International scientific school "Mesoscopic modelling of ionic macromolecular and biomacromolecular systems" will be held at the ITMO University June 9, 2014. The main objective of the event is the review of contemporary theoretical ideas about the properties and principles of organization of complex (bio)macromolecular systems and methods of simulation.

During the work of the school-seminar scientists and researchers from Russia, Czech Republic, Netherlands, USA, France and other countries will discuss the following topics in the scope of biophysics and nanobiotechnologies:

  • synthetic polymers and their use in (nano)biotechnology and medicine;
  • biological macromolecules (proteins, nucleic acids, polysaccharides) and their supramolecular organization;
  • methods of computer modeling (bio)macromolecules.

Working language is English.

Organizers of the event:

  • The ITMO University;
  • Institute of Macromolecular Compounds RAS;
  • The European Commission, the program of research exchange POLION.

School-seminar is conducted in alliance with VIII international Symposium "Molecular Order and Mobility in Polymer Systems" (June, 2-6, 2014, St. Petersburg).

We invite everyone to participate. The event will be especially interesting to graduate students, undergraduates and postgraduate students specializing in the following areas:

  • biophysics;
  • bioinformatics;
  • nanobiotechnology;
  • medical science.

For participation it’s necessary to register. To register and learn more about the event you can here.
