Meeting: Symposium on Comparative Proteomics of Environmental and Pollution Stress Jan 3-7, 2012 Charleston South Carolina.

环境和污染压力的比较蛋白质组学研讨会是第一次讨论生物体蛋白质水平的全球变化，以应对环境压力。 研究蛋白质丰度的全球模式，也称为蛋白质组学，可以深入了解细胞对环境压力条件的功能反应。 研讨会将介绍目前正在对非模式生物或海洋模式生物进行的一些蛋白质组学分析，并将汇集一系列参与者，从学生和博士后到高级研究人员，介绍最新的研究成果，讨论影响，并交流方法和实验方法。 研讨会的参与者将提交他们的演讲作为手稿的综合和比较生物学出版，这将有助于分发的研究成果给广大观众，从而促进有兴趣追求蛋白质组学分析，以解决环境和污染压力生物学问题的研究社区的增长。

The symposium on Comparative Proteomics of Environmental and Pollution Stress is the first of its kind to address global changes at the protein level in organisms, in response to environmental stressors. Investigating global patterns of protein abundance, also called proteomics, provides insights into the functional responses of cells to environmentally stressful conditions. The symposium will feature the few proteomic analyses currently being done on non-model or marine model organisms, and will bring together a range of participants, from students and post-docs to senior researchers, to present the latest research results, discuss implications, and exchange methodological and experimental approaches. Symposium participants will submit their presentations as manuscripts to Integrative and Comparative Biology for publication, which will help to distribute the research results to a wide audience and thus facilitate the growth of a research community interested in pursuing proteomic analyses to address problems in environmental and pollution stress biology.
