DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The 25th Symposium of The Protein Society will be held July 23-27, 2011 at the Boston Marriott Copley Place in Boston, Massachusetts./ organized by C. James McKnight (Boston University School of Medicine). The meeting theme is "25 Years of The Protein Society: Where we've been, where we are, and where we're going with protein science." The role of young investigators will be a very important component of the program since they are key to the future of protein science. Two Plenary Sessions will feature "Macromolecular Machines" and a memorial session honoring both Walter Kauzmann and Charles Tanford. The 2011 Society Awards will be presented in two Awards Plenary Sessions, and awardees will present plenary lectures. A new session "Protein Structure Initiative: What We Do and How We Can Help You" will be chaired by Dr. Ward Smith, head of NIH's Protein Structure Initiative (PSI), to promote collaboration between protein scientists and the PSI centers and introduce the new phase of the NIH PSI, PSI Biology, to symposium researchers. Another new session "Engineered Protein Network Interactomes" will focus on synthetic gene networks that have the capability of creating new paradigms for protein regulation and the production of novel compounds and drugs. Our goal is to appeal to an expanded audience of researchers in biomedical fields where proteins play an important role, ranging from basic biochemistry and biophysics to cell biology to human therapeutics. Many of our symposia cover topics with direct relevance to broad areas of human health and disease: neurodegenerative disorders, cancer, infectious diseases, and heart disease-in scientific sessions focusing on Proteins in Disease, Disordered Proteins, Protein Folding, Protein Homeostasis and Degradation, Proteins in the Cellular Milieu, Lipoproteins and Membrane Proteins, Proteins in Metabolism and Biosynthesis, Engineered Protein Network Interactomes, and Macromolecular Machines. The scientific program will include 16 scientific sessions, 14 plenary talks, more than 60 invited speakers and 30 promoted poster talks. Of about 700 abstract submissions, poster sessions include a total of about 400 posters. Promoted poster talks represent late-breaking developments and provide speaking opportunities for undergraduate and graduate students and postdoctoral fellows. In addition, the program is highly diverse with women and other underrepresented groups comprising approximately one third of the invited speakers. PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE: Our goal is to appeal to an expanded audience of researchers in biomedical fields where proteins play an important role, ranging from basic biochemistry and biophysics to cell biology to human therapeutics. Many of our symposia cover topics with direct relevance to broad areas of human health and disease: neurodegenerative disorders, cancer, infectious diseases, and heart disease-in scientific sessions focusing on Proteins in Disease, Disordered Proteins, Protein Folding, Protein Homeostasis and Degradation, Proteins in the Cellular Milieu, Lipoproteins and Membrane Proteins, Proteins in Metabolism and Biosynthesis, Engineered Protein Network Interactomes, and Macromolecular Machines.

描述（由申请人提供）：蛋白质协会第25届研讨会将于2011年7月23日至27日在马萨诸塞州波士顿的波士顿万豪科普利广场举行。由C. James McKnight（波士顿大学医学院）。会议的主题是“蛋白质社会的25年：我们已经在哪里，我们在哪里，以及我们在蛋白质科学方面的发展方向。“年轻研究人员的作用将是该计划的一个非常重要的组成部分，因为他们是蛋白质科学未来的关键。两次全体会议将以“高分子机器”和纪念沃尔特·考茨曼和查尔斯·坦福德的纪念会议为特色。2011年社会奖将在两个奖项全体会议，获奖者将提出全体讲座。一个新的会议“蛋白质结构倡议：我们做什么，我们如何帮助你”将由美国国立卫生研究院的蛋白质结构倡议（PSI）负责人沃德·史密斯博士主持，以促进蛋白质科学家和PSI中心之间的合作，并向研讨会研究人员介绍NIH PSI的新阶段，PSI生物学。另一个新的会议“工程蛋白质网络相互作用组”将集中在合成基因网络，有能力创造新的范式蛋白质调控和生产新的化合物和药物。我们的目标是吸引更多的生物医学领域的研究人员，其中蛋白质发挥着重要作用，从基础生物化学和生物物理学到细胞生物学再到人类治疗学。我们的许多研讨会涵盖与人类健康和疾病的广泛领域直接相关的主题：神经退行性疾病，癌症，传染病和心脏病-在科学会议上集中在疾病中的蛋白质，蛋白质折叠，蛋白质稳态和降解，细胞环境中的蛋白质，脂蛋白和膜蛋白，代谢和生物合成中的蛋白质，工程蛋白质网络相互作用组，和高分子机器。科学计划将包括16个科学会议，14个全体会议，60多个特邀演讲者和30个推广海报演讲。在约700份摘要中，海报会议共包括约400张海报。推广海报会谈代表了最新的发展，并为本科生和研究生以及博士后研究员提供演讲机会。此外，该方案高度多样化，妇女和其他代表性不足的群体约占受邀发言人的三分之一。 公共卫生关系：我们的目标是吸引更多的生物医学领域的研究人员，其中蛋白质发挥着重要作用，从基础生物化学和生物物理学到细胞生物学再到人类治疗学。我们的许多研讨会涵盖与人类健康和疾病的广泛领域直接相关的主题：神经退行性疾病，癌症，传染病和心脏病-在科学会议上集中在疾病中的蛋白质，蛋白质折叠，蛋白质稳态和降解，细胞环境中的蛋白质，脂蛋白和膜蛋白，代谢和生物合成中的蛋白质，工程蛋白质网络相互作用组，和高分子机器。
