Abstract Committee Review

Abstract TitleSpecificity of Neurotoxins to Subtypes of Human Nicotinic Acetylcholine Receptors

Comments to Author

It is not clear what is the relationship between alpha-conotoxins, nicotinic acetylcholine receptors and the subject of the conference that is mostly related to botulinal neurotoxins. If authors can made a link between botulinum neurotoxins and alpha-conotoxins then may be it would be interesting to some of the attendants. The abstract presented has nothing wrong, the data has been previously published in Chemical and biophysical journals using modern semi-supervised machine learning. Otherwise, the subject is out of the scope of the conference, and I would recommend rejection of the Abstract.
