Save the date! 19th Annual Texas Protein Folders March 25-27, 2011
Save the date! We are sponsoring the 19th annual Texas Protein Folders Meeting next year and we couldn’t be more excited about it.
Registration deadline March 18th 2011
Keynote Speakers:
Joshua Wand, University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine
The Wand lab probes the relationships between protein structure, dynamics, and function, often relying on novel NMR methods developed in house, such as high pressure NMR, sparse sampling methods, NMR relaxation methods, and developing approaches to investigate large soluble proteins, unstable proteins, and membrane proteins by liquid NMR methods.
Vijay Pande, Stanford University,
The Pande lab uses physical simulation and Bayesian statistics / machine learning techniques to investigate protein folding at long time scales with the goal of predicting all possible experimental observables. In related projects, the Pande lab uses computational tools to probe the structure and stability of misfolded protein aggregates and small molecule binding / drug efficacy.
The meeting is chaired this year by Dr. Sarah Bondos from Texas A&M University.
If you are in the world of proteins and live in Texas, it is certainly the meeting for you.
