9th International Conference on Biological Inorganic Chemistry

该奖项为参加于1999年7月11日至16日在明尼苏达州明尼阿波利斯举行的第九届国际生物无机化学会议(ICBIC9)的博士后助理和研究生提供支持。该奖项由美国国家科学基金会化学、分子和细胞生物科学部颁发给明尼苏达大学化学系的玛丽安·T·斯坦科维奇博士和劳伦斯·奎克博士。这次国际会议的目的是将生物学和生物化学的研究人员与无机化学家聚集在一起，促进这些小组之间的合作和信息交流。会议的大部分内容将集中于在新陈代谢和健康中发挥重要作用的金属酶。会议将按照非传统路线组织，包括以下内容：金属辅因子组装、蛋白质自由基、氧中间体、信号、金属代谢、核酶、多肽加工和远程电子转移。

This award provides support for postdoctoral associates and graduate students to attend the Ninth International Conference on Biological Inorganic Chemistry (ICBIC9) to be held July 11-16, 1999, in Minneapolis, Minnesota. The award is made to Drs. Marian T. Stankovich and Lawrence Que of the Chemistry Department, University of Minnesota, by the NSF Divisions of Chemistry and Molecular and Cellular Biosciences. The purpose of this international conference is to bring researchers in biology and biochemistry together with inorganic chemists to stimulate collaborations and information exchange among these groups. Much of the conference will focus on metalloenzymes that play important roles in metabolism and health. Sessions will be organized along non-traditional lines and include the following: metal cofactor assembly, protein radicals, oxygen intermediates, signaling, metal metabolism, ribozymes, peptide processing, and long range electron transfer.
