6th International Planetary Probe Workshop (IPPW-6)

Jun 21, 2008 - Jun 27, 2008,
Georgia Institute of Technology, Atlanta, Georgia United States

Explore technological challenges and scientific opportunities associated with entry, descent, landing and flight in planetary atmospheres with fellow scientists, technologists, engineers, mission designers, and policy-makers interested in the exploration of solar system bodies with substantial atmospheres.

Building on previous successes, the workshop will promote international cooperation in probe missions to solar system moons and planets with atmospheres and provide students—the next generation of planetary scientists—and spacecraft engineers, an opportunity to participate.

12th Congress of International Society for Peritoneal Dialysis

Jun 21, 2008 - Jun 24, 2008,
Lütfi Kırdar Convention & Exhibition Center Istanbul Turkey

The 11th Congress of the ISPD in August 2006, Hong Kong was a huge success. It attracted over 2500 participants from all parts of the world. They witnessed not only the success of the Congress, but also the success of peritoneal dialysis therapy. Leaving the Congress, participants were convinced that PD is a successful renal replacement therapy and should play a more important role in renal replacement therapy. Unfortunately, due to various factors, PD therapy was not very well received in many parts of the world. The message is clear: we have to further improve PD therapy and care, and win the advocacy of the nephrology community and CKD patients for PD with better results.

The motto of the 12th Congress of the ISPD “Positioning PD towards the Future” is very appropriate in this context. The year 2008 will be the right time for us to display the latest results of PD research and development, to define the superiority of PD therapy and its role in renal replacement therapy. The Congress will carry the energy and momentum in developing PD further.

5th International Conference on Innate Immunity

Jun 21, 2008 - Jun 26, 2008,
Minoa Palace Conference Center & Hotel / Porto Platanias Hotel Chania, Crete, Greece

The advent of high-throughput platforms for genome and proteome-wide filing, together with the enormous amount of raw genetic information that has accumulated in the databases, have stirred new expectations in biomedical research. They have led scientists to revisit established biological systems from a global and integrative perspective. Innate Immunity research is now faced with the challenge of trying to integrate isolated biochemical pathways into complex gene and protein regulatory circuits. In this respect, scientists from around the world convened at the 4th International Conference on Innate Immunity (June 4 - 9, 2006), in Corfu, Greece to discuss recent advances in this fast evolving field. This volume represents a
collection of topics on natural killer cells, mast cells, phagocytes, toll like receptors, complement, host defense in plants and invertebrates, evasion strategies of microorganisms, pathophysiology, protein structures, design of therapeutics, and experimental approaches discussed during the conference.
