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:Catalyst Grants
DESCRIPTION:Breast Cancer Now is the UK’s leading breast cancer research charity. They believe research is what will ultimately give women with breast cancer more time to live. Their goal: by the year 2050\, no one dies from this disease. \nIn order to reach this goal they have launched a new funding initiative called “Breast Cancer Now Catalyst Programme”. It is meant to bring bring together Europe’s leading breast cancer researchers and the world’s leading pharmaceutical companies to pool resources and stop women dying from breast cancer. \nTheir partner Pfizer provides substantial funding for research grant as well as access to a number of its licensed and investigational drugs that may be useful for treating breast cancer. \nBreast Cancer Now will use its peer review process to decide which research projects will be supported and will have access to Pfizer’s drugs. Pfizer will not be involved in making the decisions about which projects are funded. \nDuration of funding: – \nCovered costs:  £300\,000 for a single research question and may be based at one or multiple sites and £1 million in total for studies of exceptional potential (address a range of questions around a common theme\, or undertake research using several of the Pfizer drugs\, or multi-centre phase II clinical studies) \nNationalities: Europe

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.

SUMMARY:Chromatin Structure and Function: Regulating and Re-Engineering Chromatin: Control of Genome Function
DESCRIPTION:Meeting Description\n\nThe 2016 Gordon Conference on Chromatin Structure and Function will present leading-edge research on chromatin and its role in regulating gene expression\, genome function and cell states. The meeting will highlight how chromatin structures\, ranging from the nucleosome – the “building block” of chromatin – up to the dynamic three-dimensional spatial organization of chromatin\, are regulated and how they control genome functions. \nQuestions at the frontier of the field will be addressed – how is the activity of chromatin proteins regulated\, what is the cross-talk between different chromatin states\, how does folding of chromatin allow for long-range gene regulation\, what is the role of RNA in directing chromatin structure? \nPresentations will encompass a wide variety of technical approaches – from Angstrom level description of chromatin components to visualization of micron-scale structures by light microscopy\, and the use of quantitative proteomics and computational modeling. There will be a focus on new methods for engineering and re-engineering chromatin states to determine the relationships between chromatin structure and function\, and on analysis at the level of single molecules and single cells. \nThis conference has a long history of attracting the very top researchers in the area of chromatin structure and function\, and is an important forum for fostering new ideas\, interactions and collaborations. We aim to integrate new members into this growing field; talks will be reserved for young scientists and minorities\, and all applicants will have the opportunity to present a poster on their work. Many platform presentation topics will be selected from submitted abstracts to ensure inclusion of the latest developments during the formal sessions. Sufficient discussion time will be scheduled into every session to promote the lively exchange of ideas and interpretations and there will be ample time set aside in the afternoons and after the evening sessions for the informal interactions that have always played a key role at this conference.
