DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant) The 34th International Symposium on Halogenated POPs (Dioxin 2014) will be held from 31st August to 5th September 2014, at the Hotel Melia Castilla in Madrid, Spain. The past 3 decades have witnessed rapid advances in analytical technologies for the identification, detection and quantitation of these xenobiotics, increased knowledge about their formation, fate and environmental transport, identification and characterization of new classes of POPs, and significant progress in understanding their biochemical and toxicological mechanisms of action and impacts on human and animal health. As a result, scientific, governmental and public interest in and concern about these chemicals has continued to increase. Current research on these chemicals now encompasses a broad range of scientific disciplines, from analytical and environmental chemistry to molecular biology, toxicology and human health. The broad and long term goals of this symposium are to bring together the world's experts in these diverse scientific areas of POPs research and to provide them with a unique multidisciplinary forum in which to communicate and discuss recent results and emerging issues, and to develop interdisciplinary collaborations and translational approaches to addressing the problems of POPs contamination. This meeting will provide such an opportunity for around 1000 participants expected for this four and a half day conference of over 40 oral presentation sessions and three open poster sessions covering a diverse range of topics. Each day will start with a plenary lecture by a leading POPs expert followed by oral presentations in five concurrent sessions on a variety of POPs areas, while the afternoon begins with a poster session attended by all participants, followed by two sequential blocks of four concurrent oral presentation sessions. The final day will conclude with an overall summary session describing significant advances reported during the meeting and discussing future challenges in POPs research. The national and international organizing committees will ensure that there will be significant participation by students, postdocs and young investigators, parity in the numbers presentations by women, minorities and persons with disabilities, and balance in the number of presentations by researchers from a various regions of the world. The significance of the Dioxin symposium is that it provides a very unique opportunity for interdisciplinary communications and interactions among scientists with diverse scientific backgrounds and disciplines yet who have a common interest in POPs and these interactions and collaborations have led to major advancements in understanding of the formation, fate and transport of these ubiquitous contaminants, their environmental impact and adverse health effects.

描述(由申请人提供) 第34届卤代持久性有机污染物(二恶英)国际专题讨论会将于2014年8月31日至9月5日在西班牙马德里的Melia Castilla酒店举行。在过去的30年里，在识别、检测和量化这些外来物质的分析技术方面取得了快速进展，对它们的形成、去向和环境迁移的了解增加了，识别和表征了新的持久性有机污染物类别，在了解它们的生化和毒理作用机制以及对人类和动物健康的影响方面取得了重大进展。因此，科学、政府和公众对这些化学品的兴趣和关注持续增加。目前对这些化学品的研究现在涵盖了从分析和环境化学到分子生物学、毒理学和人类健康的广泛科学学科。这次研讨会的广泛和长期目标是将世界上这些持久性有机污染物研究的不同科学领域的专家聚集在一起，为他们提供一个独特的多学科论坛，在这个论坛上交流和讨论最近的成果和新出现的问题，并开发跨学科合作和翻译方法来解决持久性有机污染物污染问题。这次会议将为大约1000名与会者提供这样的机会，预计将参加为期四天半的会议，包括40多个口头陈述会议和三个涉及各种主题的公开海报会议。每天将从一位主要持久性有机污染物专家的全体演讲开始，然后是关于各种持久性有机污染物领域的五个并行会议的口头陈述，而下午以所有与会者参加的海报会议开始，然后是四个并行口头陈述会议的两个连续块。最后一天将以总体总结会议结束，介绍会议期间报告的重大进展，并讨论持久性有机污染物研究的未来挑战。国家和国际组委会将确保学生、博士后和青年研究人员大量参与，妇女、少数群体和残疾人的发言人数均等，以及来自世界不同区域的研究人员发言人数平衡。二恶英研讨会的意义在于，它为具有不同科学背景和学科但对持久性有机污染物有共同兴趣的科学家之间的跨学科交流和互动提供了一个非常独特的机会，这些互动和合作导致在理解这些无处不在的污染物的形成、去向和迁移、其环境影响和对健康的不利影响方面取得了重大进展。
