Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) is more and more acknowledged as one of the central small molecules that connects cellular metabolism with signaling mechanisms, biological regulation and human disease. This is an outstanding scientific conference covering the diverse roles of NAD and its derivatives in metabolism and cellular signaling. Six sessions are devoted to NAD-dependent enzymes and their roles in metabolism and physiology, in regulating chromatin and transcription, in genome integrity, and in cancer and other diseases. Signaling mechanisms involving NAD-derived second messengers as well as poly- and mono-ADP-ribosylation combined with chemical biology of NAD will complete the program. A main aspect of this conference will be to foster exchange of information and technology between researchers working on the biochemical, molecular, genetic and cell biological aspects of NAD and related molecules. Moreover, the conference will provide a unique venue for those researchers worldwide who are interested in the basic and translational aspects of NAD metabolism and signaling. ...

The word "aging" encompasses a range of physiological changes in humans, human tissues, and constituent cells. Alterations in metabolism, whether at the level of small molecules, protein homeostasis, signaling patterns, or intertissue communication, underpin many of the processes that ultimately decline or shift during aging. The recent wealth of information on how perturbation of metabolic factors can accelerate or impair aging processes makes this an exciting time to convene and consider the new biology being uncovered, its potential impact on human health, and the implications for the coming age of precision medicine. This meeting brings together scientists who have interests in aging and metabolism to explore the growing intersection between these fields and to discuss key questions in this area for human health and disease. Leaders in the field will share results from cellular research, investigations in model organisms, and studies with translational impact rooted in mammalian systems. ... [Editorial staff vifabio]
The field of immunometabolism has thrived over the last decade, revealing not only the major roles played by immune cells in metabolic homeostasis but also the impact of metabolic pathways on immune cell function. As new discoveries continue to reveal the intricate links between immunology and metabolism, a key question arises: will our accumulated knowledge on immunometabolic deregulations translate into novel therapies for human diseases? During this Cell Symposium, you will hear about the latest advances in immunometabolism from physician-scientists, basic researchers and industry leaders. We will discuss how local and systemic metabolism are integrated at the cellular level to regulate immune cell function and we will focus on how novel insights into immunometabolism can be harnessed to advance and/or bolster therapeutic interventions in metabolic diseases, inflammation, autoimmunity, and cancer. ...

We are pleased to confirm the 18th International Congress on Photosynthesis Research will take place August 7 – 12, 2022. However, at the current time the New Zealand government expects that in August the border will be only partially open and visitors to the country will still need to quarantine. Therefore, the Congress will be presented in a virtual format, thus enabling everyone to fully participate. By working with online meeting professionals, the virtual format will optimise personal interactions and also allow the meeting to be recorded. This will enable attendees to catch up on any aspects they had to miss while providing the added benefit of not disturbing biological clocks too badly. ... [Information of the supplier]
We are pleased to announce that the next International Symposium on Plant Photobiology will take place from Monday 3 - Thursday 6 June 2013. This will be hosted by The University of Edinburgh and chaired by Dr Karen Halliday and the organising committee. This will be held within the University of Edinburgh at the John McIntyre Conference Centre within the Pollock Halls Campus. Registration for this conference is now open please use the link below to book your delegate place and accommodation. This conference will provide a platform for plant photobiologists and those interested to show advances of their researches, to exchange and debate different ideas, hypotheses, and to share newly developed approaches for the advancement of this field. A must attend for all plant scientists. ... [Information of the supplier]
We warmly invite you to be a part of the 24th International Conference on Arabidopsis Research (ICAR), the largest annual international scientific conference devoted to Arabidopsis thaliana – a model plant worked with by an estimated 16,000 labs around the world. Experiments performed in Arabidopsis often underpin plant research in general and Arabidopsis-driven research leads the way with technologies and concepts. The conference will be held in the recently refurbished Sydney Convention and Exhibition Centre. With its prime Darling Harbour waterfront location and world-class facilities, the Sydney Convention and Exhibition Centre is adjacent to a wonderful array of restaurants to suit everyone’s budget, and within close walking distance of a variety of hotels, motels and apartments. Sporting and cultural events and shopping opportunities are a major part of life in Sydney and the integrated transport network of trains and buses make it easy and comfortable to get around. Sydney is one of the most dynamic cities of the Asia-Pacific region. It is renowned for scientific research and development and technological progress. Combined, these features will ensure a large and successful meeting. We hope you will take this unique opportunity to enjoy four days of plant science in Sydney and look forward to welcoming you "Down Under". ... [Information of the supplier]
We warmly welcome you to be a part of the 25th International Conference on Arabidopsis Research (ICAR), the largest annual international scientific conference devoted to Arabidopsis thaliana. The majority of breakthroughs in plant science in the last 25 years have relied on development of Arabidopsis thaliana as the reference for both research and international collaboration. The 2014 conference takes place in the beautiful Pacific Northwest at the University of British Columbia in Vancouver, Canada. ... [Information of the supplier]
