EuroCUP III
Dear Colleague,
After Sheffield in 2007, and Strasbourg in 2008, OpenEye will hold its third
annual European scientific meeting in the World Heritage city of Toledo, Spain,
in April 2009. We anticipate the four EuroCUP III Main Sessions to cover:
-
Shape and Electrostatics
-
QSAR: Is it Worth it?
-
Fragment Design: Good Idea or the Latest Blind Alley?
-
Databases and Data Sources for Molecular Modeling
There are speaking slots available in most of these sessions and also poster
exhibitions. So if you would like to contribute please follow the link for registration
and abstract submission.
We are delighted that Professor Dr. Jürgen Bajorath has agreed to give the
EuroCUP Allocution entitled: "The role of journals in computational chemistry".
In addition to the Main Sessions, we will hold a half-day Toolkit Session, where
toolkit users will have the opportunity to share some of their work. An OpenEye
Training Workshop on Python/OEChem will also be available for those interested
in programming (limited to 10 trainees only!).
As always, except for the training, there is no registration cost for the
meeting. Attendees need only cover travel and accommodation.
We very much hope you will be able to join us in Toledo!
With kind regards,
Vincent Vivien
Director of European Accounts

-
Abstract submission deadline for posters: March 30th, 2009.

Registration deadline: March 30th, 2009. Because of the limited number
of rooms available at the conference hotel however, it is likely that
these will be filled well before that date. So please register early!
Hotel
The location of the meeting and official hotel is the Parador
Toledo. You do NOT need to book the hotel yourself, OpenEye will make the
reservation for you with the information you will provide in the registration
form.
Travel
Those flying will want to aim for Madrid Bajaras International Airport (MAD).
OpenEye will organize a shuttle service from the airport directly to the
conference hotel (about 1 hour's travel time). Please let us know about
your arrival and departure time at MAD so that we can schedule the
shuttle service to minimize waiting time.
You may also use taxis
and public transportation from MAD to Toledo, although it will require going
through Madrid, which is not as convenient.
Costs and Payments
Except for the Python/OEChem training, the cost only covers delegates'
accommodation, full board with wine tasting / conference dinner, and shuttle
service to and from airport.
Payments covering the Toolkit
session and Main EuroCUP III sessions will be made directly to the hotel upon
checkout, together with any incidentals, unless prior arrangement has
been made with EuroCUP organizers.
Please see the registration
form for details of what's included, as well as pricing options for local
delegates.
Student Bursaries
A limited number of student bursaries are available for poster presentations.
These will cover the costs associated with attendance to the Main EuroCUP III
Sessions, i.e. the accommodation, full board and transportation to and from the
airport using the shuttle service. For consideration, please use the registration
form to submit your poster abstract and use the comments field to precise
that you are applying for a student bursary.
