Initiative Conference
One of North America's Most Affordable Scientific Meetings
2 Days—Only $294.25 Canadian until April 18, 2006
May 10 – 12, 2006
University of Alberta, Edmonton, Canada
The CPI 2006
program includes:
- Five major disciplines: Functional genomics,
proteomics, bioinformatics, technology development, and structural
biology
- Internationally recognized speakers
and leaders in proteomics — see this year's program
- A program blending scientific presentations and
discussion,
supplemented by exhibitor showcases and industry sponsored activities
and workshops
- Poster presentations highlighting cutting edge
proteomics research
- A showcase for innovative proteomics tools
- Workshops for sharing information, learning how
to use and apply
proteomics tools and for analyzing the vast and complex data generated
from proteomics experiments
- A forum for networking, sharing ideas and
establishing
collaborations
