Conference - San Diego, CA, United States
The relatively new field of Protein-Protein Interaction (PPI) is experiencing fantastic growth in the field of drug discovery. The key concepts of PPI are to understand how proteins interact, to understand why inhibiting them is beneficial (anti-proliferative, anti-inflammatory), and how to identify molecules that block the interactions as treatment strategies.
These concepts and much more will be covered at the inaugural Protein-Protein Interaction Conference. Below are the topics and panels for this year's event.
Sessions of the conference include:
Theory & Computation
Innovative Computational Approaches & Technologies
Theory, Docking & Encounter Complexes
Design & Evolution
Novel Scaffolds and Inhibitors of PPI
PPI Evolution & Design
Biophysical Studies of PPIs
Non-Specific Interactions and Protein Crowding
Protein-Protein Interactions as Drug Targets
Preclinical & Basic Research Applications
Novel Advances is SMIPPIs Research
Protein Interactions in the Membrane
Membrane Proteins & Large Complexes
Networks of Protein-Protein Interactions
New Methods for PPI Screening
Modulation of PPIs
Technologies & New Approaches
There will also be several interactive Panel Discussions on:
Industry & Academia Collaborations
Community Data Sharing - Standardization & Challenges
The conference will run parallel with 3 other information-packed conference as part of the Protein Discovery Summit:
Antibody and Protein Therapeutics
Protein Expression & Formulation
2nd Protein Kinases and Drug Design
