◆ 会议简介:
2021年第74届普通生理学家学会(SGP)年会/年度研讨会将于2021年9月8日至12日在美国马萨诸塞州伍兹霍尔霍尔海洋生物实验室举行。
普通生理学家学会(SGP)成立于1946年,SGP的宗旨是促进和传播普通生理学领域的知识和兴趣,其国际会员由近1000名在学术界、政府和工业界工作的职业生理学家组成。SGP以促进和培育与膜运输和离子通道、膜结构、调节和动力学、细胞收缩性和分子马达相关的研究而闻名。SGP的主要活动是在伍兹霍尔的海洋生物实验室举行的年度专题研讨会。——未经本站许可,禁止复制转载镜像本站任何内容—领域国际医学会议网。
Ion channels and Transporters (ICTs) regulate key aspects of intracellular signaling, cell physiology and gene expression in the immune system. These membrane proteins have emerged as control switches for electrical signals that shape the immunological and inflammatory responses during infection, cancer and autoimmune diseases. However, in contrast to excitable cell types such as neurons and cardiomyocytes, our understanding of electrical signaling in the immune system is in its nascent stages. Historically, the modern frameworks of both immunology and ion channel physiology have evolved with their own distinct underpinnings of concepts and methods – and this divide is further exacerbated by dauntingly specialized parlance of both fields. Since ICTs have proven to be excellent drug targets, this striking deficit in our knowledge and research effort is a clearly missed opportunity in basic immunology as well its clinical applications.
The 74th Annual Meeting of the Society of General Physiologist will be the first international conference fully dedicated to the topic of ICTs in the immune system. This meeting will provide a unique opportunity for immunologists and ion channel physiologists to discuss latest advances in the regulation, function and physiological roles of ion channels in innate and adaptive immunity. Leading scientists from academia and industry will present their latest research, and the organizers are especially keen on welcoming trainees and new investigators with budding interests in this rapidly emerging arena.
The keynote address will be given by Michael Cahalan from UC Irvine, who pioneered the first to study ion channels in lymphocytes and who has made numerous important contributions to this field in the last three decades.
