| The Fourth Bioinformatics Industrialization Workshop for industrial-strength integration, automation, simulation, privacy, quality and standards in medicine and the high throughput life sciences, cosponsored and organized by IBM Life Sciences, The Deep Computing Institute, IBM Research, The International Union of Pure and Applied Biophysics, and the Program in Biological and Medical Informatics, University of California San Francisco - Genentech Hall, University of California San Francisco, December 6-7, 2003. Directions to the new UCSF Mission Bay campus MAP: http://www.ucsf.edu/campuses/maps/mb.pdfs HOTELS: Marriott Courtyard: Lisa Johnston: 650-837-9000 SF airport or Eric Lopez: 415-486-6463 downtown SF. What to do in San Francisco in your spare time: http://www.sfgate.com/eguide/ Spaces are available at the above symposium concerning the union of medicine with information technology and genomics to enable sophisticated public personalized health care in the near future. The first meeting “Bioinformatics Comes of Age: Using the Genome” was held at the Whitehead Institute Cambridge Mass., and opened in 2000 on the day of the announcement from Washington DC on the completion of the first draft of the human genome projects. Subsequent meetings on “Bioinformatics and Medicine” were held at the Wellcome Trust Campus and the European Bioinformatics Institute, UK. The symposia were also Workshops to help the Inter-Unions Bioinformatics Group and the International Union of Pure and Applied Biophysics prepare a Report for UNESCO and the ICSU. This is completed but selected persons may stay a further day of the 2003 meeting to collate material for a white paper. Prestigious speakers include Russ Altman of Stanford University, Bruce McManus of the University of British Columbia, William Knaus of Virginia University, William Evans of St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, Larry Gelbert of Eli Lilly, Sharon Marsh of Washington University, Kathy Giacomini of the University of California San Francisco, Jean Garnier, President of the International Union of Pure and Applied Biophysics, Lee Edwards of Imperial College and the Clinical Data Recorder Group, St Mary’s Hospital, London, and Carlos Caldas of the Hutchison/MRC Research Center, Cambridge UK. Applications. The meeting fees are: $500 for industry representatives, $150 for participants from academic and not-for-profit institutions. Attendance is limited to 260 people, including speakers. Participants should make their own arrangements for accommodation. The deadline date for receipt of fees under normal circumstances is now November 21st 2003, though, if there are places, special requests are considered. There can be no refund for cancellations although an appropriate substitute in your place is normally acceptable. Whereas we believe the program below to be final, unexpected circumstances may necessitate changes. Please make checks out to "UC REGENTS" and mail to: UCSF Office
