FIRST WORLD CONGRESS
ON COMPUTATIONAL MEDICINE, PUBLIC HEALTH AND
BIOTECHNOLOGY
24-28 April 1994
Hyatt Regency Hotel
Austin, Texas
- ----- (Feel Free To Cross Post This Announcement) ----
1.0 CONFERENCE OVERVIEW: With increasing frequency, computational
sciences are being exploited as a means with which to investigate
biomedical processes at all levels of complexity; from molecular to
systemic to demographic. Computational instruments are now used, not only
as exploratory tools but also as diagnostic and prognostic tools. The
appearance of high performance computing environments has, to a great
extent, removed the problem of increasing the biological reality of the
mathematical models. For the first time in the history of the field,
practical biological reality is finally within the grasp of the
biomedical modeler. Mathematical complexity is no longer as serious an
issue as speeds of computation are now of the order necessary to allow
extremely large and complex computational models to be analyzed. Large
memory machines are now routinely available. Additionally, high speed,
efficient, highly optimized numerical algorithms are under constant
development. As these algorithms are understood and improved upon, many
of them are transferred from software implementation to an implementation
in the hardware itself; thereby further enhancing the available
computational speed of current hardware. The purpose of this congress is
to bring together a transdisciplinary group of researchers in medicine,
public health, computer science, mathematics, nursing, veterinary
medicine, ecology, allied health, as well as numerous other disciplines,
for the purposes of examining the grand challenge problems of the next
decades. This will be a definitive meeting in that it will be the first
World Congress of its type and will be held as a follow-up to the very
well received Workshop On High Performance Computing In The Life Sciences
and Medicine held by the University of Texas System Center For High
Performance Computing in 1990.
Young scientists (graduate students, postdocs, etc.)
are encouraged to attend and to
present their work in this increasingly interesting
discipline. Funding is being solicited from NSF, NIH,
DOE, Darpa, EPA, and private foundations, as well as
other sources to assist in travel support and in the
offsetting of expenses for those unable to attend
otherwise. Papers, poster presentations, tutorials,
focused topic workshops, birds of a feather groups,
demonstrations, and other suggestions are also
solicited.

7.0 CONFERENCE PRELIMINARY DETAILS AND ENVIRONMENT
LOCATION: Hyatt Regency Hotel, Austin, Texas, USA
DATES: 24-28 April 1994
The 1st World Congress On Computational Medicine,
Public Health, and Biotechnology will be held at the
Hyatt Regency Hotel, Austin, Texas located in
downtown Austin on the shores of Town Lake, also
known as the Colorado River. The Hyatt Regency has
rooms available for the conference participants at
a special rate of $79.00/night for single or double
occupancy, with a hotel tax of 13%. The Hyatt accepts
American Express, Diner's Club, Visa, MasterCard,
Carte Blanche, and Discover credit cards. This room
rate will be in effect until 9 April 1994 or until
the block of rooms is full. We recommend that you make
your reservations as soon as possible. You may make
your reservations by calling (512) 477-1234 or by
returning the enclosed reservation form. Be certain
to mention that you are attending the First World
Congress On Computational Medicine, Public Health,
and Biotechnology if you make your reservations by
telephone.
The hotel is approximately, five miles (15 minutes
from Robert Mueller Airport). The Hyatt offers
courtesy limousine service to and from the airport
between the hours of 6:00am and 11:00pm. You may call
them from the airport when you arrive. If you choose
to use a taxi, expect to pay approximately $8.00.
Automobiles may be rented, at the airport, from most
of the major car rental agencies. However, because of
the downtown location of the Congress and access to
taxis and to bus service, we do not recommend that you
rent an auto unless you are planning to drive
outside of the city.
Should you not be able to find an available room
at the Hyatt Regency, we have scheduled an "overflow"
hotel, the Embassy Suites, which is located directly
across the street from the Hyatt Regency. If, due to
travel expense restrictions, you are unable to stay
at either of these two hotels, please contact the
conference board directly and we will be more than
happy to find a hotel near the conference site that
should accommodate your needs.
Austin, the state capital, is renowned for its natural
hill-country beauty and an active cultural scene.
Several hiking and jogging trails are within walking
distance of the hotel, as well as opportunities for a
variety of aquatic sports. From the Hyatt, you can
"Catch a Dillo" downtown, taking a ride on our
delightful inner-city, rubber-wheeled trolley system.
In Austin's historic downtown area, you can take a
free guided tour through the State Capitol Building,
constructed in 1888. Or, you can visit the Governor's
Mansion, recognized as one of the finest examples of
19th Century Greek Revival architecture and housing
every Texas governor since 1856. Downtown you will
find the Old Bakery and Emporium, built by Swedish
immigrant Charles Lundberg in 1876 and the Sixth
Street/Old Pecan Street Historical District - a
seven-block renovation of Victorian and native stone
buildings, now a National Registered Historic District
containing more than 60 restaurants, clubs, and
shops to enjoy. The Laguna Gloria Art Museum, the
Archer M. Huntington Art Gallery, the LBJ Library and
Museum, the Neill-Cochran Museum House, and the Texas
Memorial Museum are among Austin's finest museums.
The Umlauf Sculpture Garden, has become a major
artistic attraction. Charles Umlauf's sculptured works
are placed in a variety of elegant settings under a
canopy of trees. The Zilker Gardens contains many
botanical highlights such as the Rose Garden, Oriental
Garden, Garden of the Blind, Water Garden and more.
Unique to Austin is a large population of Mexican
free-tailed bats which resides beneath the Congress
Avenue Bridge. During the month of April, the Highland
Lakes Bluebonnet Trail celebrates spring's wildflowers
(a major attraction) as this self-guided tour winds
through the surrounding region of Austin and nearby
towns (you will need to rent a car for this one).
Austin offers a number of indoor shopping malls in
every part of the city; The Arboretum, Barton Creek
Square, Dobie Mall, and Highland Mall, to name a few.
Capital Metro, Austin's mass transit system, offers
low cost transportation throughout Austin. Specialty
shops, offering a wide variety of handmade crafts and
merchandise crafted by native Texans, are scattered
throughout the city and surrounding areas.
Dining out in Austin, you will have choices of
American, Chinese, Authentic Mexican, Tex-Mex,
Italian, Japanese, or nearly any other type of cuisine
you might wish to experience, with price ranges that
will suit anyone's budget. Live bands perform in
various nightclubs around the city and at night spots
along Sixth Street, offering a range of jazz, blues,
country/Western, reggae, swing, and rock music.
Day temperatures will be in the 80-90(degrees F) range
and fairly humid. Evening temperatures have been known
to drop down into the 50's (degrees F). Cold weather
is not expected so be sure to bring lightweight
clothing with you. Congress exhibitor and vendor
presentations are also being planned.
8.0 CONFERENCE ENDORSEMENTS AND SPONSORSHIPS:
Numerous potential academic sponsors have been
contacted. Currently negotiations are underway
for sponsorship with SIAM, AMS, MAA, IEEE, FASEB, and
IMACS. Additionally AMA and ANA continuing medical
education support is being sought. Information
will be updated regularly on the anonymous ftp
site for the conference (see above). Currently,
funding has been generously supplied by the following
agencies:
