The Worldwide Protein Data Bank (wwPDB; wwpdb.org) is organising a scientific
symposium in Cold Spring Harbor this autumn to celebrate the 40th anniversary
of the inception of the PDB and the many scientific contributions it archives.
The meeting ("PDB40") will kick off with an evening reception and plenary
session on Friday 28 October and conclude after lunch the following Sunday.
For details and registration, please see the meeting website at:
http://meetings.cshl.edu/meetings/pdb40.shtml
The program will showcase the scientific impact made by structural biology
during the past 40 years with a distinguished panel of scientists who have
been instrumental in the development of the PDB and structural biology. A list
of all confirmed speakers and the titles of their presentations is now on the
website.
There are limited funds available to help a number of students and
early-career scientists to attend PDB40. To apply for an award, please follow
the instructions on the website. Applications are due by August 1, 2011.
We hope to see many of you at the symposium!
On behalf of wwPDB,
--Gerard
