DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The 9th International Workshop on "Radiation Damage to DNA" will cover recent advances in understanding the consequences of radiation energy deposition in DNA. From a mechanistic point of view, physical, chemical and biochemical changes in DNA will be linked to biological consequences and impact on human health. This workshop is the ninth in a series of workshops where physicists, chemists and biologists meet to discuss and present their most recent findings on radiation damage to DNA in a highly interactive and multidisciplinary forum. This workshop will be held May 14-17, 2006 at the Corinthia Club Hotel Tekirova, Antalya, Turkey. The number of the participants is limited to 120, who will include graduate students, post-doctoral fellows, and mid-career and senior scientists from academic, government and research institutions. The topics of the workshop include radiation-induced and endogenous DNA damage (DNA damage by direct or indirect ionizing radiation, base damage and complex lesions at low and high doses, by low and high LET radiations, clustered DNA damage), physics and chemistry of radiation-induced DNA radicals, cellular repair of radiation-induced DNA damage (repair of base lesions and strand breaks), biological consequences of radiation-induced DNA damage, track structure, charge and energy transfer, microdosimetry, role of chromatin structure in DNA damage induction and repair, computational systems biology in understanding DNA damage and repair, and advances in measurement of DNA damage and repair. An important goal of the meeting will be stimulating interdisciplinary thinking, and synergistic and challenging interactions among the participants, contributing to dissemination of scientific knowledge and to formation of international scientific collaborations in the various research areas.

描述（由申请人提供）：关于“ DNA辐射损害”的第9个国际研讨会将涵盖了解DNA中辐射能量沉积的后果的最新进展。 从机械的角度来看，DNA的物理，化学和生化变化将与生物学后果和对人类健康的影响有关。 该研讨会是一系列研讨会中的第九个研讨会，物理学家，化学家和生物学家开会，讨论并介绍了他们在高度互动和多学科论坛中对DNA的辐射损害的最新发现。 该研讨会将于2006年5月14日至17日在土耳其安塔利亚的科林西亚俱乐部俱乐部酒店举行。 参与者的人数限制为120，他们将包括研究生，博士后研究员以及学术，政府和研究机构的职业生涯和高级科学家。 研讨会的主题包括辐射引起的和内源性DNA损伤（直接或间接电离辐射受到DNA损伤，低剂量和高剂量时的基本损伤和复杂的病变，通过低和高剂量，让辐射，聚类的DNA损伤，物理和化学，辐射诱导的DNA自由度损害的物理和化学，以及辐射构成的DNA损坏，以及REDIAL降低了DNA损害的差异，并修复了DNA损坏的范围）（均可修复的DNA）。辐射引起的DNA损伤，轨道结构，电荷和能量传递，微测定法，染色质结构在DNA损伤诱导和修复中的作用，计算系统生物学在理解DNA损伤和修复方面的生物学以及测量DNA损伤和修复的进步。 会议的一个重要目标是刺激跨学科思维，以及参与者之间的协同和挑战性的互动，有助于传播科学知识并在各个研究领域形成国际科学合作。
