- This workshop will survey technologies for structure/function investigations of proteins, developed in (or in collaboration with) structural genomics projects, that are ready for widespread use by the wider biological community. Phenix Crystallography Software Workshop This workshop will introduce the PHENIX software for macromolecular structure determination and the core algorithms that it uses. It will provide hands-on tutorials for crystallographers of all levels. We hope to see you there!
