SUMMARY:Epigenetic and Metabolic Regulation of Aging and Aging-Related Diseases
DESCRIPTION:Meeting Summary \nAging poses formidable scientific\, medical and societal challenges. Old age is the single most important risk factor for a constellation of diseases\, including cardiovascular disease\, cancer\, diabetes and a range of neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer’s disease. Aging is also one of the greatest fundamental mysteries in biology\, and arguably its next frontier. Long thought to be inexorable\, aging has in fact been shown to be malleable due to specific changes in genes or environment. This Keystone Symposia meeting will cover the most exciting questions at the forefront of the field: How can external stimuli delay aging in a long-lasting\, yet reversible\, manner? Does the integration of external stimuli to modulate aging differ among cells with vastly diverse functions – somatic maintenance\, tissue regeneration and the “immortal” germline? Is aging a synchronous process\, and how do the different cells and systems communicate? How do diseases of aging develop\, and what can be done to prevent or reverse them? To address these questions\, the symposium will gather investigators from completely different areas to bring an interdisciplinary approach to aging. The meeting will focus on the emerging nexus between two key aging regulators – epigenetic states of the genome and metabolic status – and will highlight innovative technologies and the newest discoveries in aging and diseases. This symposium will also address questions from different perspectives\, taking advantage of model organisms with drastically divergent lifespans and aging strategies. Importantly\, this meeting will particularly discuss human aging and its associated traits – frailty\, susceptibility to diseases – and potential aging therapeutics.

SUMMARY:Nuclear Organization & Function
DESCRIPTION:You are cordially invited to participate in the ninth meeting on Nuclear Organization and Function\, which will be held at Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory. The meeting will begin on the evening of Tuesday\, May 3\, 2016\, and will conclude with lunch on Saturday\, May 7. The specific goal for this meeting is to bring together cellular and molecular biologists to discuss recent advances in the spatial and temporal aspects of nuclear structure/function. \n\nTopics:\n\n\nChromatin Organization\nBiology of Nuclear RNAs\nTranscription\nThe Nuclear Membrane & Nuclear Lamina\nNucleocytoplasmic Transport\nEpigenetics\nGene Expression\nNuclear Functions in Development & Disease\n\n\n\nDiscussion Leaders:\nMartin Beck\, European Molecular Biology Laboratory\, Germany\nWendy Bickmore\, MRC Human Genetics Unit\, UK\nJob Dekker\, University of Massachusetts Medical School\nPeter Fraser\, Babraham Institute\, UK\nJoseph Gall\, Carnegie Institution for Science\nRobert Goldman\, Feinberg School of Medicine\, Northwestern University\nDaniel Larson\, National Cancer Institute\nJohn Lis\, Cornell University\nMatthias Merkenschlager\, Imperial College London\, UK\nTom Misteli\, National Cancer Institute\nKathrin Plath\, University of California Los Angeles\nYaron Shav-Tal\, Bar-Ilan University\, Israel\nJane Skok\, New York University School of Medicine\nAngela Taddei\, Institut Curie/CNRS\, France\nSusan Wente\, Vanderbilt University Medical Center\nYixian Zheng\, Carnegie Institution for Science \n\nThe format of the meeting will include oral sessions consisting of two 15-minute anchoring talks by the discussion leaders and seven 12-minute talks\, selected from the abstracts\, principally on unpublished work. In addition\, there will be two poster sessions\, one in the afternoon and one in the evening. The organizers will decide the suitability of each abstract for oral or poster presentation\, but please specify if you prefer a poster. \nAbstracts should contain only new and unpublished material and must be submitted electronically by the abstract deadline. Selection of material for oral and poster presentation will be made by the organizers and individual session chairs. Status (talk/poster) of abstracts will be posted on our web site as soon as decisions have been made by the organizers. \nWe are eager to have as many young people as possible attend since they are likely to benefit most from this meeting. We have applied for funds from government and industry to partially support graduate students and postdocs. Apply in writing to Val Pakaluk stating need for financial support – preference is given to those submitting abstracts. \nAll questions pertaining to registration\, fees\, housing\, meals\, transportation\, visas\, abstract submission or any other matters should be directed to Val Pakaluk \nWe look forward to seeing you at Cold Spring Harbor in May.
