Abstract deadline = 05th November
This conference will emphasize the biological and biomedical applications of single cell approaches, including dynamic live cell measurements, to better understand the molecular control of cell fates and multi-cellular tissue generation in health and disease.
How Cells Integrate Biochemical Signals, Cytoskeletal Changes and Physical Forces to Guide Migration
The conference will explore the commonalities between signaling in development, regeneration and homeostasis. Will leverage quantitative, single cell and systems biology to study the dynamics and integration of developmental signaling, and highlight how perturbations in developmental pathways cause diseases.
Linking Form to Function: Developmental, Regenerative and Evolutionary Processes Defining Secretory Organs
The first Developmental Biology Symposium to be held at the Francis Crick Institute, honoring Rosa Beddington FRS, who led the Division of Mammalian Development at the MRC National Institute for Medical Research from 1993 until her untimely death in 2001.
The 6th Nucleic Acids Conference will focus on understanding processes involving DNA and RNA at the molecular and chemical level, with a marked structural and mechanistic perspective.
Bringing together researchers from different disciplines with an interest in FGF biology/biochemistry and clinical applications to meet each other, to discuss their projects and to initiate new and in some cases highly interdisciplinary research projects and collaborations.
This conference will focus on understanding key processes underlying lung development, injury and repair in the context of age, environment and species, with the hope of better understanding disease development and to discover novel therapeutic approaches.
Organizers: Ulrich Technau, Eli Arama
Abstract submission deadline: November 15, 2018
The conference will bring together basic, translational and clinical investigators to discuss the current and future directions, opportunities and obstacles in the development of anti-cancer modalities and how to best apply these concepts in clinical practice.
Cell competition represents a radical departure from the established view that embryonic development is simply a matter of following a preprogrammed set of rules. This conference brings together researchers from diverse fields who study competitive and cooperative interactions between cells.
The conference will bring together researchers interested in better characterizing the non-random organization of the genome while also revealing how this organization is influenced by various cues or disease conditions.
This meeting will bring together scientists who study diverse aspects of mitochondrial biology in order to stimulate interaction and cross fertilization of ideas, leading to new collaborations and synergistic advances.
The meeting will explore the topic of aging, placing particular emphasis on the systemic environment, mitochondria, biomarkers and frailty, immune aging and the protective effects of natural products.
The conference will bring together leaders from diverse fields such as embryonic cortical development, adult neurogenesis, human imaging, and stem cell-based neural disease modelling to discuss recent advances in understanding the cellular and molecular mechanisms regulating neural stem cell activity.
Researchers working on all aspects of fungi attend the 30th Fungal Genetics Conference in Pacific Grove, CA! Communication and collaboration between those interested in genomics, gene regulation, cell biology and development, evolutionary biology, fungal-host interactions, and biotechnology is encouraged.
