Spotlight on Science Meetings, Conferences and Events brings you information on the following event: 2017 2nd DNA Replication as a Source of DNA Damage Conference

The maintenance of genome integrity is critical for the suppression of cancer and premature ageing. Only recently has it become appreciated that DNA replication stress is a crucial driver of genomic instability. The timely progression of replisomes can be disrupted by lesions and secondary structures in the template, by bound proteins and by conflicts with the transcription machinery. A prolonged pause of the replisome then exposes single stranded DNA, which, due to its recombinogenic nature, can lead to genome rearrangements, fragile site expression and cell death. Importantly, some cancers present excessive endogenous levels of replication stress, which can be exploited for their clearance. In this conference, we aim to bring together scientists studying DNA replication and repair, with those interested in how DNA damage can influence cancer and ageing.

Spotlight on Science Meetings, Conferences and Events brings you information on the following: The Bioprocessing Summit 2017 to be held on 8/21/17 - 8/25/17

The Bioprocessing Summit convenes more than 1,000 international bioprocess professionals to share practical solutions for today's bioprocess challenges. Now in its ninth year, the event has grown to include 18 distinct conferences with weeklong programming on upstream and downstream processing, analytical development and quality, formulation and stability, cell and gene therapy production, and manufacturing. Along with the impressive array of conferences, the Summit also includes short courses and training seminars that provide in-depth coverage of critical bioprocess topics.

Spotlight on Science Meetings, Conferences and Events brings you information on the following: FASEB Conference on Lysophospholipid and Related Mediators - From Bench to Clinic to be held on 8/20/17 - 8/25/17

This is the leading international conference in lysophospholipid biology, attracting participants from all continents. This SRC will focus on the physiological and pathophysiological roles of sphingosine 1-phosphate, lysophosphatidic acid and other lysophospholipids.  New and established basic scientists, clinical researchers, academics and industry partners are brought together to share expertise and foster collaboration, thereby accelerating the pace of scientific discovery and facilitating translation from early research to clinical practice.  Indeed, the development of Fingolimod, the first oral treatment for multiple sclerosis, is an excellent example of this, as first reported at this conference in 2001.

The conference provides opportunities for substantive interactions between early-stage and established basic, translational and pharmaceutical investigators with an interest in lysophospholipid biology in health and disease.  Presentations and posters (with several prizes) will range from molecular aspects of lysophospholipid biology through to emerging therapeutics, genetic and disease models and molecular modelling.  Late-breaking scientific advances and junior investigators will feature on the final program, which includes keynote lectures, the Journal of Lipid Research Lectureship and a careers workshop for early career scientists.

Spotlight on Science Meetings, Conferences and Events brings you information on the following: Epigenetics Boot Camp to be held on 8/21/17 - 8/22/17

This two-day intensive boot camp integrates the principle concepts of epigenetics and the effects of risk factors on the epigenome as we step through the key components of designing and executing DNA methylation studies. Led by a team of scientists with more than 31 years of combined expertise in the field of environmental epigenetics, the workshop will integrate seminar lectures with hands-on computer sessions to put concepts into practice. Emphasis will be given to leveraging existing resources from ongoing studies and initiating new investigations. The afternoon lab sessions will provide an opportunity to work hands-on with real methylation data generated by the Illumina Infinium MethylationEPIC (850k) BeadChip platform. Participants will learn and practice data handling, cleaning, and basic analysis of epigenome-wide DNA methylation data.

By the end of the workshop, participants will be familiar with the following topics:

• Principles of epigenetics
• Concept ideation and study design
• Sample collection and processing
• Laboratory methods and platforms for analysis
• Data handling and cleaning
• Data analysis
• Study design advantages and pitfalls
• Emerging epigenetic topics and laboratory platforms

Investigators at all career stages are welcome to attend, and we particularly encourage trainees and early-stage investigators to participate.

Spotlight on Science Meetings, Conferences and Events brings you information on the following event: ICRS Heritage Summit 2017

The word heritage is referring to important historical events that have a special meaning in a society like the ICRS. In 1997, the ICRS was formed in Fribourg, Switzerland and 10 years earlier for 30 years in October 1987, the first autologous chondrocyte implantation was performed in Gothenburg, Sweden. Those events are important milestones for basic scientist and clinical researchers devoted to the mysteries of cartilaginous tissues and their development, degeneration and repair. We within the ICRS have subsequently wanted to celebrate those birthdays with a special heritage meeting to be held in Gothenburg June 29th-July the 1st 2017 at Gothia Towers, Gothenburg, Sweden. It is a meeting which will focus on the past, present and the future of cartilage science; what have we learned and what we can do for the next 30 years?
