Nanoinformatics 2011: Call for posters

(Nanowerk News) Nanoinformatics 2011 will bring together informatics experts, nanotechnology researchers, and other stakeholders and potential contributors to advance Nanoinformatics 2020 Roadmap goals. The workshop will set a clear path for Nanoinformatics participants through strategic planning sessions, open discussions, and the presentation of projects and research.
The conference will be held December 7-9, 2011 in Arlington, VA, at the Hyatt Regency Crystal City hotel. December 7th and 8th are open to the public. December 9th will be a working day for Nanoinformatics 2020 pilot participants, affiliates, and conference organizers.
Participants are invited to submit poster abstracts that:
  • Describe existing nanoinformatics projects within a specific nanotechnology application area
  • Describe informatics exemplars from outside the nanotechnology domain that would be appropriate models for nanoinformatics
  • Describe novel approaches to the collection and/or curation of nanotechnology data
  • Demonstrate innovative use of computational and/or information technologies to solve problems within the nanotechnology domain
  • Address cultural, legal, or ethical barriers to data sharing within the nanotechnology community
  • Participants are welcome to submit posters that address the Nanoinformatics 2011 themes: Quantitative Structure Activity Relationships and Minimum Required Characteristics. More information about the workshop themes can be found on our themes page: http://nanotechinformatics.org/workshopthemes
    Abstracts of no more than 500 words in length that describe a project or approach as outlined above will be reviewed by program theme co-chairs. Submit your abstract here: http://nanotechinformatics.org/nidocuments/add
    Submissions will be accepted until November 14, 2011. Authors will be notified about the status of their submission as it is reviewed.
