ABSTRACT “The 9th Conference on Metal Toxicity and Carcinogenesis” will be held at Hilton Lexington Downtown, Lexington, Kentucky, October 23-26, 2016. We propose to continue this biennial conference series, which, since its inception 16 years ago, has become the premier international conference in the field of metal toxicity and carcinogenesis. This meeting will be sponsored by the University of Kentucky, the UK College of Medicine, and the UK Markey Cancer Center. This interdisciplinary scientific conference is a workshop that brings together a community of scientists from across the United States and overseas that focuses its research on metal toxicity and carcinogenicity. The objectives of the meeting are 1) to coordinate, exchange, and disseminate information and 2) to explore metal-induced toxicity and carcinogenicity. The focuses will be mechanisms of metal-induced toxicity, strategies for intervention and prevention, and possible translation from basic studies into clinical or public policy. The conference content will challenge and seek to shift current research paradigms, or employ novel approaches or methods to fulfill its purpose. To achieve these goals, the conference will cover concepts, approaches or methodologies, instrumentation, or interventions novel to the field of metal toxicity and carcinogenicity as well as in a broad sense. The conference will also address a refinement, improvement, or new application of theoretical concepts, approaches or methodologies, instrumentation, or interventions. The Conference will stimulate interactions of scientists and collaboration and help move the field forward.

抽象的 “第九届金属毒性和致癌会议”将在列克星敦市中心希尔顿酒店举行 肯塔基州列克星敦，2016 年 10 月 23 日至 26 日。我们建议继续举办这一两年一次的系列会议，其中， 自16年前创办以来，已成为金属毒性领域首屈一指的国际会议 和致癌作用。本次会议将由肯塔基大学、英国医学院、 和英国马基癌症中心。这次跨学科科学会议是一个研讨会，带来了 来自美国和海外的科学家团体聚集在一起，其研究重点是 金属毒性和致癌性。会议的目的是：1）协调、交流和 传播信息；2) 探索金属引起的毒性和致癌性。重点将是 金属引起的毒性机制、干预和预防策略以及可能的转化 临床或公共政策的基础研究。会议内容将挑战并寻求改变当前 研究范式，或采用新颖的方法或方法来实现其目的。为了实现这些目标， 会议将涵盖新颖的概念、途径或方法、工具或干预措施 金属毒性和致癌性以及广义上的致癌性领域。会议还将讨论 理论概念、方法或方法的细化、改进或新应用， 仪器或干预措施。会议将促进科学家之间的互动和合作 帮助推动该领域向前发展。
