The Royal Society of Chemistry 7 December - New Horizons in Molecular Informatics
How can we best create, manipulate and integrate molecular data to
deepen our understanding of molecules and their properties and to allow
novel in-silico experimentation? The main themes for this symposium are
the integration and analysis of data between chemical, biological and
pharmaceutical sciences and ontologies - the representation of
knowledge. The symposium will be of interest to scientists in chemical
and biochemical research in the pharmaceutical industry and in academia,
and to all those with an interest in creating and using chemical and
biochemical information science.
