Das Biologicum Almtal ist eine jährliche Veranstaltung für die populäre Vermittlung biologischer Wissenschaft und ihrer internationalen Spitzenforschung. Wissenschaftlicher Leiter des Biologicum Almtal ist der Verhaltensbiologe Prof. Dr. Kurt Kotrschal. Es befasst sich als transdisziplinäres wissenschaftliches Symposium mit den zentralen Themen der modernen Biologie, immer mit dem Blick auf den Menschen. Das 1. Biologicum Almtal 2014 will die aktuellen wissenschaftlichen Erkenntnisse von den Emotionen beim Menschen und anderen Tieren vermitteln, ihre Funktionen, ihren Ausdruck im Verhalten, ihre Entstehung, die zugehörigen Hirnmechanismen. Es will aber auch die Grenzen ihrer Erforschbarkeit zwischen Messbarem und subjektivem Empfinden diskutieren und damit auch einen Spiegel für die eigenen Gefühle bereitstellen. ...

An international research consortium has been formed to create the most detailed and medically useful picture to date of human genetic variation. The 1000 Genomes Project will involve sequencing the genomes of at least a thousand people from around the world. The project will receive major support from the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute in Hinxton, England, the Beijing Genomics Institute Shenzhen in China and the National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI), part of the National Institutes of Health (NIH). Drawing on the expertise of multidisciplinary research teams, the 1000 Genomes Project will develop a new map of the human genome that will provide a view of biomedically relevant DNA variations at a resolution unmatched by current resources. As with other major human genome reference projects, data from the 1000 Genomes Project will be made swiftly available to the worldwide scientific community through freely accessible public databases. ...

Unter dem Vorsitz von Professor Eva-Maria Neher wird die 129. Versammlung der Gesellschaft Deutscher Naturforscher und Ärzte e. V. (GDNÄ) von Freitag, 9. September bis Montag, 12. September 2016 in der Universitäts- und Hansestadt Greifswald stattfinden. Das Thema der diesjährigen Versammlung ist: „Naturwissenschaft und Medizin – zwischen Kontinuität und Umbruch“. Mit dieser Schwerpunktsetzung machen wir deutlich, worauf wissenschaftliche Durchbrüche unserer Zeit beruhen – auf der kontinuierlichen Arbeit von Generationen herausragender Wissenschaftler. Neben dem Nobelpreisträger Stefan Hell, den Fusions- und Infektions-Experten aus Greifswald, 20 Vorträgen zu aktuellen Forschungsthemen und einem exklusiven Exkursionsprogramm, bietet die 129. Versammlung mit ihrem Veranstaltungsort Greifswald Urlaubsflair und Wissenschaftstradition zugleich. ... [Information des Anbieters]
The American Society for Cell Biology will hold its annual meeting in december 2013 in New Orleans. As the premier international meeting in the field of cell biology, the ASCB Annual Meeting is intended for scientists and students in academia, industry, government, and higher education. Over 100 scientific sessions and 2,500 poster presentations cover a variety of scientific areas within the discipline. With opportunities to learn about the latest research and network with peers, the ASCB Annual Meeting appeals to the diverse interests of the international cell biology community. ...

By the time scientists arrive in San Diego in December 2015, an estimated 40,000 papers on cell biology will have been published since the 2014 meeting. Even more data will be available on imaging, protein structures, genomics, gene expression, and more. Our challenge is to convert this information into meaningful knowledge to understand how cells work. The 2015 ASCB meeting overarching theme is about making connections at different scales, from the intracellular level to the tissue level, to the organism level all the way up to the macrocosmic level, all in the light of big data and information integration. This integration will help us ask the right questions and find answers to the challenging problems in medicine, living systems, and ecosystems. Cell biology is increasingly relevant not only to those who think of themselves as cell biologists but also to more specialized researchers in neuroscience, immunology, cancer biology, synthetic biology, biophysics, molecular medicine, and more. ...
