Dear amber-ites: A great small to medium sized meeting to meet up with key
users and developers of biomolecular simulation software...


Howdy all and Call for Participation!

The ISQBP President's meeting "Challenges and celebrations of biomolecular
simulation" is being held from Sunday evening June 15 through the later
evening of Wednesday June 18. There will be a large poster session for
presentations by attendees and we plan on selecting a number of these for
oral presentation. We are currently planning on ~20+ invited
presentations with ~16+ oral presentations from abstracts for posters
submitted. The registration includes a number of breakfasts, lunches,
dinner and receptions and telluride is a beautiful town to visit. Please
consider attending and registering quickly as Telluride is a very popular
tourist spot at this time of the year.

This is especially true this week since at the end of this week is the
Blue Grass festival in Telluride, so rooms are filling up fast. If
planning on choosing the hotel option, note that Camel's Garden and New
Sheridan are likely full; better to choose Hotel Madeline or Hotel
Telluride. Rooms in Mountain Village rarely sell out, however they are a
(pretty and free) ~20 minute gondola ride from town (where the meeting is
held in the nice and open Palm Theatre). The condo option is cheapest,
however these are also filling up fast...

For attendee's and invited speakers:

For student's and postdoc (reduced registration for first 40 people who
register and also submit an abstract for a poster to tec3.utah.edu):

For cheaper housing opportunities in Condo's act quickly; if having
trouble, contact Rory at TSRC <rory.telluridescience.org>. Note that as
mentioned, among the poster submissions, we plan on picking ~16+ abstracts
for oral presentation in a short talk!

For travel options, easiest/most expensive is likely a plane to Telluride
(using originating in Denver). Best compromise in ease/cost, plane to
Montrose, CO. (MTJ) and then take a shuttle or rent a car. Cheapest, but
slightly longer timewise is a flight to Salt Lake City, UT (SLC) or
Denver, CO. (DEN) followed by ~6 hour very beautiful drive.

Thanks much and e-mail me with questions, off the list.
