FASEB SRC: Gastrointestinal Tract XV: Epithelia, Microbes, Inflammation and Cancer
Meeting - Steamboat Springs, CO, United States
The scientific focus of the 2013 program represents rapidly growing fields of interest in many gastrointestinal disciplines including epithelial biology, functional host-microbial relationships, mucosal inflammation & immune response, stem cells, development, and neoplasia. Each day is thematically organized, and the invited speakers will introduce research topics covering conceptual and technological advances in fields ranging from the intestinal epithelial stem cell markers, new animal disease models and potential new disease treatments, new concepts in gut microbial ecology, leukocyte trafficking, epithelial barrier function, gene regulation, innate and adaptive mucosal immunology, and developmental biology.
One important area of emphasis will be translation of basic findings to diseases such as inflammatory bowel disease and intestinal cancer. The meeting will encompass subjects relevant to important gastrointestinal diseases and will include a number of presentations highly relevant to microbiology of pathogen and commensal interaction with the host, mucosal immune cell function, epithelial biology, and gastrointestinal cancer.
