37th International Symposium on Halogenated Persistent Organic Pollutants

项目摘要/摘要 第37届卤代持久性有机污染物(POPs)国际研讨会二恶英2015将于 会议于2017年8月20日至25日在加拿大温哥华喜来登酒店举行。过去的35年 多年来，用于检测的分析和生物分析技术取得了快速进步 确定和量化持久性有机污染物，增进对其形成、去向和传输的了解， 识别和表征新的持久性有机污染物类别，以及在理解其 生化和毒理学的作用机制和对健康的不利影响。这些见解，再加上 持久性有机污染物的全球分布以及生物和环境持久性使其成为一个重大问题。 科学家和监管机构的兴趣和担忧增加，一些国家面临的一个重大挑战是 减少/尽量减少它们在环境、动物和食物中的存在。这些化学物质的研究现状 现在涵盖了广泛的科学学科，从分析和环境化学到 分子生物学、毒理学和流行病学。这次研讨会的广泛和长期目标是为 将世界上这些不同科学领域的持久性有机污染物研究专家聚集在一起，为他们提供 独特的多学科论坛，可在其中交流和讨论最新成果和新出现的问题，并 发展跨学科协作和翻译方法来解决全球民意调查的问题 污染。本次会议将为预期的800-1000名与会者提供这样的机会 四天半的会议，40多个口头陈述会议和3个开放海报会议 涵盖了不同的主题。每一天都将以一位国际知名学者的全会演讲开始 持久性有机污染物专家，随后在四个同时举行的会议上就各种持久性有机污染物领域进行口头陈述。这个 下午的会议从所有参与者参加的开放海报会议开始，然后是两个连续的会议 四个同时进行的口头陈述课程。最后一天将以总体总结结束 会议描述了会议期间报告的重大进展，并讨论了持久性有机污染物的未来挑战 研究。国家和国际组织委员会将确保将有重要的 学生、博士后和年轻研究人员的参与，妇女介绍的人数均等， 少数群体和残疾人，以及来自以下国家的研究人员发言数量的平衡 世界不同的地区。二恶英研讨会为跨学科提供了一个独特的机会 来自不同科学背景和学科的参与者之间的交流和互动，但 他们对流行音乐有着共同的兴趣。这些互动和协作预计将继续 对这些无处不在的网络的形成、命运和分布产生了重大进展和新的见解 污染物及其对环境和健康的影响。

PROJECT SUMMARY/ABSTRACT The 37th International Symposium on Halogenated Persistent Organic Pollutants (POPs), Dioxin 2015, will be held from 20th to 25th August 2017, at the Sheraton Wall Centre Hotel, in Vancouver, Canada. The past 35 years have witnessed rapid advances in analytical and bioanalytical technologies for the detection identification, and quantitation of POPs, increased understanding of their formation, fate and transport, identification and characterization of new classes of POPs, and major progress in understanding their biochemical and toxicological mechanisms of action and adverse health effects. These insights, coupled with global distribution and the biological and environmental persistence of POPs, have made them a major issue of increased interest and concern of scientists and regulators, and a major challenge for some countries to reduce/minimize their presence in the environment, animals and food. Current research on these chemicals now encompasses a broad range of scientific disciplines, from analytical and environmental chemistry to molecular biology, toxicology and epidemiology. 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 global POP contamination. This meeting will provide such an opportunity for the 800-1000 participants expected for this four and a half day conference of more than 40 oral presentation sessions and three open poster sessions covering a diverse range of topics. Each day will commence with a plenary lecture by a leading international POPs expert followed by oral presentations in four concurrent sessions on a variety of POPs areas. The afternoon sessions begin with an open poster session attended by all participants, and then 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 various regions of the world. The Dioxin symposium provides a unique opportunity for interdisciplinary communications and interactions among participants from diverse scientific backgrounds and disciplines but who have a common interest in POPs. These interactions and collaborations are expected to continue to result in major advancements and new insights into the formation, fate and distribution of these ubiquitous contaminants, their environmental impact and health effects.
