Call for Abstracts – APBC2005 Special Interest Group Meeting on 3D Structural Bio-Informatics

In the post genome era today, study of structural and functional Biology plays an increasingly important role. Here we are pleased to announce 2005 Asia-Pacific Bioinformatics Conference (APBC2005) will have a 1-day meeting for the special interest group on 3D Structural Bio-Informatics (SIGStructure). SIGStructure aims to provide an opportunity for people to exchange research work in the important and fast growing field of 3D Bio-informatics. The meeting is designed for those researchers (biologists, mathematicians, geometricians, computer scientists and engineers, etc) who are interested in 3D Structural Biology.

A combination of plenary lectures, short presentations, and laptop sessions should provide a good anchor for a program in which researchers will be able to interact. We invite you to consider submitting abstracts. Detailed abstracts submitted will undergo a panel review process. Accepted abstracts will be published in the SIGStructure abstract book of APBC2005. Please use the template file attached for preparation of your submission.
Selected best detailed abstracts will be invited to submit their enhanced version for the possible publication with the Journal of BioInformatics and Computational Biology (http://www.worldscinet.com/jbcb/mkt/editorial.shtml).


Topics of the SIGStructure includes (but is not limited to)

  •  Protein Annotation,
  •  Protein Threading,
  •  Protein Fold Recognition,
  •  Geometric Representation and Processing in Nano-Bio Scale,
  •  Role of Geometry and of Energy in Protein Structure and Function,
  •  Secondary Structure, Super-secondary Structure, Motif, and Domain Assignment,
  •  Docking and Protein-Protein/Ligand Interaction,
  •  Protein Surface Modeling,
  •  Protein Simulation,
  •  Protein Visualization,
  •  Structural Databases,
  •  3D Data-mining, Pathway Information Literature Mining,
  •  3D Programming Modules,
  •  Structure-based Function Prediction,
  •  Membrane Protein Assembly,
