Dear all: This is an e-mail message regarding the Life Science Grid Research Group (LSG-RG) in the Open Grid Forum (OGF), formerly the Global Grid Forum (GGF). I sent out last month asking for input regarding a proposed meeting regarding proteomics for the next OGF meeting in Boston in February. The leadership of OGF would like to make a workshop for Pharma, and they have asked us to participate with them in this effort. Thus, I would like to extend a call for presentations in Pharmacology. We would like to specifically look for presentations relating to those areas in Pharmacology that involve intensive computational power, extensive communications, or massive amounts of data, but all will be considered. I would like the membership of this e-mail list to help us in the solicitation of speakers, and would like to solicit your input into what topics and/or speakers we should pursue. Here are some suggested speakers * Piotr Sliz, PhD, Bioinformatics Specialist II, Howard Hughes Medical Institute * Steve Litster, Novartis Institutes of BioMedical Research * Timothy Wagner, Bristol-Myers Squibb Company * Jeffrey Mathers, Pharmaceutical Research & Development * Sanjoy Ray, Merck * Peter S. Shenkin, Schrodinger * WISDOM, Vincent Breton CNRS * Bridge, Martin Hofmann fron SCAI Fraunhofer * Share, Tony Solomonides from Univ West England * Ian Penny of Pfizer I'm looking forward to input from all. Please post notices by 12/26/07 ================= The LSG-RG (Life Science Grid Research Group) is a group in OGF (Open Grid Forum) which was formed with the purpose of developing best practices in the area of the Life Sciences in the intersection with Grid Computing. The group also serves the purpose of interfacing with the other group in OGF and ensuring that all standards created by OGF take into account the requirements of applications in the Life Sciences.
