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

描述（由申请人提供）：资金要求支付研究生，研究员和初级教师的旅费和住宿费，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。本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，将在宾夕法尼亚大学校园内举行。该研讨会旨在汇集来自不同研究人员的各种知识，经验和前景，涵盖超极化碳-13技术的最新进展，新型成像分子和代谢技术以及新方法的临床应用等主题。会议由一系列被认为是其投影领域领导者的个人受邀演讲组成。就像我们在超极化碳-13和代谢成像上的前一个研讨会一样，重点将是代谢的定量评估，癌症和其他病理生理学分子过程的临床方面，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。 公共卫生相关性：要求提供资金，以支付研究生、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。 本次会议的重点将是代谢的定量评估，癌症和其他病理生理学的分子过程的临床方面，以及超极化碳-13用于分子过程和代谢的实时评估，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.
