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]

One of the main objectives of the HBP is to create and operate six Information and Communications Technology (ICT) Platforms, which are the core of the emerging HBP research infrastructure for brain research. Starting 30 March 2016, the scientific community worldwide can begin exploring the initial versions of the six HBP ICT Platforms. The Platforms embody the key objectives of the HBP, to gather and disseminate data describing the brain, to simulate and build models of the brain, to develop brain-inspired computing and robotics, and to create a global scientific community around the developing research infrastructure. The Platforms consist of prototype hardware, software tools, databases, programming interfaces, and initial data-sets, which will be refined and expanded on an on-going basis in close collaboration with end-users. The development of the Platforms has been the result of an extensive multidisciplinary effort involving more than 750 scientific collaborators and engineers from 114 institutions in 24 countries. The Platforms are as follows: the Neuroinformatics Platform, the Brain Simulation Platform, the High Performance Analytics and Computing Platform, the Medical Informatics Platform, the Neuromorphic Computing Platform and the Neurorobotics Platform. ...

We wholeheartedly welcome you to the 55th Annual Meeting of the GV-SOLAS and 17th IGTP training in Cologne. Aging research is a key focus area represented in Cologne with the Max Planck Institute and CECAD, the Cluster of Excellence of the University of Cologne. How can animals be used to investigate the causes of the aging process and to develop successful therapies to treat age-related diseases such as cancer, diabetes, stroke or neurodegeneration? Such translational approaches regarding aging research will be a focus of the GV-Meeting 2017. Current developments in the field of targeted genetic modifications lead to expectations that the spectrum of genetically modified experimental animals with harmful phenotypes will increase and present the field of Laboratory Animal Science with new challenges. Initially limited to a few species, such genetic changes are now possible in a variety of organisms and can be performed quickly and with little expertise required. The conference will provide a platform for a lively exchange in this area. An integral part of our meeting in the form of seminars and workshops include classic laboratory animal issues such as veterinary medicine, nutrition, hygiene management, the application of the 3Rs principles, new developments and the practical implementation of the Protection of Animals Act and the General Administrative Directive for the Execution of the Protection of Animals Act, aspects of training and, not least, public relations. The always controversial debate about the the use of laboratory animals in research continues to have great social relevance. In this meeting, we want to provide insight in ways to support the acceptance of animal research using scientifically based justifications and logical, reasonable answers. I look forward to an exciting congress and to welcome you to the city of Cologne with its 2000 year history. ... [Information of the supplier]
