Scientists have recently made enormous strides toward elucidating the multiple functions of genes in adult animals. Remarkably, this has revealed unanticipated connections between organs. This progress allows us to now ask much broader questions related to the physiology of organisms and to analyze its impact on the molecular pathogenesis of degenerative diseases.
At this meeting, presentations by top researchers will summarize where the field of integrative physiology is and how we can move the field forward.
This 2.5-day conference has been designed to explore the genetic basis of the known functions of many organs, the identification of novel physiological functions for various organs and the definition of genetic cascades leading to frequent degenerative diseases such as metabolic syndrome, heart failure and osteoporosis.
Call for Abstracts
We invite you to submit an abstract for participation in a Poster Session. Deadline for abstract submission is Friday, March 14, 2008. To receive complete instructions for abstract submission, please send an email to IPHconf@nyas.org. Type the words Abstract Information
in the subject line. (You do not need to type a message.) Instructions
will be forwarded automatically. Any questions, call 212.298.8624.
Abstract submission does not guarantee a seat at the conference. You must register via the website or the fax form to ensure a seat.
Although the organizing committee has selected a group of outstanding speakers, ten additional speakers will be chosen from submitted abstracts to present during data blitz sessions at the conference. In addition, the meeting is planned so the posters will be an integral component of the meeting.
