CALENDAR OF EVENTS

APRIL 2012
4th Annual CNPN symposium
April 23-25, 2012,
Toronto, Canada
 

The Canadian National Proteomics Network will be hosting a symposium entitled “Proteomics; from protein structures to clinical applications” at the MTCC on April 23-25, 2012 in Toronto. Attendees will be exposed to cutting-edge research in proteomics and its application to cancer research. Specialized workshops (quantitative and structural proteomics) and a special session on cardiovascular proteomics will be presented on the first day of the symposium. Participants will have the opportunity to present their contributions as oral presentations or posters, and exchange ideas with experts from other disciplines during informal discussions. During this symposium, leaders in the field of proteomics will present novel approaches and challenges to cancer proteomics research as part of different thematic sessions:
 
Chemical and structural proteomics
Protein modifications and cell signaling
Protein interactions Network
Translational proteomics

MAY 2012
60th ASMS Conference on Mass Spectrometry and Allied Topics
May 20 - 24, 2012  •  Short Courses May 19 and 20,
Vancouver, Canada
JUNE 2012
2nd China Canada Systems Biology Conference and the 19th Methods in Protein Structure Analysis,
June 25 - 28, 2012
Ottawa Canada from June 25-28, 2012.

The 2012 joint conference is being organized and hosted by the Ottawa Institute of Systems Biology (University of Ottawa), The International Association for Protein Structure Analysis and Proteomics, and the China-Ontario BioAnalytic Consortium (COBAC).

The goal of this conference is to bring together internationally recognized scientists and students in the field of systems biology, protein biochemistry, and proteomics to promote scientific discussion and the development of new collaborations.

Abstracts for presentations at the MPSA 2012 are currently being accepted. All abstracts will be considered for poster presentation. The organizers will then be selecting abstracts for oral presentations.
