3rd Int'l Workshop on Polarized Carbon-13 Applications in Metabolic Imaging

描述(申请人提供)：申请资助研究生、研究员和初级教职员工参加第三届超极化碳-13技术及其在代谢成像中的应用国际研讨会的旅费和住宿费。这次会议是一个为期三天的研讨会，定于12月8日至12月10日在宾夕法尼亚大学校园举行。这次研讨会旨在汇集来自不同研究人员小组的各种知识、经验和前景，涵盖的主题包括超极化碳-13技术的最新进展、新的成像分子和代谢技术以及新方法的临床应用。会议由一系列受邀演讲组成，这些人被认为是各自项目领域的领导者。就像我们之前的超极化碳-13和代谢成像研讨会一样，重点将放在代谢的定量评估、癌症分子过程和其他病理生理学的临床方面，以及超极化碳-13在分子过程和代谢实时评估中的应用，以及新成像技术的标准化。 与公共卫生相关：申请资金用于支付研究生、研究员和初级教员参加第三届超极化碳-13技术及其在代谢成像中的应用国际研讨会的旅费和住宿费。这次会议的重点将是代谢的定量评估、癌症分子过程和其他病理生理学的临床方面，以及超极化碳-13在分子过程和新陈代谢实时评估中的应用，以及新成像技术的标准化。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Funding is requested to cover the travel and lodging expenses of graduate students, fellows and junior faculty members to attend the 3nd International Workshop on Hyperpolarized Carbon-13 Technology and its Applications in Metabolic Imaging. This conference is a three-day workshop that is scheduled from December 8 to December 10 and will be held on the campus of the University of Pennsylvania. This workshop is designed to bring together a great variety of knowledge, experience and prospective from a diverse group of investigators which will cover topics ranging from recent advances in hyperpolarized carbon-13 technology, novel imaging molecular and metabolic techniques, and clinical applications of new methods. The meeting consists of a series of invited talks from individuals who are considered to be the leaders in their projective fields. Much like what we had in our previous workshop on hyperpolarized carbon-13 and metabolic imaging, the focus will be on quantitative assessment of metabolism, clinical aspects of molecular processes of cancer and other pathophysiologies, and application of hyperpolarized carbon-13 for real-time assessment of molecular processes and metabolism, and standardization of new imaging techniques.
