| 14.Bioanalytical Sensors |
| Dates | 17 Jun 2012 → 22 Jun 2012 | [ID=454952] |
| Location | Newport, RI, United States |
| Organizer | Gordon Research Conferences |
| Abstract | The 2012 GRC on Bioanalytical Sensors (June 17-22, Salve Regina) will present cutting-edge research in a highly multidisciplinary atmosphere by leaders in the field. This GRC will serve as a conduit for collegial discussions of unpublished data in biochemistry, biology, chemistry, engineering, medicine, and physics as they apply to the development and applications of bioanalytical sensors. This meeting will bring together a diverse group of participants ranging from technologists, who are at the forefront of developing novel sensing platforms, to engineers with cutting-edge integration concepts, to biologists/clinicians with highly impactful application areas that demand new sensing systems. Research themes that will be discussed in this GRC include: 1) novel recognition elements and reporters, 2) recent advances in optical, electrochemical, and mechanical detection, 3) real-world applications including in vivo sensing, 4) the use of nanotechnology to advance the understanding of molecular interactions and integration into sensor designs enabling novel applications, and 5) system integration technologies. Specific topical areas that will be covered include (but are not limited to), single molecule-based sensing, intracellular sensing, biomaterials with enhanced optical or electronic properties, nanomaterials, nanostructures, engineered surfaces, miniaturization and automation, and multiplexed detection in complex matrices. This GRC will also provide for informal discussions on funding opportunities in the area of bioanalytical sensors and strategies for the commercialization of new platform technologies. The collegial atmosphere of this GRC with ample time for discussion during the oral sessions as well as opportunities for discussions during informal gatherings in the afternoons and evenings provides an avenue for scientists/engineers from diverse disciplines to brainstorm and promote new cross-disciplinary collaborations in the various research areas represented. In addition, the Gordon Research Seminar (GRS) will convene immediately preceding the GRC (15 - 16 June 2012). Organized and conducted by graduate students and postdocs, the GRS will provide an opportunity for junior scientists to present their work in a formal and oral or poster format in front of their peers. These students will participate in the subsequent Bioanalytical Sensors GRC providing a unique opportunity to promote interactions between future researchers and established ones. |

| 16.Musculoskeletal Biology & Bioengineering — Musculoskeletal Science: Bedside to Bench to Bedside |
| Dates | 05 Aug 2012 → 10 Aug 2012 | [ID=455783] |
| Location | Andover, NH, United States |
| Organizer | Gordon Research Conferences |
| Abstract | The Gordon Research Conference on Musculoskeletal Biology and Bioengineering (previously titled Bioengineering and Orthopaedic Sciences) has been the premier forum for presentation and discussion of new and unpublished information in the field, and has consistently led to new insights, new interactions, new collaborations, and new research directions. The study of the musculoskeletal system encompasses a number of interdisciplinary fields, particularly biology and bioengineering, and has ultimate applications in clinical areas including orthopaedic surgery, rheumatology, and radiology. The theme of the planned 2012 conference is "Musculoskeletal Science: Bedside to Bench to Bedside," and the meeting will consist of 9 separate sessions, consisting of invited speakers who are experts in their field and selected attendees at various levels of career development. The format of the planned conference remains essentially unchanged from previous years, with ample time for formal and informal discussions. Our unique focus in 2012 is to facilitate the physician-scientist interaction to bring new ideas and treatments to improve the lives of patients. This is exemplified by our session on Translational Studies on Enhancing Soft Tissue Healing, with both physicians and scientists lecturing together on cutting edge solutions and investigations into clinical problems. Some of the chief issues are specific to individual tissues, including bone, articular cartilage, intra-articular ligament, meniscus, and both rotator cuff and flexor tendons, as well as other multi-tissue skeletal structures. A number of key scientific and engineering topics are relevant to fabrication and manipulation of these tissues and organs. The conference will examine many of these topics, including biomaterial fabrication, stem cells, biomarkers, skeletal development, growth and regeneration, and translation of basic research to clinical practice. In addition, the conference also includes several high-profile research areas highlighting the close collaboration required between clinician-scientists and PhDs to improve patients' health outcomes. |
