Abstract

The background and purpose of the British Biophysical Society Discussion meeting, The Hydration Problem in Solution Biophysics, held at the University of Glasgow, 12 September 2000, is described, particularly in relation to previous meetings in this field. Whereas a study of the nature and dynamic properties of water associated with a molecule is an important topic by itself, the collection of papers based on this meeting focus mainly on its affect in interpreting biophysical data in terms of macromolecular shape in a solution environment, particularly under dilute and very dilute systems. The techniques considered are largely hydrodynamically or thermodynamically based and supplemented by molecular modeling strategies; but in the context of how these could be used in conjunction with techniques like X-ray crystallography, NMR and neutron scattering.
