DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The Gordon Research Conference (GRC) on the Cell Biology of Metals is designed to provide scientists from a wide range of disciplines with the latest research findings on the mechanisms of metal uptake, trafficking, utilization, and homeostasis and the relationship of those processes to human disease. This research conference has been held every two years since 2005 and has become the cornerstone meeting in the metals in biology field. The meeting is one of over 150 research conferences that will be organized in 2013 by the GRC, an organization that is internationally known for the high-quality, cutting edge nature of its meetings. Although a comparatively new conference, attendance at the Cell Biology of Metals meeting has been consistently high since its inception. The 2013 Cell Biology of Metals GRC will be held on July 28-August 2 at the Salve Regina University in Newport, RI. The program for the meeting that is described in this application has been assembled around the theme of "emerging research in the areas of metal biology and disease". Metal ions play key roles in cellular biochemistry and contribute to the etiology of many diseases including neurodegenerative disorders such as Parkinson's and Alzheimer's disease, hemochromatosis, Menkes and Wilson diseases, diabetes, and microbial infections. Sessions topics include metalloproteomics and metallogenomics, metals and microbial pathogenesis, intracellular metal trafficking and utilization, metallosensors and homeostasis, metals in physiology and disease, and metal cofactor assembly. The keynote lectures, research talks, poster sessions, and informal scientific discussions among the conference participants will contribute to advancing our understanding of the mechanisms of metal metabolism and their relationships to human disease and will set the stage for novel therapeutic treatments of infections and metal-related disorders.

描述（由申请人提供）：关于金属细胞生物学的戈登研究会议（GRC）旨在为来自广泛学科的科学家提供关于金属吸收，运输，利用和稳态机制的最新研究结果以及这些过程与人类疾病的关系。该研究会议自2005年以来每两年举行一次，已成为生物领域金属的基石会议。该会议是GRC将于2013年组织的150多个研究会议之一，该组织以其会议的高质量和前沿性而闻名。虽然是一个相对较新的会议，但自成立以来，金属细胞生物学会议的出席率一直很高。2013年金属细胞生物学研讨会将于7月28日至8月2日在罗德岛州纽波特的Salve Regina大学举行。本申请中描述的会议计划已围绕“金属生物学和疾病领域的新兴研究”的主题进行了组装。金属离子在细胞生物化学中起关键作用，并导致许多疾病的病因，包括神经退行性疾病，如帕金森病和阿尔茨海默病、血色病、门克斯和威尔逊病、糖尿病和微生物感染。会议主题包括金属蛋白质组学和金属基因组学，金属和微生物发病机制，细胞内金属运输和利用，金属传感器和稳态，生理和疾病中的金属，以及金属辅因子组装。会议参与者之间的主题演讲，研究讲座，海报会议和非正式科学讨论将有助于促进我们对金属代谢机制及其与人类疾病关系的理解，并将为感染和金属相关疾病的新型治疗方法奠定基础。
