Dear Colleague:
You and your colleagues are cordially invited to join us for the 14th
Annual Structural Biology Symposium to be held at the University of
Texas Medical Branch at Galveston on March 27th, 2009. The meeting is
organized by the Sealy Center for Structural Biology & Molecular
Biophysics and co-sponsored by the Keck Center for Computational &
Structural Biology. In previous years, over 300 scientists from the U.S.
and abroad, have participated in the annual event. The goal of the
symposia is to bring together leaders in all areas of structural biology
to present current topics. Following hurricane Ike, this year’s
Symposium has been scaled back to a single day event and will include
the following speakers:
Keynote Speaker:
James R. Williamson
The Scripps Research Institute
Michael Rosen, UT Southwestern, HHMI
Yizhi Jane Tao, Rice University
Marty Scholtz,Texas A&M
Marc Morais, UTMB at Galveston
C. S. Raman, UT Health Science Center Houston
Poster sessions and social events, included in the program, provide
ample opportunity for formal and informal discussions with the
speakers.Awards will be given to graduate students and post-docs for
best poster presentations. To insure maximum participation, the costs of
attending the symposium have been kept to a minimum. Reasonably priced
rooms have been reserved at the historic beachfront Hotel Galvez on
Galveston Island for symposium participants and meals are provided
on-site during the Symposium.
