Dear Colleague, This letter is to inform you of a significant post-genomics conference at the International Manchester Convention Centre, 1-3rd September 2004. It is the second major conference hosted by the Consortium for Post-Genome Sciences and it focuses on "Genome to Systems" with a programme of 5 Plenary lectures, and 10 academic sessions, each with 4 excellent speakers. Plenarys from...... Tom Blundell Cambridge Ruedi Aebersold Institute for Systems Biology, Seattle Stuart Kim Stanford Denis Noble Oxford Laszlo Barabasy, Notre Dame Sessions on..... High-Throughput Structural Biology New Biosensor Technologies and Instrumental Platforms Network and Systems Biology Gene-Environment Interactions High-Throughput Structural Genomics Structural Genomics Metabolomics Informatics for Post-Genomic Integration Quantitative Proteomics Protein Dynamics and Post-Translational Modifications Pharmacogenetics and Healthcare We also have a major suppliers exhibition, a Technology Showcase and Technology ShopWindow sessions, to help evangelise the technology within the field. The registration fee is LOW to make it accessible to researchers at all levels, but I expect that it would interest people mainly in Europe. We think it offers the an excellent opportunity to hear from major international authorities about the rapidly developing fields of post-genomic technology, its scientific applications and the move to system-wide overviews. Full programme details can be found at <www.postgenomeconsortium.com>. The speaker lists are actively under review so keep checking the site for the latest situation......
