2010 GRC Bioanalytical Sensors Conference

本次会议的目的是为讨论生物化学、生物学、化学、工程、医学和物理学中未发表的数据提供一个渠道，因为它们适用于生物分析传感器的开发和应用。这一目标将通过与会者积极参与两次海报会议、非正式讨论和9次口头会议（有30名发言者和9名讨论负责人）来实现。这里讨论的数据将涵盖不同的领域，并将涉及以下主题：1)使用替代标准抗体和核酸探针的分子识别，2)光学，电化学和机械检测的最新进展，3)现实世界应用和体内传感，4)使用纳米技术促进对分子相互作用的理解和传感器设计和应用的改进，以及5)支持/使能技术。具体主题将包括（但不限于）基于单分子的探针，细胞内传感，具有增强光学或电子特性的生物材料，纳米颗粒，生物相容性和生物/非生物界面，小型化和自动化，以及复杂基质中的多路检测。此外，戈登研究生研究研讨会（GRS）将在GRC之前召开（2010年6月19日至20日）。GRS由研究生和博士后组织和开展，将为初级科学家提供一个机会，以正式的口头形式在同行面前展示他们自己的工作。参加这个更亲密的项目（仅限于35名参与者）将加强对这些初级研究人员的科学培训，并为他们提供联系和潜在的合作者。拟议预算总额的很大一部分将用于支持GRC和GRS的研究生和博士后与会者的会议费用。由于生物分析传感器领域本质上是跨学科的，因此向科学家提供与生物传感技术直接相关或辅助的许多领域的最新研究信息是很重要的。会议计划涉及与生物分析传感相关的许多不同主题-由有前途的研究人员以及具有长期成功创新记录的世界知名科学家发表演讲。讨论领导人是各自领域公认的专家，将负责在会谈之间发起和保持积极、包容各方的讨论。预计将产生新的想法，从而为未来的生物分析传感器平台改进仪器和材料。

0948056BaeumnerThe objective of this conference is to serve as a conduit for discussions of unpublished data in biochemistry, biology, chemistry, engineering, medicine, and physics as they apply to development and application of bioanalytical sensors. This aim will be achieved through active participation of attendees in two poster sessions, informal discussions, and 9 oral sessions, with 30 speakers and 9 discussion leaders. The data discussed here will encompass diverse fields and will address the following themes: 1) molecular recognition using alternatives to standard antibodies and nucleic acid probes, 2) recent advances in optical, electrochemical, and mechanical detection, 3) real-world applications and in vivo sensing, 4) use of nanotechnology to advance understanding of molecular interactions and improvement of sensor design and application, and 5) supporting/enabling technologies. Specific topics will include (but are not limited to) single molecule-based probes, intracellular sensing, biomaterials with enhanced optical or electronic properties, nanoparticles, biocompatibility and the biological/non-biological interface, miniaturization and automation, and multiplexed detection in complex matrices. In addition, the Gordon Graduate Research Seminar (GRS) will convene immediately preceding the GRC (19 - 20 June 2010). Organized and conducted by graduate students and postdocs, the GRS will provide an opportunity for junior scientists to present their own work in a formal, oral format, in front of their peers. Participation in this more intimate program (limited to 35 participants) will enhance the scientific training of these junior investigators and provide them with contacts and potential collaborators. A large proportion of the total proposed budget will go to support GRC and GRS conference fees for graduate and postdoctoral participants.Since the field of Bioanalytical Sensors is by its very nature interdisciplinary, it is important to provide scientists with information on the latest research in many areas directly related to and ancillary to biosensing technologies. The conference program addresses many diverse topics associated with bioanalytical sensing - with presentations by both up-and-coming researchers, as well as world renowned scientists with long track records of successful innovation. The discussion leaders - a hallmark of GRCs - are recognized experts in their fields and will be responsible for initiating and maintaining a vigorous, all-inclusive discussion between the talks.It is anticipated that new ideas will be generated, leading to improved instrumentation and materials for future bioanalytical sensor platforms.
