abstract: The spread of infectious diseases remains a serious medical burden around the world, causing an estimated 15 million deaths each year. The emergence or re-emergence of viruses such as SARS, avian influenza, HIV-AIDS, Lyme disease, West Nile virus, and the evolution of previously known strains which develop resistance to specific drugs represent few examples of the serious problems that public health and medical science research need to address. Next to the tremendous advances in modern medicine and health sciences, epidemic models aided by computer simulations and information technologies represent an increasingly important tool for the understanding of transmission dynamics, and the analysis of epidemic patterns. Thanks to the increased computational power and innovative use of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT), sophisticated modeling approaches informed by realistic and detailed data sets are now feasible and aim at predicting a variety of possible scenarios, evaluating treatment and control strategies, helping and supporting the decision process at the scientific, medical and public health level.

The aim of the Workshop is to bring together experts in the field of infectious disease modeling to compare, evaluate and assess the recent advances reached with the use of sophisticate modeling, computational approaches, and ICT applications, highlighting the results they can provide and the different questions they can address, and bridging with the actual implications from a public health perspective.

abstract: The TriMark Stem Cell Conference 2008 has been organized to provide a critical examination of the stem cell industry, as well as insight from key industry leaders concerning cutting edge stem cell technology, structuring mutually beneficial deals and the stem cell industry’s impact on the field of regenerative medicine and drug discovery. This conference will also provide an integral forum for leaders in stem cell research centers and laboratories to share ideas, network with other delegates and advance understanding of the potential of stem cell technology.

abstract: Infection as a major cause of cancer incidence and death Despite a considerable proportion of medical research devoted to understanding cancer and its causes, the role of chronic infections in carcinogenesis is frequently overlooked. According to WHO, up to 23 percent of malignancies in developing countries are caused by infectious agents. In developed countries, cancers caused by chronic infections amount to approximately 8 percent of all malignancies.

An infective agent is linked to some of the most common cancers. Helicobacter pylori causes gastric cancer, the second most important cause of cancer death worldwide. Papillomavirus causes the vast majority of cervical cancer, the second most important cause of cancer among women. Liver cancer, caused by hepatitis viruses, ranks sixth in worldwide cancer incidence. Nasopharyngeal cancer, an Epstein-Barr virus associated cancer, is the most common head and neck cancer in Southern China.
