 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 This GRC will serve as a conduit for collegial discussions of unpublished data in biochemistry, biology, chemistry, engineering, medicine, and physics as they apply to the development and applications of bioanalytical sensors.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.

8.ORS — Optical Remote Sensing of the Environment
 Dates 24 Jun 2012 → 28 Jun 2012
[ID=457470] Go to top of page
 LocationMonterey, United States
 Abstract The scope of the Optical Remote Sensing of the Environment Conference will focus on three general areas: sensors, algorithms and phenomena, and applications. With regard to sensors, the conference will focus especially on hyperspectral and multi-spectral imaging sensors, LiDAR, and multi-sensor imaging (for example, hyperspectral combined with LiDAR or hyperspectral and other non-optical remote sensing modalities such as RADAR). Under the general area of algorithms and phenomena, papers will focus on topics such as methods to correct data (atmospheric correction), exploitation methods using a variety of methods (for example radiative transfer and image classification, detection, or change detection methodologies). Papers will also address specific topics related to retrievals such as ocean color and land biophysical or geophysical parameters. Other analysis techniques and tools will also be covered, for example, compression, sensor fusion, and data visualization and GIS/information management. Application topics will address a broad range of topics where optical sensors are used to characterize the environment, such as the coastal ocean, forestry, agriculture, or environmental monitoring and natural resource monitoring and management.

9.Diffraction Methods in Structural Biology
 Dates 15 Jul 2012 → 20 Jul 2012
[ID=455429] Go to top of page
 LocationLewiston, ME, United States
 Organizer Gordon Research Conferences
 Abstract Advances in methodologies have played a major role in the dramatic progress in macromolecular crystallography over the past decade, both in terms of overall productivity and in the increasing complexity of the systems being successfully tackled.

The 2012 Gordon Research Conference on Diffraction Methods in Structural Biology will focus on the most recent developments in methodology, covering all aspects of the experiment from crystallization to data collection, processing and structure refinement and validation; the conference will also cover the progress in the development of the next generation of sources available for structural biology of the latest x-ray sources developed for x-ray diffraction, as well as examples of the application of complementary methods and examples of structural highlights. Extensive discussion by all participants will be encouraged, both at the talk and poster sessions. As in past meetings, participants presenting posters will be eligible to give an oral presentation of their work in a dedicated session.

The relatively small size and informal and friendly atmosphere of the meeting provides an excellent opportunity for all participants, especially younger scientists, to meet and exchange ideas with leading methods developers.

10.Lasers in Medicine & Biology — Towards Molecular Imaging In Vivo
 Dates 22 Jul 2012 → 27 Jul 2012
[ID=455576] Go to top of page
 LocationHolderness, NH, United States
 Organizer Gordon Research Conferences
 Abstract The Gordon conference on Lasers in Medicine & Biology started in 1965, and since the 1970s has run every second year, as one of the premiere scientific meetings for creative research in this field. It provides a junction point between the fields of biomedical optics, laser and optical system development, imaging, spectroscopy, biology and medicine. The objective of this conference is to bring together international researchers from academia, hospitals and clinics, national laboratories, and industries to jointly examine how new optical technologies has revolutionized existing procedures in medical practice, provide new knowledge in biology, and pave the way for new pharmaceutical and medical procedure developments. The explicit goals of this high-impact meeting are to encourage scientific exchange between biomedical optics researchers from academic labs, clinical research, commercial enterprises and national laboratories, to critically assess the state of our field and to set goals for the future.

There are 9 technical sessions currently scheduled to provide a broad and comprehensive coverage of the biomedical photonics fields while giving in-depth examination of several rapidly developing subfields. Some sessions are technology focused, while others are biomedical need focused.
