THE 1999 OXYGEN SOCIETY MEETING

本次研讨会将由专家为年轻或新的研究人员提供关于炎症研究的概念、方法、解释和各种技术的讲座。然后，会议主体将开始为期四天，上午有四次邀请全体会议演讲，下午有两次平行会议。每天下午的会议将由选定的项目委员会成员和该领域的一名年轻研究员主持。上午的四场特邀全体讲座的主题是：一氧化氮-氧自由基在生物过程和功能中的相互作用，衰老和年龄相关疾病中ros介导的蛋白质修饰，饮食抗氧化剂- DRIs背后的科学，以及促氧化金属及其抗氧化蛋白。下午的讲座将由项目委员会成员从提交的摘要中选择。海报环节将全天展出，并在4:30 - 6:30之间开放讨论。从早上7:30到9:00，“日出自由基学校”将每天举行，由资深科学家为学生、研究员和研究人员组成的观众讲解自由基生物学和化学的基本方面。总的来说，会议将围绕反应性物种在生物学和疾病中扮演的不同角色进行广泛的研究。本次会议的研究成果将对衰老、神经生物学、营养学、心肺、脑血管、肌肉骨骼和肿瘤疾病的理解产生影响，并将有助于深入了解疾病的机制和新的治疗进展。总之，会议提供了一个论坛，以交流自由基生物学和化学的最新基础和应用研究，以及科学家发现新的合作安排的机会。

This workshop will provide lectures by experts to young or new investigators on the concepts, approaches, interpretations and various techniques applied in the inflammation research. The body of the meeting will then begin for four days, with four invited plenary lectures delivered in the morning and two parallel afternoon sessions. Each afternoon session will be chaired by selected members of the Program Committee and a young investigator in the field. The themes of the four invited plenary lectures in the mornings are Nitric Oxide-Oxygen Radical Interactions in Biological Processes and Function, ROS-mediated Protein Modification in Aging and Age-related Diseases, Dietary Anti-oxidants-the Science behind the DRIs, and Pro-oxidant Metals and their Antioxidant Proteins. The lectures delivered in the afternoon sessions will be selected by members of the Program Committee from abstracts submitted at large. Poster sessions will be displayed all-day and will be open for discussion between 4:30 - 6:30. From 7:30 to 9:00 am, The Sunrise Free Radical School will be held each day featuring senior scientists addressing fundamental aspects of free radical biology and chemistry to an audience consisting of students, fellows and investigators. Overall, sessions will address a broad range of research endeavors surrounding the diverse roles that reactive species play in biology and disease. Research presented will have impact on the understanding of aging, neurobiology, nutrition, and cardiopulmonary, cerebrovascular, musculo-skeletal, and neoplastic diseases and will allow insight into mechanisms of disease and novel therapeutic advances. In summary, the conference provides a forum for exchange of recent basic and applied research on free radical biology and chemistry as well as an opportunity for scientists to discover new collaborative arrangements.
