An international conference on "Calcium and Cell Function" will be held July 9-14, 2000 at Copper Mountain, Colorado, under the auspices of the Federation of the American Societies of Experimental Biology (FASEB). The conference will focus on recent advances in the molecular biology of intracellular calcium regulation and the numerous roles of calcium ions in regulation of cell function. The topics to be covered are: molecular biology of calcium entry and intracellular stores; regulation of intracellular calcium dynamics; decoding of calcium signals; calcium function in the nucleus, in mitochondria, and in membrane traffic; and the physiology and pathology of multicellular calcium signaling. The overall goal is to bring together a diverse group of scientists working on all phases of calcium and its role in cell function in an atmosphere conducive to informal exchange of ideas. The format of this conference will be similar to that of previous FASEB Summer Research Conferences. There will be a total of 8 morning and evening sessions of 3-4 speakers each and 1 keynote lecture. Afternoons are free to encourage informal interactions between invited speakers and participants. Poster presentations are an important part of such interactions and four 2-hour sessions are reserved for poster discussion. In addition, to enhance participation by junior attendees, time has been set aside for 4 short talks based on the best posters submitted. This is the major long-standing conference in North America that focuses entirely on calcium and covers the spectrum of calcium research rather than a single subdiscipline. Conferences are held every two years. Particular effort has been made to minimize overlap in topics and speakers with other calcium-related meetings such as the Gordon Conference on Calcium Signaling and the International Symposium on Calcium-Binding Proteins and Calcium Function in Health and Disease, both held in alternating, odd-numbered years. The FASEB conference is always oversubscribed and has received high ratings from previous participants.

由美国实验生物学学会联合会（FASEB）主办的“钙与细胞功能”国际会议将于2000年7月9日至14日在科罗拉多的铜山举行。会议将集中在细胞内钙离子调节的分子生物学的最新进展和钙离子在细胞功能调节中的众多作用。所涵盖的主题是：钙进入和细胞内储存的分子生物学;细胞内钙动力学的调节;钙信号的解码;细胞核、线粒体和膜交通中的钙功能;以及多细胞钙信号的生理学和病理学。总的目标是汇集一组不同的科学家，他们致力于钙的所有阶段及其在细胞功能中的作用，在一个有利于非正式交流思想的气氛中。本次会议的形式将类似于以前的FASEB夏季研究会议。将有8个上午和晚上的会议，每个3-4个发言者和1个主题演讲。下午是自由的，以鼓励受邀发言者和与会者之间的非正式互动。海报展示是这种互动的重要组成部分，并保留了四个2小时的会议海报讨论。此外，为了提高初级与会者的参与度，根据提交的最佳海报，安排了4次简短的演讲。这是北美主要的长期会议，完全关注钙，涵盖钙研究的范围，而不是一个单一的子学科。会议每两年举行一次。特别努力减少与其他钙相关会议的主题和发言者的重叠，如钙信号戈登会议和钙结合蛋白质和钙在健康和疾病中的功能国际研讨会，两者都在奇数年交替举行。FASEB会议总是超额认购，并获得了以前参与者的高度评价。
