DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The 2014 FASEB Conference on Trace Elements in Biology and Medicine will take place in Steamboat Springs, Colorado from June 1-6, 2014. This conference is designed to bring together a diverse group of scientists and physicians to share and discuss the latest, cutting-edge research findings in the field of trace element biology. Essential micronutrients such as iron (Fe), copper (Cu), zinc (Zn), manganese (Mn) and selenium (Se) play critical roles in nutrition and health as illustrated by the wide range of diseases and disorders associated with defects in trace element metabolism. This meeting will be the 13th iteration of this long-standing conference series and will span a range of scientific interests from developmental biology, genetics, and biochemistry, to chemistry, nutrition, and clinical medicine. Session topics at the 2014 meeting will cover trace element uptake, trafficking, and regulation in microorganisms, higher eukaryotes, and plants, and the role of trace elements in genetic diseases, immunity, and nutrition. In addition, novel techniques to monitor trace elements in cells will be discussed. A notable strength of this conference series has been its ability to unite research scientists focused on the molecular details of trace element metabolism with scientists/medical doctors studying the direct impact of trace elements on human health, nutrition, and disease, thus bridging the gap between basic and applied science. The FASEB conference has been highly successful in integrating molecular, nutritional, and biomedical research and fostering fruitful collaborations across a broad range of disciplines. The meeting aims to draw together established investigators and trainees to promote communication, mentoring, and collaborations and share advances in methodologies. The ultimate goal of this conference series is foster the ongoing development of new therapeutic treatments for microbial infections and diseases/disorders related to trace element metabolism.

描述（由申请人提供）：2014年FASEB生物学和医学微量元素会议将于2014年6月1日至6日在科罗拉多的汽船泉举行。本次会议旨在汇集不同的科学家和医生群体，分享和讨论微量元素生物学领域的最新前沿研究成果。必需微量营养素如铁（Fe）、铜（Cu）、锌（Zn）、锰（Mn）和硒（Se）在营养和健康中起关键作用，如与微量元素代谢缺陷相关的广泛疾病和病症所示。这次会议将是这个长期会议系列的第13次迭代，将涵盖从发育生物学，遗传学和生物化学到化学，营养学和临床医学的一系列科学兴趣。2014年会议的主题将包括微量元素摄入、贩运、 微生物、高等真核生物和植物中的微量元素及其调控，以及微量元素在遗传疾病、免疫和营养中的作用。此外，将讨论监测细胞中微量元素的新技术。该系列会议的一个显著优势是能够将专注于微量元素代谢分子细节的研究科学家与研究微量元素对人类健康，营养和疾病的直接影响的科学家/医生联合起来，从而弥合基础科学和应用科学之间的差距。FASEB会议在整合分子，营养和生物医学研究方面取得了非常成功，并在广泛的学科中促进了富有成效的合作。该会议旨在将知名调查人员和受训人员聚集在一起，以促进沟通、指导和合作，并分享方法学方面的进展。该系列会议的最终目标是促进微生物感染和与微量元素代谢相关的疾病/病症的新治疗方法的持续发展。
