ICCCB 2020: 14. International Conference on Computational Cell Biology aims to bring together leading academic scientists, researchers and research scholars to exchange and share their experiences and research results on all aspects of Computational Cell Biology. It also provides a premier interdisciplinary platform for researchers, practitioners and educators to present and discuss the most recent innovations, trends, and concerns as well as practical challenges encountered and solutions adopted in the fields of Computational Cell Biology. ...

Cell biology is currently undergoing an historic transition from a qualitative to a quantitative science. For the past two decades, computational modeling has played a pivotal role in this transition, and now, interdisciplinary collaborations combining both in silico and in vivo components are the gold standard for cellular research. However, barriers separating the conventional disciplines continue to hinder successful implementation of this powerful hybrid approach, leaving a myriad of complex biological phenomena virtually impenetrable. To this end, we are providing a conference that will serve as a platform for the exchanging of ideas and synthesis of collaborations between experimentalists and theoreticians from a broad spectrum of disciplines and career stages. ...

The IFCB has its historical roots in the early 1930's. It was formally established in St. Louis in 1972 to coordinate and support Cell Biology activities throughout the world, as well as representing cell biology in the International Union of Biological Sciences. The affiliation makes the IFCB a constituent of the International Council of Scientific Unions (ICSU), and puts our congresses officially under the aegis of the latter. This is of particular importance to colleagues in some countries who may become eligible for grants to attend international congresses sponsored by the ISCU. The IFCB is also represented in the International Cell Research Organization (ICRO) which functions in UNESCO. The IFCB continues to fulfill its functions with a minimum of organization and at a low overhead cost. The organization of each international congress is delegated to a sponsoring member society which takes full responsibility as host for the congress. The IFCB normally provides a block grant to the congress organizers to help young cell biologists mainly from developing countries to attend the meetings. These funds are allocated by the appropriate committee of the congress (which includes an appropriate IFCB official or nominee) and is based on an assessment of the scientific quality of the abstracts submitted. Grants usually cover only part of the travel costs or subsistence. ... [Information of the supplier]
The international meeting presents the current state of research in the rapidly developing field of Cell Biology, a fundamental discipline for all life sciences. The format and programme of the meeting provides an international platform for presentation and discussion of the most recent and exciting achievements in cell biology. We strongly support young scientists by short talks, poster sessions and educational events such as a special session on publishing and funding. The Meeting 2014 in Regensburg has an emphasis on combining the two evolutionary separated metazon kingdoms, the animal and plant cell biology. In the name of the organizing committee I am happy to welcome you to join our exciting international meeting in the historic city of Regensburg. Eugen Kerkhoff, Stephanie Sprunck and Thomas Dresselhaus ... [Information of the supplier]
The German Society for Cell Biology (DGZ) and the local organizing team headed by Prof. Dr. Heinrich Leonhardt would like to cordially invite you to attend the International Meeting of the German Society for Cell Biology from March 14 - 16, 2016 in Munich. The venue is within the brand new university campus in Martinsried at the Biocenter and the Biomedical Center. With 400 to 600 guests our International Meeting is the biggest annual meeting on basic cell biological research in Germany. You will enjoy an exciting program with talks of excellent, leading scientists from Europe and overseas and you will have the opportunity to present your own scientific work within the two poster sessions. In addition you may apply for an oral presentation within the topics of symposia. Compared to previous years we have decided to hold the meeting in a more compact format within three days and to offer more space in the program for short oral presentations selected from the submitted abstracts. Due to the close neighborhood to Austria we have invited the ÖGMBT (Austrian Association of Molecular Life Sciences and Biotechnology) as a guest to promote presentations of cell biological research from Austria. Thus, we especially would like to encourage also researchers from Austria to come to Munich. ... [Information of the supplier]
The membrane organization and subcellular location of a protein can provide information about its functional role. Historically, these data have been difficult to produce on a large scale for higher eukaryotic organisms. However, recent advances in membrane organization prediction methods and high-throughput subcellular localization assays have made it possible to generate these datasets. LOCATE is a curated, web-accessible database that houses data describing the membrane organization and subcellular localization of proteins from the FANTOM3 Isoform Protein Sequence set. Membrane organization is predicted by the high-throughput, computational pipeline MemO. The subcellular locations of selected proteins from this set were determined by a high-throughput, immunofluorescence-based assay and by manually reviewing over 1700 peer-reviewed publications. The results of the MemO pipeline and the subcellular localization methods are stored in the database with supporting information including a graphical depiction of the membrane organization juxtaposed with InterPro-predicted features and links to several external databases. The database is searchable by subcellular location, protein class, descriptive keyword, and sequence similarity. The data are retrievable in human- and machine-readable formats and in batch. ...

The Membrane Protein Data Bank (MPDB) is an online, searchable, relational database of structural and functional information on integral, anchored and peripheral membrane proteins and peptides. Data originates from the Protein Data Bank and other databases, and from the literature. Structures are based on X-ray and electron diffraction, nuclear magnetic resonance and cryoelectron microscopy. The MPDB is searchable online by protein characteristic, structure determination method, crystallization technique, detergent, temperature, pH, author, etc. Record entries are hyperlinked to the PDB and Pfam for viewing sequence, three-dimensional structure and domain architecture, and for downloading coordinates. Links to PubMed are also provided. ... [Information of the supplier]
Colleagues from around the world will be joining us at the University of Leeds to discuss and celebrate the wonderful contributions that Steve made to the field of Biochemistry and specifically membrane protein structure and function.

This symposium, initiated in 2010, has taken place every second year since and brings together early-career and established researchers from all over the world who are interested in microtubule biology and its impact on human health and disease. The microtubule cytoskeleton is essential for a wide variety of cellular functions, such as chromosome segregation, directed vesicle and organelle transport, cell motility, and cell polarity. Impaired microtubule function can lead to human diseases including cancer and neurodegenerative disorders, where microtubules serve as important therapeutic targets. In recent years, interdisciplinary approaches embracing cell biology, genetics, molecular biology, biochemistry, biophysics, structural biology, and mathematical modelling have made a tremendous impact on microtubule research. The progressive diversification of the microtubule field creates the need for this strong meeting that unifies the community and brings together researchers from different disciplines interested in microtubule research. As per the now well-established format, the 2024 edition of the symposium will feature inspirational keynote and landmark lectures, a large number of short talk opportunities selected from the submitted abstracts, lively poster sessions, and activities for networking. ...
