It gives us great pleasure to inform you that the NAIMI Congress will be
held in Alghero, on the North West of Sardinia, in the centre of
Mediterranean Sea, this September as a satellite symposium to the Congres=
s
in Coordination Chemistry in Florence. This congress is specifically aime=
d
at those working in the DNA Polymers field and promises to be a valuable
and stimulating occasion. The opportunity for experts in the general
chemical sector to meet those working on the base of DNA and RNA in an
informal setting should lead to interesting brainstorming sessions, which
will undoubtedly be of great use to both sides.
Yours,

Nucleic acids and their interactions with metal ions
Satellite Symposium of the XXXIII International Conference
on Coordination Chemistry in Florence
Alghero September 5-7 1998
The mini symposium is intended for researchers in the Chemistry of Nuclei=
c
Acids and Metal Ions field. The main objective of the symposium is to bri=

of
metal ions on the structure and metabolism of DNA. The main topics will b=
e
DNA Polymers, nucleic metal proteins, zinc fingers and PNA.
