The focus of the eCheminfo Autumn 2005 InterAction Meetings on Applications of Cheminformatics & Chemical Modelling to Drug Discovery is to bring together world-class researchers working in the drug discovery field, and have them present recent cutting-edge research results. The meetings are intended to bring together researchers in both industry, government and academia and on an international basis. Both US and European meetings will be held in key pharma and life science centers of activity in the US and Europe. The emphasis of these community of practice meetings and format is on communication, discussion and networking, leading to new opportunities, collaborations and best practices.
All sessions will involve presentations from leading invited researchers, roundtable discussions, and poster sessions and software demonstrations running on a local wireless network. All presentations from both meetings will be available to registrants for remote access through the eCheminfo website. SignUp and registration for the meetings can be completed through the eCheminfo website.
