HUPO 2nd Annual World Congress Montreal 2003

描述：(申请人提供)人类蛋白质组组织(HuPO)是一个非营利性组织，创建的使命是：1)将国家和地区的蛋白质组组织合并为一个世界性的组织；2)从事科学和教育活动，以鼓励蛋白质组技术的传播，并传播与人类蛋白质组和模式生物有关的知识；3)协助协调公共蛋白质组倡议。HuPo世界大会是HuPo组织的主要年度活动，旨在推动其使命，主要目标是为任何使用或有兴趣使用蛋白质组学方法的研究人员提供令人兴奋和适用的信息。上一次也是第一次会议在法国凡尔赛举行，吸引了1000多人参加。今年，大会将在北京举行。 我们将于10月8日至11日在加拿大蒙特利尔举行会议，我们预计来自全球的约3000名基础和临床研究人员将在从环境研究到农业再到人类和动物健康的广泛领域交流信息。 科学计划委员会致力于创建一次会议，邀请研讨会演讲、教育研讨会以及关于蛋白质组学最新进展和目前使用蛋白质组学方法的领域的自愿口头和海报演示。这将促进使用最新蛋白质组学方法的经验丰富的研究人员与那些刚刚开始寻找蛋白质组学作为开展研究活动的手段的人之间的讨论和会议。该计划不仅涵盖与蛋白质组学直接相关的基础科学，包括细胞生物学、遗传学、蛋白质化学、质谱学和生物信息学，还包括蛋白质组学技术和技术在人类和动物疾病、植物和其他多细胞和单细胞生物中的应用。科学计划的一个重要元素将是海报会议，其中概述了许多领域中最具创新性的研究，这些领域目前正在使用或可能使用蛋白质组学方法来回答我们这个时代一些非常明显和重要的问题。

DESCRIPTION: (provided by applicant) The Human Proteome Organization (HUPO) is a not for profit organization that was created with the mission of: 1) Consolidating national and regional proteome organizations into a worldwide organization; 2) Engaging in scientific and educational activities to encourage the spread of proteomics technologies and to disseminate knowledge pertaining to the human proteome and that of model organisms and 3) Assisting in the coordination of public proteome initiatives. The HUPO World Congress is the major annual event organized by HUPO to drive its mission with the major goal of offering exciting and applicable information for any researcher using or interested in using a proteomics approach. The previous and inaugural meeting was held in Versailles, France and attracted in excess of 1000 participants. This year, the congress will be held in Montreal, Canada from October 8th to 11th and we expect approximately 3000 basic and clinical researchers from around the globe to exchange information on a broad range of fields from environmental research to agriculture to human and animal health. The Scientific Program Committee is dedicated to creating a meeting of invited symposia talks, educational workshops as well as volunteered oral and poster presentations on the most up to date advances in proteomics and fields that are now using proteomics approaches. This will foster discussions and sessions between highly experienced researchers using the latest proteomics approaches and those who are just beginning to seek out proteomics as a means to perform their research activities. The program not only covers the basic science directly related to proteomics including cell biology, genetics, protein chemistry, mass spectrometry and bioinformatics but also the application of proteomics techniques and technologies to human and animal diseases, plants and other multi and unicellular organisms. An important element of the scientific program will be the poster sessions outlining the most innovative research in the many fields that currently use or could potentially use proteomics methodologies to answer some highly visible and important questions of our time.
