U.S.-Japan Seminar: Gene Regulation and Expression in Mitochondrial Disease and the Aging Process/December 1992/ Honolulu, Hawaii

该奖项将支持10名美国科学家参与一项 美国--日本基因调控与表达研讨会 线粒体疾病和衰老过程。 这次研讨会 将于1992年12月7日至12日在夏威夷的檀香山举行， 由分子生物学研究所Roderick Capaldi教授共同组织 生物学，俄勒冈州大学，和小泽隆之博士， 名古屋大学医学部生物化学教室。 的 研讨会将集中在基础研究的最新发展， 线粒体生物发生，结合科学家的兴趣， 研究氧化磷酸化的基本过程， 研究各种疾病中的线粒体功能障碍， 衰老的过程 除了美国和日本的科学家， 研讨会将包括来自澳大利亚的研究人员。 这次研讨会 1987年12月，成功举办了一次研讨会。 研讨会的主题是：线粒体的结构和复制 DNA，线粒体分子生物学调控，生物化学 线粒体酶复合体的生物能量学及其与 线粒体疾病，线粒体突变的性质 与疾病、线粒体和衰老过程相关， 线粒体疾病的治疗。 研讨会的目的是 鼓励分享专业知识，这可能导致 在这一重要的研究领域开展合作。

This award will support the participation of ten U.S. scientists in a U.S.-Japan Seminar on Gene Regulation and Expression in Mitochondrial Disease and the Aging Process. The seminar, which will be held December 7-12, 1992, in Honolulu, Hawaii, is being co-organized by Professor Roderick Capaldi, Institute of Molecular Biology, University of Oregon, and Dr. Takayuki Ozawa, Department of Biomedical Chemistry, Nagoya University. The seminar will focus on the latest developments in basic research on mitochondrial biogenesis, combining the interests of scientists who study the basic process of oxidative phosphorylation with those who study mitochondrial dysfunction in a wide variety of diseases and in the aging process. In addition to U.S. and Japanese scientists, the seminar will include researchers from Australia. This seminar follows a successful seminar in December 1987. The seminar topics are: structure and replication of mitochondrial DNA, regulation of mitochondrial molecular biology, biochemistry of mitochondrial enzyme complexes, bioenergetics and relationship to mitochondrial disease, nature of mitochondrial mutations associated with disease, mitochondria and the aging process, and treatment of mitochondrial diseases. The goal of the seminar is to encourage the sharing of expertise, which could lead to collaboration in this important area of research.
