INTERNATIONAL UNION FOR
PURE AND APPLIED BIOPHYSICS

This workshop will serve to introduce students from Brazil and surrounding countries to modern biophysical techniques such as NMR, fluorescence, ESR, circular dichroism, IR, X-ray scattering, microscopies and molecular simulations. Furthermore, during this year´s workshop Prof. Shirley Schreier´s 70th birthday will be celebrated.  Prof. Schreier is one of the Biophysics pioneers in Brazil, who has always been committed with good science and education of the students.

This Congress, with a Focus on Calcium Signalling and TRP Channels, will be held at Isparta, Turkey  on June 22-27, 2010.  Further details on the program and social activities are one the website www.cmos.org.tr kongre poster-ing

Vale Greta Pifat-Mrzljak
At the time of her death after an illness in December, 2009 Greta was director of the Ruder Boskovic Institute in Zagreb, Croatia. She was also the current awardee, and the first non-U.S. recipient, of the prestigious Emily M. Gray Award for exceptional contribution to education in biophysics. She will be remembered by many, but especially by the many students who benefited from her skilfully organised workshops and summer schools, the most recent in Rovinj, Croatia last year.
