Spotlight on Science Meetings, Conferences and Events brings you information on the following: 5th International Conference on Clinical Pharmacy and Public Health
Clinical pharmacy is a branch of pharmacy which deals with the patient care and medication and promotes health, wellness and disease inhibition. The pharmacist works in management with the doctors for the patient healthcare. Clinical pharmacists have wide education in the biomedical, pharmaceutical, and clinical sciences. Clinical Pharmacy consist of all the services accomplished by pharmacists practicing in hospitals, community pharmacies, nursing homes, home-based care services, clinics and any other setting wherever medicines are prescribed and used. The term "clinical" does not necessarily suggest an action implemented in a hospital setting. It defines that the type of activity is connected to the health of the patients. This suggests that community pharmacists and hospital pharmacists both can accomplish clinical pharmacy activities.
The conference is gearing up for an exciting and informative program which include Keynote, plenary lectures, symposia, workshops on a variety of topics, poster presentations and various training programs for participants from all over the world covering all the latest aspects of Clinical Pharmacy.

Spotlight on Science Meetings, Conferences and Events brings you information on the following: Neurobiology of Drosophila to be held on 10/03/17 - 10/07/17.
This will be the seventeenth biennial Neurobiology of Drosophila meeting, which will be held at Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory. The meeting will begin at 7:30 pm on Tuesday, October 3, and will conclude after lunch on Saturday, October 7. This year’s meeting will continue the bi-annual tradition of providing a forum for presentation of the most exciting and cutting-edge research currently ongoing in the field of neuroscience using the Drosophila model. With sessions ranging from synaptic transmission and neuronal development all the way to higher brain function and disease modeling, the program will provide broad coverage of the field from molecular to systems neuroscience. In addition, sessions focusing on technological innovations will supplement the program, allowing for dissemination of new methods that are revolutionizing neuroscience research.

Spotlight on Science Meetings, Conferences and Events brings you information on the following: Genome Integrity Discussion Group to be held on 10/02/17.
The connection between cancer and genome integrity is widely appreciated. Importantly, the greater New York Metropolitan area is unparalleled in the concentration of world leading research on chromosome biology and function, as well as for research at the interface between chromosome integrity and the dynamics of malignancy. The Genome Integrity Discussion Group capitalize on this concentration of excellence, providing a forum for interaction between basic- and clinically-oriented research groups working in these fields. These meetings not only facilitate synergy between labs, but also provide a context in which previously unappreciated complementarities can be revealed.
In that spirit, the talks will cover a broad range of areas, including, but not limited to the DNA damage response and cancer predisposition, DNA replication, transcription, chromatin modification, recombination, cell cycle control, telomeres, chromosome segregation, epigenetic states, as well as the emergence of new technologies relevant to research in genome integrity. Although a primary focus is upon basic mechanisms and processes, these areas are pertinent to cancer and myriad human disease states, and it is expected that this will be reflected in the substance of our discussions. At each of the meetings, two early career scientists (students or postdocs) are selected to present data.
