Membrane Proteins:

Structure and Function

Registration now CLOSED

Participants: Talks have been selected now, so unless you have heard from us directly, you should assume that you are presenting a poster.

The conference "Membrane Proteins: Structure and Function" will take place Wednesday 6th to Friday 8th April 2011. The aim of the conference is to discuss recent structural and functional developments of membrane proteins in experimental and computational contexts. Topics covered will include ligand-gated ion channels, transporters, GPCRs and viral proteins and should be of interest to members of the pharmaceutical industry as well as those in academia. There will be opportunities for oral and poster presentations. Contributions from students and postdocs are particularly welcome. So far the confirmed list of speakers is as follows:-

• Isabel Bermudez (Brookes University)
• Geoff Chang (Scripps)
• Pierre-Jean Corringer (Pasteur Inst)
• Ron Dror (DE Shaw Research)
• Raimund Dutzler (Zurich)
• Lucy Forrest (MPI, Frankfurt)
• So Iwata (Imperial & Diamond)
• David Jane (University of Bristol)
• Jette Kastrup (Copenhagen)
• Antoinette Killian (Utrecht)
• Andreas Klamt (Cosmologic)
• Brian Kobilka (stanford)*
• Richard Law (Evotec)
• Jason Schnell (Oxford)
• Lucia Sivilotti (UCL)
• Chris Tate (MRC, Cambridge)
• Simon Ward (University of Sussex)

*Unfortunately Brian has injured his back rather badly and cannot make this meeting.
