CFP, Bursary Awards, Drug Discovery & Development

I just wanted to remind both senior researchers and young investigators
that the deadline for abstracts submissions and applications for Bursary
Awards for the Autumn Community of Practice Meetings on Drug
Discovery & Development (14-17 October, Bryn Mawr) is 31 July 2008.

The InnovationWell program will be covering topics in systems biology,
computational biology, knowledge management, translational medicine,
metabolomics, and predictive toxicology. The eCheminfo program will be
covering topics in drug discovery informatics.

Abstracts (300-500 words) should be submitted to innovationwell -[at]-
douglasconnect.com or echeminfo -[at]- douglasconnect.com by 31 July
2008, and be accompanied by a short biography of the presenting author
(300-500 words). Abstracts approved by the scientific organizing
committee will be selected for scheduling on the conference program and
in meeting poster sessions. Authors will be notified of acceptance as
soon as a review of submitted materials takes place and at the latest by
15 August 2008.

Bursary Award
Bursary Awards will be used to support the attendance of a selection of
academic young investigators at the meeting and workshops. Applicants
can be working in any area of research related to drug discovery &
development at the postdoctoral, graduate student and senior
undergraduate levels.

To apply for the bursary please send an email with a) your abstract and
biography (300-500 words each), b) your CV of 1-2 pages, c) a short
description of your interests and career motivations(300-500 words) to
innovationwell -[at]- douglasconnect.com or echeminfo -[at]-
douglasconnect.com by 31 July 2008.

The recipients of the bursary awards will be selected based
on an evaluation of the quality and innovation of the described research
and the potential positive impact of attendance at the meeting on their
research and career progress. Authors will be notified of acceptance by
15 August 2008.

We gratefully acknowledge the sponsorship support of the Chemical
Computing Group, Merck Research Laboratories, SimBioSys, Tibotec, Tripos
and MEDIT.
