2009 World Molecular Imaging Congress

描述(申请人提供)：2009年9月23-26日，世界分子成像大会SM(WMIC)将欢迎来自分子成像领域各学科的专业人士来到加拿大蒙特利尔。这次独特的会议由分子成像学会(SMI)、分子成像学会(AMI)、欧洲分子成像学会和亚洲分子成像学会联合会组织。 现已进入第二个年头，WMIC的设计主题及时，将吸引来自学术机构、医院、政府、独立医疗团体、制药公司、设备制造商和其他服务提供商的医生、科学家和学生从基础科学和临床实践的角度分享分子成像所有领域的最新研究和进展。 特邀演讲者将包括分子成像领域的顶级思想领袖，为与会者提供向他们选择的领域的这些专家学习并亲自会面的机会。此外，与会者将有机会介绍和审查摘要和海报，展示尖端技术和发现，以推动分子成像的实践。 公共卫生相关性：组织者坚信通过这一过程为培养未来的科学领袖提供教育基础和机会。大会提供了一个重要的论坛，通过它提供科学和技术信息交流。由于方法的转移和科学技术信息的交流，我们的理解的提高以及我们的知识范围的扩大是这类机会所独有的。WMIC将为放射学/核医学、药理学和分子生物学的研究生、博士后研究员和住院医生/临床研究员提供一个特殊的教育机会，这将使所有参与者受益，同时加强分子成像在科学和医疗实践中的实践。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): On September 23-26, 2009, the World Molecular Imaging Congress SM (WMIC) will welcome professionals from every discipline of the field of Molecular Imaging to Montreal, Canada. This unique meeting is being organized by the Society for Molecular Imaging (SMI), the Academy of Molecular Imaging (AMI), the European Society of Molecular Imaging and the Federation of Asian Societies of Molecular Imaging. Now in its second year, the WMIC is designed with timely topics that will engage physicians, scientists and students from academic institutions, hospitals, government, independent medical groups, pharmaceutical companies, device manufacturers and other service providers to share the latest research and advances in all areas of molecular imaging from the perspective of basic science as well as clinical practice. Invited speakers will include top thought leaders in molecular imaging, offering attendees the opportunity to learn from, and to meet personally with, these experts in their chosen field. Moreover, attendees will have the opportunity to present and review abstracts and posters demonstrating cutting edge techniques and findings to advance the practice of molecular imaging. Public Health Relevance: The organizers strongly believe in providing the educational foundation and opportunity for nurturing the scientific leaders of the future through this process. The Congress provides an important forum by which to offer scientific and technical information exchanges. The advancement of our understanding as well as the broadening of our body of knowledge that occurs as a result of a transfer of methodologies, and exchange of scientific and technical information, is unique to this type of opportunity. The WMIC will provide an exceptional, educational opportunity for graduate students, postdoctoral fellows, and residents/clinical fellows in Radiology/Nuclear Medicine, Pharmacology and Molecular Biology alike that will benefit all who attend, while strengthening the practice of Molecular Imaging for science and medical practice.
