Conference: Ubiquitin and Cellular Regulation to be held June 26- July 1, 2004, in Saxtons River, Vermont.

这是一个FASEB夏季会议，题为"泛素和细胞调节"将于2004年6月26日至7月1日在佛蒙特州学院举行。自1989年以来，FASEB一直赞助关于泛素化的领先会议，当时该领域发展到临界质量。该会议每两年举行一次，但本次会议除外，上次会议是在2001年举行的。会议的使命随着实地情况的变化而发生了变化。有一段时间，该领域每个主要实验室的PI都可以进行25分钟的演讲。在90年代后期，随着该领域的爆炸，有必要仔细关注最新和最重要的发展。最后一次会议被59%的与会者评为他们参加过的最好的会议。该领域的新来者作为发言者参加了会议，并介绍了广泛的进展情况。从摘要中选出的简短演讲与更成熟的研究人员一起展示。2004年会议将继续这些公约。会议将介绍几个全新的主题，反映了最近才被认识到的泛素化的主要细胞作用。泛素和泛素样蛋白领域继续以惊人的速度扩展，新的实验室不断加入，强调了将人们聚集在一起参加这样一个会议的重要性。在植物中，超过5%的基因组显然致力于泛素化。对哺乳动物也进行了类似的估计。会议将通过特邀演讲者和从摘要中选出的演讲来突出最近的进展。将特别注意新的和任职人数不足的调查员群体。这次会议有一个突出的传统，紧张的海报会议。根据以往的经验，这次会议的报名人数将大幅度超额。为了加强与会者之间的互动，会议限制在大约175名与会者。

This is a FASEB summer conference entitled "Ubiquitin and Cellular Regulation" to be held June 26-July 1, 2004, at Vermont Academy. FASEB has sponsored the leading conference on ubiquitination since 1989, when this field grew to a critical mass. The meeting is held biennially, except in the present case, where the last meeting was in 2001. The mission of the meeting has shifted in response to the changing landscape of the field. At one time, the PI of every major lab in the field could expect to deliver a 25-minute talk. In the late 90's, as the field exploded, it became necessary to focus carefully on the newest and most significant developments. The last meeting was rated by 59% of participants as the best meeting they had ever attended. Newcomers to the field participated as speakers and a wide range of advances was presented. Short talks selected from abstracts were presented alongside more established researchers. The 2004 conference will continue these conventions. Several entirely new topics for sessions will be introduced, reflecting major cellular roles of ubiquitination that have only recently been recognized. The field of ubiquitin and ubiquitin-like proteins continues to expand at a striking pace, with new labs constantly joining, emphasizing the importance of bringing people together at such a meeting. Over 5% of the genome is apparently devoted to ubiquitination in plants. Similar estimates have been made for mammals. The meeting will highlight recent advances through invited speakers and talks selected from abstracts. Special attention will be given to new and underrepresented groups of investigators. This conference has an outstanding tradition of intense poster sessions. Based on past experience, the conference will be oversubscribed by a large margin. To foster strong interactions among participants, the conference is limited to approximately 175 participants.
