       CCP11 WORKSHOP ON MULTIPLE SEQUENCE ALIGNMENT METHODS



                     Thursday 24th January 1990


An informal seminar  and workshop session for developers of multiple
sequence  alignment software will be held at  The National Institute
for Medical Research,  Mill Hill, London, under the auspices  of the
newly  formed  Collaborative  Computing Project  in  Biosequence and
Structure  Analysis  (CCP11). The  meeting  will  essentially be  an
opportunity  for  developers  of  multiple  sequence  software  (and
related   applications)  to   get  together   and  discuss   current
developments  in the  field. Due  to the  limited  number of  places
available, the meeting  must unfortunately be limited to developers,
rather  than users, though it  is hoped that  user workshops will be
arranged at some time in the future.

The meeting will begin at 10.30am and finish at  4.30pm. The program
will  consist  of  short  talks   by  invited  speakers   (including
W.R. Taylor,  P. Argos, G. Barton,  M. Johnson, D. Jones),  together
with periods for  discussion. There will also be an  opportunity for
developers to give a 'hands-on' demonstration of their software.

A charge of 3.50 will be made to cover the costs of a buffet lunch.


                            APPLICATIONS

As it is expected  that places will be severely limited, places must
be allocated  preferentially  to  people  actively  working  in  the
field. To  assist in the  place allocation, it  would be helpful  if
you could briefly outline your involvement in the field below.
