Conference Themes and Aims
Structural Genomics promises to be one of the most important subjects in the post-genome sequencing era. The availability of completed genomes, in addition to recent advances in method for three-dimensional structure determination mean that structure data will be available for more proteins than ever before. As protein structure is central to almost all aspects of molecular biology and disease, Structural Genomics will have a great impact on the way we address biological problems.

This conference aims to discuss the major issues and developments related to Structural Genomics, including target selection, protein expression, functional genomics, structure determination and bioinformatics.

In addition to talks from a range of distinguished speakers, the conference will also have poster and commercial exhibitions.
