Bethesda, MD - The FASEB Science Research Conference on Biology and Chemistry of Vision provides in-depth analysis and discussion of all aspects of rod and cone photoreceptor biology and pathology, including the functional relationships between photoreceptors and other cell types in the posterior eye. The 2015 Conference will have two keynote speakers, nine platform and two poster sessions covering the broad fields of photoreceptor chemistry, cell biology, neuroscience, and retinal disease mechanisms. The first session will address the structure, function and genetics of retinal proteins. The second will cover the functional interactions between photoreceptors and the retinal pigment epithelium. The third will consider photoreceptor synaptic mechanisms. The fourth will provide historical context for the most critical breakthroughs in the field, cover current trends and consider future programmatic goals for the field. The fifth will highlight photoreceptor function and degenerative disorders in a broad context of ciliary cell biology. The sixth will update the field about the successes and limitations in new approaches to restoring visual function, including advances in gene therapy and stem cell transplantation. The seventh will be devoted entirely to discussing the molecular mechanisms of photoreceptor pathobiology. The eighth will cover new mechanisms of photoreceptor regulation, and the … Continue reading →

Bethesda, MD - This FASEB Science Research Conference focuses on the Biology of Cilia and Flagella. Cilia and flagella are of profound medical importance. The understanding of cilia and flagella has increased in depth and breadth as we learn more about these remarkable organelles. A range of sessions will covering basic topics in ciliary structure/transport/motility, centrioles/basal bodies, ciliary dynamics and signaling, cilia in the nervous system, and cutting-edge technologies, as well as clinical topics on Polycystic kidney disease, development and disease, and human ciliopathies. This international meeting is well attended by cell, molecular, and developmental biologists, human and model organism geneticists, biochemists, physician scientists and clinical scientists with interests ranging from the fundamental biology of cilia to the molecular mechanisms and therapeutic treatments of cilia-based diseases in humans. This unique venue will bring together basic scientists and clinicians, resulting in crosstalk, collaborations, and innovative new directions. A large number of oral presentations will be selected from the abstracts, and the selected talks, poster presentations, sessions on "Meet the experts: Guidance for your scientific career," and recreational activities will provide students and postdoctoral fellows opportunities to exchange ideas and formulate new collaborations. Funds have been secured to provide student/postdoc travel scholarships. … Continue reading →

A A Antibiotic resistance is one of the worlds most pressing public health problems. The number of bacteria resistant to antibiotics has increased in the last decade. Many bacterial infections are becoming resistant to the most commonly prescribed antibiotic treatments. Every time a person takes antibiotics, sensitive bacteria are killed, but resistant germs may be left, enjoying reduced competition to grow and multiply. Repeated and improper uses of antibiotics are primary causes of the increase in drug-resistant bacteria. Decreasing inappropriate antibiotic use is the best way to control resistance. Children are of particular concern because they have the highest rates of antibiotic use. Antibiotic resistance can cause significant danger and suffering for people who have common infections that once were easily treatable with antibiotics.

Bethesda, MD - This FASEB Science Research Conference focuses on cutting-edge research how protease networks operating at the blood-tissue interface contribute to the regulation of blood coagulation, endothelial cell and vascular biology, tissue repair and remodeling, developmental processes, common inflammatory diseases, sepsis, diabetes and cancer. A panel of leading experts and young scientists will highlight emerging concepts about the biochemical control of protease- substrate interactions, major technological advances allowing structural studies of these protease-substrate interactions in their natural environment, and novel insights into the biological contexts in which these interactions take place. A major incentive for this meeting is to foster interdisciplinary interactions and collaborations for developing novel protease-centered drugs, and facilitating the deployment of protease-modulating drugs that have already entered clinical practice or are in advanced stages of clinical development as therapeutics for stroke, myocardial infarction, venous and arterial thrombosis, bleeding disorders, and related cardiovascular disease. This SRC conference has an outstanding track record for bringing together leaders from basic research, translational clinical research, and industry, and for promoting the recruitment of young scientists into this vigorously growing field of research on protease / protease-receptor structure and function. FASEB has announced a total of 34 Science Research Conferences (SRC) … Continue reading →

Bethesda, MD - This FASEB Science Research Conference will focus on the basic biology of protein kinases and phosphorylation-dependent signaling networks, as well as their roles in human disease, bringing together established scientists, young investigators, and trainees. Essentially all cellular processes are controlled by reversible protein phosphorylation, and deregulated kinase activity is a hallmark of diseases such as cancer and diabetes. Accordingly, the conference will have an interdisciplinary focus, bringing together experts from diverse fields unified by a common interest in protein phosphorylation/dephosphorylation as a regulatory mechanism. Session topics will include areas traditionally at the forefront of kinase/phosphatase signaling, as well as emerging fields of research, including control of cell growth, nutrient sensing, cell division, and cell polarity. Talks in each session will span multiple disciplines including structural biology, biochemistry, proteomics, systems biology, cell biology, and translational research, with the aim of promoting cross-fertilization among these normally separate fields. The conference will feature ample opportunities for informal interaction to foster collaboration and promote the exchange of ideas. FASEB has announced a total of 34 Science Research Conferences (SRC) in 2015. Registration opens January 20, 2015.
