Call for Posters Mathematical Formalisms in RNA Structure MFRS 2001 April 26-27, 2001 MontrÈal, QuÈbec, Canada A workshop by: Centre de Recherche MathÈmatiques CEntre de Recherche en Calcul AppliquÈ UniversitÈ de MontrÈal Organized by: Laboratoire de Biologie Informatique et ThÈorique UniversitÈ de MontrÈal http://www-lbit.iro.umontreal.ca/MFRS01/ The workshop on Mathematical Formalisms in RNA Structure (MFRS) will be held in MontrÈal, QuÈbec, Canada on Thursday and Friday, April 26-27th 2001, immediatly after the RECOMB 2001 conference, one of the most important bioinformatics meetings. The goal of MFRS is to explore the current state of the art in computational RNA structure, as well as to provide a look towards the future of the field. The workshop will provide a general forum for disseminating the latest developments, and will bring together scientists from biochemistry, computer science, mathematics and statistics who will present an overview of currently used formalisms for analyzing, predicting and determining RNA structure. The workshop is sponsored by the Centre de Recherches MathÈmatiques (CRM), which received special funding for events like this one, and by the CEntre de Recherche en Calcul AppliquÈ (CERCA). The current list of invited speakers includes the following: Russ Altman, Stanford University James Brown, NCSU John Burke, U. Vermont David Case, Scripps Research Institute Daniel Gautheret, CNRS-Marseille Steve Harvey, U. Alabama Pascale Legault, U. Georgia Jean-Pierre Perreault, U. Sherbrooke Eric Westhof, CNRS-Strasbourg Michael Zuker, RPI Please visit the web site (http://www-lbit.iro.umontreal.ca/MFRS01/) for more detailed information on registration and abstract submission of poster presentation.
