INVITATION TO ATTEND

          Dear Colleagues,

          The Organizing Committee cordially invites you to attend the 15th European Symposium on QSAR (Quantitative Structure-Activity Relationship) and Molecular Modelling that will be held in Istanbul on 05-10 September 2004, which is organized by the collaboration of the International QSAR and Modelling Society.

          The "European Symposia on QSAR and Molecular Modelling" are major scientific events that have been organized in different cities of Europe since 1973. They have a fascinating scope at rational approaches on Drug Design and worldwide attendance from both industry and academia.

          The 15th European Symposium on QSAR and Molecular Modelling will continue the same tendency by offering a scientific programme covering the most recent and advanced researches on abroad range of topics in the field of Computer-Aided Drug Design and Development by leading international experts.

          Besides the scientific aspects of the programme you will have a chance appreciate one of the most ancient metropolises of the world. Three major empires ruled the world from this powerful capital, the Romans , the Byzantines and the Ottomans, and each of these left their mark on Istanbul, both culturally and architecturally. Istanbul, a city where the two continents meet, is chosen as the site of Symposium because of its history, culture, tradition and natural beauty. It is also a city where the heart of the Turkish Pharmaceutical Industry is located.

          It is our intention to make this biennial European Symposium a memorable event, both scientifically and socially for the attendees.

          We look forward to welcoming you in Istanbul.
