Last call for participants.<\/p>\n<p>Current challenges in computational structura biology:<br \/>improving model refinement for functional predictions<\/p>\n<p>Barcelona, 3-5 July 2006<\/p>\n<p>Please, check the program at the meeting&#8217;s web page:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/mmb.pcb.ub.es\/MODREF2006\">http:\/\/mmb.pcb.ub.es\/MODREF2006<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Thanks to its ability to generate usable models, computational chemistry<br \/>has branched into many different biological applications. Nevertheless,<br \/>the uncertainty associated with all molecular models is high. New<br \/>refinement methods are clearly needed to upgrade these models to<br \/>reliable predictions, which could be used with confidence both by<br \/>experimentalist and further computational studies. The goal of the<br \/>workshop is to share new views about computational refinement and<br \/>theoretical approaches that will enable us to improve current<br \/>low-resolution models and make better use of experimental structures. <\/p>\n<p>We will have great pleasure in welcoming you to Barcelona for the MODREF<br \/>2006 Workshop and we trust that you will enjoy it. <\/p>\n<p>The Organizing Committee<\/p>\n<p>Confirmed speakers<\/p>\n<p>Opening lecture<br \/>David T.
