JOCB BULLETIN
Welcome to this second edition of the JoCB Bulletin containing items of information for the Chemical Biology Community
The range of subject areas included in the conferences below reflects the wider range of specialisms of the extended editorial board as well as the expanding interest in this field of study. There are two book reviews included below and a new item called Co-workers Corner where papers or items of particular interest to researchers can be brought to your attention.
Gordon Research Conferences Molecular Energy Transfer Building A Molecular Picture Of Nature Date: January 18–23, 2009
Dr C A Rosser Director of Studies Rye St Antony School Oxford, OX3 0BY, United Kingdom email: [email protected]
Venue: Four Points Sheraton / Holiday Inn Express Ventura, CA Chair: Floyd Davis Understanding how energy flows within and between molecules is essential to the development of a fundamental understanding of the nature of all chemical processes. The deepest understanding can be achieved when phenomena are studied at the molecular level, connecting quantum-state, timeresolved and other modern methods of experimentation to ab initio theoretical study. The Gordon Research Conference on Molecular Energy Transfer will bring together scientists concerned with a wide variety of topics spanning chemistry, physics and biology, yet unified by the idea that developing a molecular picture of chemical dynamics is a central goal of their endeavors.

Gordon Research Conferences Metals In Biology Date: January 25–30, 2009 Venue: Four Points Sheraton / Holiday Inn Express Ventura, CA Chair: Peter M. Kroneck Metals play key roles in maintaining life. You will have a hard time finding one important process within the living cell that does NOT depend on a metal ion in the context of either function or structure. Metals are located at the heart of sophisticated molecular machines, ready to conserve energy, ready to cope with toxic gases, or ready to send out signals to trigger or terminate important reactions. The highly interdisciplinary Metals in Biology Gordon Conference (MIB) is one of the longest-running in the GRC family. It provides a forum for leading researchers with expertise that spans from physical techniques and synthetic chemistry through biology and biomedicine to meet and discuss topics of common interest.
