Upcoming GPCR Structure Conferences
Below is a table with upcoming scientific meetings and conferences that address the theme of GPCR structure / function relationships. Let me know if there are any other conferences that you're aware of, so I can update this table.
Thanks!

| Conference | Details |
|---|---|
| NIH Roadmap Meeting on Membrane Protein Technologies | San Diego, CA, Nov 17&18; method and technology focus Oct 1 deadline (seems to be closed already). "The goal of this meeting series is for a very open and shared environment where unpublished and creative technology ideas should be communicated by all attending participants." |
| GPCR-Based Drug Discovery Cambridge Healthtech Institute | Boston, MA, Nov. 2-4, 2010; Theme: Designing and Optimizing Therapies Targeting GPCRs. Cambridge Healthtech Institute's Eighth international "Discovery on Target" meeting ", targeting Diverse Pathways for Tomorrow's Therapeutics" |
| GPCR Workshop 2010 | Sheraton Waikiki, Honolulu, Hawaii December 7 - 10, 2010; structure-enabled pharmacology "This workshop is an inaugural event of the Confometrx Research Foundation. The purpose being to bring together scientists from academia, biotechnology and pharmaceutical industry to exchange ideas, disseminate information, and discuss challenges related to drug development for G-protein coupled receptors in order to facilitate the discovery of more effective and selective therapeutics for unmet medical needs." |
| Gordon Research Conferences on Molecular Pharmacology |
January 8-9, 2011 Ventura Beach Marriott Ventura, CA. "The Gordon-Kenan Research Seminar on Molecular Pharmacology is a unique forum for graduate students, post-docs, and other scientists with comparable levels of experience and education to present and exchange new data and cutting edge ideas. The focus of this meeting is to engage young scientists and trainees in discussion of 3 aspects of G Protein-Coupled Receptors (GPCRs) and post-receptor components: 1) Structural biology, 2) Cell biology and 3) Physiological roles. These 3 aspects largely subsume recent and current work in the field and thus should provide participants with state-of-the-art knowledge prior to the Molecular Pharmacology GRC." |
| Keystone Symposium: Transmembrane Signaling by GPCRs and Channels | San Diego, CA, Jan 23-28 2011; pharmacology, structure/function 23 Sept Abstract deadline. "The goal of this meeting is to discuss the molecular mechanisms of transmembrane signaling on the basis of three protein classes, i.e. G protein-coupled receptors, ion channels and transporters." |
| SBS 17th Annual Conference and Exhibition: Advancing the Science of Drug Discovery |
Orlando, Florida, USA. March 27-31, 2011 With keynote from Hugh Rosen on the S1P receptor structure |
