The FASEB Summer Research Conference on "Trace Element Metabolism: From Model Organisms to Humans" will be held at Snowmass, Colorado June 15-20, 2008. Trace elements are essential nutrients and, as such, are of vital importance in medicine, agriculture and the inter-relationship between agriculture and human health. This conference will focus on topics covering the most exciting and important breakthroughs in understanding both basic and applied aspects of trace element metabolism. In this meeting, the focus will be on the trace elements iron (Fe), copper (Cu), zinc (Zn), selenium (Se) and boron (B), as they constitute a group of trace elements that serve critical roles in biology. As is evidenced by the dramatic increase in the number of newly discovered biological processes in which trace elements play pivotal roles as catalysts, sensors, regulatory molecules and structural co-factors, this field of investigation is expanding at an extremely rapid pace. The specific objectives are to (1) organize and support a meeting on the latest scientific advances in the research area of trace element metabolism (2) promote interactions between scientists and trainees to share new discoveries in the field of trace element metabolism as it relates to normal growth, development and nutrition and to enhance training and new collaborations that will move the field forward and (3) to directly involve newly independent scientists and trainees including graduate students and postdoctoral fellows, women, minorities and the disabled in the conference. The broader impacts of the conference include providing access to cutting edge science via oral and poster presentations, to allow opportunities for interactions between trainees and established investigators and to encourage and support long-term and significant advances in this important area of research.

FASEB夏季研究会议关于“微量元素代谢：从模型生物到人类”将于2008年6月15日至20日在科罗拉多州的雪麦片举行。痕量元素是必不可少的营养素，因此，在医学，农业和农业与农业和人类健康之间的关系中至关重要。 这次会议将重点介绍涵盖痕量元素代谢的基本和应用方面的最令人兴奋和最重要的突破。 在这次会议上，重点将放在痕量元素铁（Fe），铜（Cu），锌（Zn），硒（SE）和硼（b）上，因为它们构成了在生物学中起关键作用的痕量元素。 正如新发现的生物学过程数量的急剧增加所证明的那样，痕量元素随着催化剂，传感器，调节分子和结构共同因素的关键作用而发挥关键作用，这种研究领域正在以极快的速度扩展。 具体目标是（1）组织和支持痕量要素代谢的研究领域的最新科学进步（2）促进科学家和受训者之间的互动，以分享痕量要素代谢领域的新发现，因为它与正常成长，发展，发展和营养有关，并促进新的培训和培训的培训和培训，并将新独立的科学培训（3）培养（3）培训，并培养了新独立的培训，并（3）培训（3）会议中的妇女，少数民族和残疾人。会议的更广泛影响包括通过口头和海报演示提供获得尖端科学的访问，以便为受训者与既定调查人员之间的互动机会提供机会，并鼓励和支持这一重要研究领域的长期和重大进步。
