9814142 Zborowski A conference on "Scientific and Clinical Applications of Magnetic Carriers" is being convened by the Cleveland Clinic Foundation on May 28-30, 1998. The overall objective of the meeting is to provide an opportunity for investigators involved in the development and applications of magnetic microcarriers to discuss the current and future directions of the field. The conference is the second of what is expected to be a series of meetings that were initiated in Rostock, Germany in 1995. The National Science Foundation is providing funding for partial support of conference expenses for 15 U.S. academic researchers. Magnetic microcarriers are finding important applications in medicine such as nanoparticle contrast agents in diagnostic MRI procedures, drug delivery, automation of clinical chemistry, blood flow visualization, and magnetic fluid hyperthermia. Ways are being investigated to introduce such materials into viruses that seek out particular types of cells, with the potential these could be used as probes in non-invasive diagnostic techniques, particularly magnetic resonance imaging. Such microcarriers represent important developments in nanotechnology, which is an area of research with special interest to the Foundation. The meeting addresses an important and emerging field of research and application, is well organized, and contributes to research program planning as well as the assessment of new technologies. ***

9814142 Zborowski关于“磁性载体的科学和临床应用”的会议将于1998年5月28日至30日由克利夫兰临床基金会召开。 会议的总体目标是为参与磁性微载体开发和应用的研究人员提供一个讨论该领域当前和未来发展方向的机会。 这次会议是1995年在德国罗斯托克举行的一系列会议中的第二次。 美国国家科学基金会为15名美国学术研究人员的部分会议费用提供资助。 磁性微载体在医学中具有重要的应用，例如诊断MRI程序中的纳米颗粒造影剂、药物递送、临床化学自动化、血流可视化和磁流体热疗。 目前正在研究将这些材料引入寻找特定类型细胞的病毒中的方法，这些材料有可能用作非侵入性诊断技术，特别是磁共振成像的探针。 这种微载体代表了纳米技术的重要发展，这是基金会特别感兴趣的一个研究领域。 会议涉及一个重要的新兴研究和应用领域，组织良好，有助于研究计划规划和新技术的评估。 ***
