Applied Psychology and Behavioral Medicine 2018 predominantly concentrates on the appraisal of human conduct and finding of mental issue in complex sick patients. It is likewise useful for building associations with advance prosperity of human strength by opening the puzzles of mental riches and positive development for a superior society. The gathering welcomes members from every single leading universities, medical centers, global hospitals, clinical research institutions and diagnostic companies to share their research views and knowledge on all parts of these quickly extending fields of Applied Psychology and Behavioral Medicine.

Regenerative Medicine 2018 will encompass recent researches, findings, cognizant discussions on novel subjects like Materials & Designs for Cell Therapy, Tissue Regeneration, Stem Cell–Tools to Battle Cancer, Bioreactors in Tissue Engineering, Regeneration & Therapeutics, Cord Blood & Regenerative Medicine and Clinical Medicine, to mention a few. The two days event implants a firm relation of upcoming strategies in the field of Cell Therapy & Regenerative Medicine with the scientific community from around the world.

Advances in the generation and selection of antibodies from combinatorial libraries allow for the rapid production of antibodies from immune and non-immune sources. This intensive laboratory/lecture course will focus on the construction of combinatorial antibody libraries expressed on the surface of filamentous phage and the subsequent selection of desired antibodies from the library. Students will learn the theoretical and practical aspects of constructing combinatorial libraries from immune and non-immune sources as well as the construction of synthetic antibody libraries. Antigen-specific recombinant monoclonal antibodies will be selected from the library. Production, purification and characterization of antibody fragments expressed in E. coli will also be covered.

The lecture series, presented by course faculty and a number of invited speakers, will emphasize theory and practice of antibody display technologies, expression of antibodies in E. coli and mammalian cells, antibody structure and function, bacterial display of antibodies and other ligand-binding domains, the immunobiology of the antibody response, and the use of monoclonal antibodies for therapy including the design of chimeric antigen receptor T cells. We will also discuss principles and protocols for generation and analysis of immune repertoires determined by Next Generation Sequencing.

Whether you have no prior training or work experience in quantitative risk analysis, or if you want to further improve your risk analysis skills, you will be interested in our course, Epidemiology and Food Safety Risk Analysis (formerly Animal Agriculture & Food Safety Risk Analysis and Disease Modeling).

This 5-day class covers the basic principles of risk analysis, essential probability and statistics theory, stochastic processes, core risk modeling principles, and incorporates the latest innovations in modeling methods. Thanks to the case studies that guide participants through the main steps in developing a risk assessment model, it provides participants with hands-on skills to effectively use a risk modeling software environment, while learning good practices and common mistakes to avoid.

The 11th World Conference on Cell and Tissue Science 2018 Will bring together world-class personalities working on stem cells, cell therapy, organ regeneration, tissue engineering and regenerative medicine to discuss materials-related strategies for disease remediation and tissue repair. Bone and Cartilage Tissue Engineering, Tooth regeneration, Biological tissue substitution, organ regeneration, tissue regeneration and care a special focus along with applying basic science and engineering principles from diverse areas towards solving clinically relevant biomedical problems.

This meeting will have oral talks, keynote and poster presentations and Exhibitions. The point of Nutrition Meeting 2018 is to unite Scientists, Researchers, teachers, Business delegates, students and research associates to tell about their experience and knowledge and also about the research they are working on, in the field of Nutrition Science, Food Science and Health Science.

The aim of  Nutrition Meetings 2018 is to give a platform for Nutritionists to put forth their research studies and experiences before a global gathering of individuals who have a keen interest in the field of Nutrition. President's, CEO's, delegates and officials from various fields of Nutrition and health sciences are invited to take part in the mind opening sessions, gathering and presentations.

This is a unique didactic/hands-on workshop that provides a comprehensive overview of respiratory biology and, in particular, the use of mice as model systems of human lung diseases. The objectives of the workshop include reviews of basic lung biology, structure-function issues surrounding respiratory mechanics, immune responses linked with the pulmonary compartments as well as the lung microenvironment, and the techniques/strategies for reproducible measurements of lung function in mice. Laboratory-based exercises will provide participants with hands-on experience measuring airway hyper-responsiveness (AHR), lung volumes and pressure-volume (PV) curves, lung morphometry, sampling techniques and mouse lung histopathology. In addition, the course will review basic mouse genetics, housing and breeding strategies, and survival surgical techniques. The course faculty is comprised of prominent members of the research community who are supported by a core group of research scientists providing insights into cutting edge technologies and experimental strategies. 

Part of this workshop includes pathology sessions.  If you have any FIXED slides you would like to have analyzed by the workshop pathologist, please bring them with you.  Additionally, if you have any interesting FIXED slides you would like to share with the group, please bring these as well.  IMPORTANT NOTE: DO NOT BRING FRESH TISSUE TO THE JACKSON LABORATORY!

Participants completing this workshop will have a working knowledge of basic pulmonary biology and the pathophysiology/histopathology accompanying lung diseases. More importantly, participants will gain the needed exposure to laboratory-based techniques for quantifying pulmonary structure, immunobiology, and lung function – all key endpoint metrics needed to utilize mice as model systems of human respiratory diseases.
