Metals in gene regulation or drug therapy
Metal-nucleic acid interactions
Methods: EPR, NMR, MCD, ENDOR, Mossbauer, EXAFS, Raman
Metals: Fe (heme, non-heme, iron sulfur); Cu, Co, Mn, V, Mo, Ni, Au etc.
Abstracts will be due in October. The exact content of the conference will
be organized around the papers submitted. Papers not selected for oral
presentation will be presented during one of three poster sessions. One of
these poster sessions will be a joint session with the Metals in Biology
conference on the first evening of the GRSBI.
This is a unique opportunity for young scientists to see current and
innovative work and to present their work to the scientific community
in a relaxed environment comprised of peers and future collaborators.
Sessions will be lead by established researchers in the field, promoting
cross talk and in-depth discussion of papers.
