The Workshop on Physics, Chemistry, and Biology of Membrane Proteins is sponsored by Arizona State University and the Center for Biological Physics. This workshop will explore the structure, dynamics and function of membrane proteins. A key emphasis of the workshop is connecting theory and experiment. Recent developments both in the types of structure/function data that is available and the ability to perform calculations of sufficient sophistication are providing new opportunities to directly compare theoretical and experimental results.

The application of atomistic methods to problems of materials science and biophysics is hindered by complexity introduced by the large number of components involved. Significant progress in both biological physics and materials science have been made which apply electronic structure theory or atomistic (or coarse-grained) simulation techniques to uncover the new science and understanding in theses areas The goal of the Workshop is to highlight algorithmic developments, applications, and new science developments in both biological and materials science. The workshop brings together both theorists and experimentalists working on applied problems of practical importance. The program is focused on but not limited to novel methods of computations and their application to large scale simulations of biomolecules, cells, viruses, semiconductor and oxide materials and devices, and novel materials and their synthesis.

The objective of this workshop is to discuss ways to characterize complex materials using scattering techniques. The materials include,zeolites, maganites and glasses and experimental techniques include x-ray and neutron scattering, XAFS etc. Computer simulations play an important role in incorporating the known local stereochemistry with the experimental results to produce a more complete description of the structure, including structural disorder that is often present. Participation is by invitation only and is capped at 30 people. The sessions will include introductory lectures and also informal discussions.
