International Conference on Biopartitioning and Purification (BPP 2013), Newport, RI, October 6-10, 2013

1256304 Lenhoff该奖项将为年轻的研究人员提供部分旅行支持，以参加第17届两年一度的生物分配和纯化国际会议（BPP 2013），该会议将于2013年10月6日至10日在纽波特举行。奖励资金将主要用于资助美国学生参加会议的差旅费和注册费;类似的补贴也可能提供给参加会议的美国初级教师。 会议的科学范围将包括以下领域：相形成的热力学和生物的分配，生物制品和介质之间相互作用的分子方面，多模式色谱过程，高滴度过程，亲和力增强的生物分离，纯化单元操作建模和优化，合理/高通量生物过程设计，颗粒/病毒样颗粒纯化，DNA/RNA纯化，和新兴的生物分离技术。 我们的目标是尽可能包容地定义主题领域，以吸引各种相关提交，选择最高质量的内容纳入计划，然后将口头演讲组织成有凝聚力的主题会议。 将邀请来自工业界和学术界的国际知名领导人进行多场特邀主题演讲。 有关会议的信息将主要通过会议网站提供，该网站是仿照2011年业务伙伴关系规划所使用的网站（www.bpp2011.org）。 组织者将寻求在会议上发表的研究在一个领先的杂志的专门问题。 BPP 2013为学生提供了一个绝佳的机会，使他们能够在不限于单个单元操作的综合环境中更广泛地获得生物分离和生物加工的独特视角。

1256304 LenhoffThis award will provide partial travel support for young researchers to attend the 17th biannual International Conference on Biopartitioning and Purification (BPP 2013), which will be held in Newport, RI, October 6-10, 2013. Award funds will be used primarily to subsidize the travel and registration fees for US students to attend the conference; similar subsidies may also be made available to US junior faculty attending the conference. The scientific scope of the conference will include areas such as thermodynamics of phase formation and the partitioning of biological, molecular aspects of interactions between biologicals and media, multi-mode chromatographic processes, high titer processes, affinity-enhanced bioseparations, purification unit operation modeling and optimization, rational/high-throughput bioprocess design, particle/virus-like particle purification, DNA/RNA purification, and emerging bioseparation technologies. The goal is to define the topical areas as inclusively as possible so as to attract a wide variety of relevant submissions, select those of highest quality for inclusion in the program, and then to organize the oral presentations into cohesive topical sessions. A number of invited keynote lectures by internationally recognized leaders from both industry and academia will be invited. Information on the conference will be made available primarily via the conference website, which is being modeled on that used for BPP 2011 (www.bpp2011.org). The organizers will seek publication of research presented at the conference in a dedicated issue of a leading journal. BPP 2013 represents an outstanding opportunity for students to obtain a distinctive perspective over bioseparations and bioprocessing more generally in an integrated context that is not limited to an individual unit operation.
