The XXXI Symposium on Bioinformatics and Computer-Aided Drug Discovery

On October 3-4, 2024 in Moscow will host the All-Russian Conference with international participation "Biomedical Chemistry: Science and Practice", dedicated to the 80th anniversary of the V.N. Orekhovich Scientific Research Institute of Biomedical Chemistry (IBMC). More:

Within the framework of the XIV INTERNATIONAL ECONOMIC FORUM "RUSSIA - ISLAMIC WORLD: KAZANFORUM" 2023 (kazanforum.ru), a memorandum was signed between IBMC and the Malaysian University of Technology. Cooperation with the Malaysian side, initiated by the Council on the Priority "Personalized Medicine" of the Strategy for Scientific and Technological Development of the Russian Federation, opens a new page in our common scientific history. Opportunities for the exchange of experience in the field of biology and medicine are outlined: bioengineering, development of drugs and new materials. Planned future joint activities.

Recently, several new projects have been started with leading teams from India, Taiwan, and China (prof. Huanwen Chen, the head of the State Key Lab of Analytical Instrumentation and Mass-spectrometry).

The new equipment has already been installed and is being used for scientific research. The instruments help to analyze the function of proteins and to study cells in a variety of parameters. A cluster of computing servers allows you to store and analyze big data. The equipment allows scientists to participate in the International Human Proteome Project, which started in 2010 in Sydney. Today, more than 20 countries are participating in HPP-research. Russian scientists are responsible for the content of proteins encoded by the genes of chromosome 18. They have already found about 80% of proteins, but to understand their function, they need to conduct research on more powerful equipment. Now scientists can analyze the composition of biological samples with indicators recommended by the international community.

The program of the round table includes reports on achievements in the field of multi-omics technologies (multimodal omics approaches) and bioinformatics. Young Russian and Malaysian scientists discuss how to search for crossroads between biology, chemistry and other related disciplines to study and manage biological systems of biomedical importance.more...

The materials of the Symposium are available on the website. The best reports will be recommended by the Scientific Committee for publishing as Research Articles or Short Communications in the special issue of the “Molecular Informatics” journal (Wiley-VCH GmbH, Impact factor: 3.353).

The materials of the Symposium are available on the website. The International Program Committee has recommended some papers for publication in a special issue of the journal "Biomeditsinskaya Khimiya". Sponsored by Clarivate Analytics, this issue of the journal will be presented in open access mode.

The XXVIII Symposium "Bioinformatics and Computer-Aided Drug Discovery" is scheduled for April 2022.

Named after its founder Vasily Orekhovich, IBMC specializes in post-genome sciences, especially computer-aided and experimental drug design, proteomics, and metabolomics.

The goal of the S20 Summit is to offer real solutions for the benefit of the world, drawing on the views of the scientific community on specific issues. As a result of the Summit, a communiqué "Foresight: Science as a Navigation Tool in Times of Critical Change" was prepared, which will be officially presented for consideration to the leaders of the G20 countries in November this year. The main conclusion, set out in the signed communiqué, is that the issues of the planet and people must be considered holistically and with a full understanding of the interconnectedness and complexity of human and natural systems.
