[Compbio-allhands] Fwd: Automated Function Prediction: and ISMB Special Interest Group Meeting

---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Iddo Friedberg <idoerg(a)gmail.com> Date: Tue, Apr 17, 2012 at 8:27 AM Subject: Automated Function Prediction: and ISMB Special Interest Group Meeting To: ISB(a)listserv.it.northwestern.edu Locale: Long Beach, California USA Date: July 14, 2012 (Just before ISMB 2012) URL: http://biofunctionprediction.org Important dates: April 25, 2012: Deadline for submitting abstracts. (extended!) May 9, 2011: Notifications for accepted abstracts e-mailed to corresponding authors May 16, 2011: Deadline for presenters to confirm acceptance of invitation to speak. July 14, 2011: AFP SIG preceding ISMB 2012 An ISMB Special Interest Group Meeting Automated Protein Function Prediction Sequence and structure genomics have generated a wealth of data, but extracting meaningful information from genomic information is becoming an increasingly difficult challenge. Both the number and the diversity of discovered sequences are increasing, while the fraction of genes whose function is known is decreasing.In addition, there is a need for annotation which is standardized so that it could be incorporated into function annotation on a large scale. Finally, there is a need to assess the quality of the function prediction software which is out there. For these reasons and many more, automated protein function prediction is rapidly gaining interest among computational biologists in academia and industry. The AFP SIG has been part of ISMB since 2005. We call upon all researchers involved in gene and protein function prediction to submit an abstract to the AFP meeting. Authors of select abstracts will be invited to give a talk and/or present a poster. This year, AFP is delighted to have Jonathan Eisen from the University of California, Davis as its keynote speaker. Prof. Eisen is a pioneer in the field of function prediction. >From his lab page: http://bobcat.genomecenter.ucdavis.edu/mediawiki/index.php/Main_Page "Dr. Eisen has published more than 200 scientific papers and is a co-author of a relatively recently published Evolution Textbook. Dr. Eisen is also a strong proponent of the Open Access movement in scientific publishing and is Academic Editor in Chief of PLoS Biology. For recent news see http://twitter.com/phylogenomics" For further instructions on how to submit abstracts to AFP 2012, please go here: http://biofunctionprediction.org/node/415 We are looking forward to seeing you in Long Beach, California!

[Compbio-allhands] Summer internships at Amgen
by Ryan G. Coleman 14 Feb '12

14 Feb '12

Hi All, One of my past mentors, Alan Cheng, has some openings for a molecular modeling summer internship at Amgen in South San Francisco. Alan is also a UCSF alum (Biophysics 2001). Amgen also has other summer internships, see the attached flyer for more or the description below for Alan's positions. You have to apply online but you can email Alan at chenga(a)amgen.com if you'd like more information. Thanks, -Ryan Therapeutic Discovery Grad (#13069BR) and Undergrad (#13068)Intern: Specific projects designed by our scientists will provide the intern with hands-on drug discovery experience, such as designing and synthesizing novel compounds for potential drug candidates, molecular biology, protein engineering, cell biology, immunology, protein chemistry, chemical database information management, small molecule analytics, developing and applying automation and miniaturization technology and biochemical pharmacological screening of drug targets and candidates. The intern will gain valuable experience using the latest laboratory equipment and tools and a unique insight into the drug discovery environment.

The work is in collaboration with my colleague in the biochemistry department, Prof. Ivan Rayment, a renowned crystallographer, especially in the area of myosin related proteins. If you have a student interested in pursing this line of research for postdoc, please ask him/her to contact me. The support for CIBM postdocs is quite generous... Thanks! Best regards QC --------------- To: CIBM (Computation and Informatics in Biology and Medicine) Faculty Re: Nominations for a CIBM Postdoctoral Traineeship We are calling for nominations for several postdoctoral traineeships in the Computation and Informatics in Biology and Medicine (CIBM) Training Program, funded by the NLM Grant 5T15LM007359, to begin July, 2012 or later. We are attaching a form you can use to nominate outstanding candidates for the CIBM Training Program. The postdoctoral traineeship is for a one- to two-year period, and the traineeship award is contingent on the awarding of the renewal of the NLM Grant supporting the CIBM Training Program. These traineeships are designed for cross-disciplinary training - thus we are asking that the candidate have a secondary mentor in addition to the primary mentor (one from computational / informatics areas, and the other from biological areas). A list of the CIBM trainers is available on the CIBM website (<http://www.cibm.wisc.edu/>www.cibm.wisc.edu<http://www.cibm.wisc.edu> <<http://www.cibm.wisc.edu/>http://www.cibm.wisc.edu> ). The National Library of Medicine has changed its focus for its informatics training programs in the next five-year period to emphasize translational bioinformatics in addition to its current focuses on clinical research informatics and health/clinical informatics. Translational bioinformatics is defined to be bioinformatics research that has a clear linkage to health. The CIBM Training Program is interested in research in all three areas. All nominations should reflect one (or more) of these focuses. The due date for the nominations is Monday, March 19th, 2012 (by 3 p.m. in the CIBM Office, Rm. 3420 Biotechnology Center Addition).

[Compbio-allhands] BMS talk Wednesday
by Jacobson, Matt 31 Jan '12

31 Jan '12

Wednesday Feb 1, 11:30 pm, in BH212 Deborah Loughney, Stan Krystek, and Steve Johnson from BMS stopped by UCSF for a visit and I suggested that they give a talk on Wednesday. I will send out a title when I receive it, but it sounds like they will split the time and give two short talks, one on small molecule work and the other on macromolecular drugs. Stan has an interesting position in that he's focused 100% on computer-aided design for biologics. Following the talk, I will ask postdocs from my group to take them to lunch for informal conversations. If you would like to join, let me know and I'll see what I can do. -- Matt Matthew P.
