BioInfoMicro: Intensive five-day summer course in Portofino Italy for June 14-18 of this year on Scientific Convergence: BioMicroInfo.

Our targeted audience is executive decision makers in the pharmaceutical and healthcare fields, both those with a business background as well those with a technical background. A full description including the syllabus is available on our web site http://www.ICMIT.org. This year, the focus has shifted to the exciting and challenging convergence of biology, micro technology, and information science - three powerful forces that will drive pharmaceutical development and health care over the next several decades. Our course is a unique opportunity to explore the scientific and commercial opportunities that will arise. The written course materials to be distributed represent the equivalent information from the lectures of a semester-long subject having three hours of lectures per week. Communicated by Forbes Dewey Jr., Dick Kitney, Carmelina Ruggiero, and Phil Bourne.
