Narrative Dominions: On Writing the History of the Novel in English
Jul 20, 2009 - Jul 22, 2009,
Institute of English Studies, Senate House, University of London London, England United Kingdom

Narrative Dominions will address the shifting terrains and overlapping dominions of English-language prose fiction from its origins to the present day, bringing together aesthetic, generic, geographical, material, socio-political, and theoretical aspects of literary history. The conference is linked to the forthcoming multi-volume Oxford History of the Novel in English , to be published by Oxford University Press from 2010 onwards. There will be sessions devoted to book history, popular fiction, the novel's relationship to other genres, American fiction, world fiction in English, and the British and Irish novel at different periods. We invite proposals for 20-minute papers involving the presentation of new research or interpretation and/or critical reflection on the challenges of writing literary history in any of these fields.

The conference will provide an open forum for debate about the plan and purpose of the Oxford History , the approaches to be taken in specific volumes, the treatment of individual topics, and the opportunities and difficulties to which the series must respond arising from our current research context. Submissions from editors, contributors, and potential contributors to the series are particularly welcome. The programme will also include keynote lectures, an opportunity to meet the in-house editorial team at Oxford University Press, and an editors' panel.

Conference on Applied Inverse Problems (AIP 2009)
Jul 20, 2009 - Jul 24, 2009,
Vienna Austria

The field of Inverse Problems is meanwhile well established within the applied sciences, today's advances in hardware and algorithms allow to address complex real-world problems of inverse nature. They arise from pressing questions in - among others - medical and industrial applications as well as life and earth sciences.

The series of AIP Conferences aims to provide a primary international forum for researchers working on diverse aspects of applied inverse problems - ranging from mathematical modelling via functional analytic theories and methods towards computational approaches. Each conference presents invited talks by international experts as well as a sequence of minisymposia on topics of current interest. The venues are chosen to encourage a strong interaction between the participants.

12th Equadiff Conference
Jul 20, 2009 - Jul 24, 2009,
Masaryk University Brno, Czech Republic

Under the name "Equadiff" a series of important international conferences on differential equations have been organized in Europe during the last decades. The first one took place in Prag (1962) and the second one in Bratislava (1966). From 1970 on the location alternated between Czech Republic/Slovakia and various countries of Western Europe. The most recent Equadiff conferences took place in Vienna (2007), Bratislava (2005), Hasselt (2003), Prag (2001), and Berlin (1999) .

17th International Conference on Modelling, Monitoring and Management of Air Pollution
Jul 20, 2009 - Jul 22, 2009,
Tallin, Estonia

The goal of this conference is to bring together researchers who are active in the study of air contaminants and to exchange information through the presentation and discussion of papers dealing with the wide variety of topics listed opposite. Case study papers are encouraged, as well as papers of a more theoretical nature, dealing with advanced mathematical and computational methods, will also be within the scope of the Conference.

Air Pollution is one of the most challenging problems facing the international community; it is widespread and growing in importance and has clear and known impacts on health and the environment. The human need for transport, manufactured goods and services brings with it impacts on the atmospheric environment at scales from the local to the global. The rate of development of the global economy brings new pressures and the willingness of governments to regulate air pollution is often balanced by concerns over the economic impact of such regulation. Science is the key to identifying the nature and scale of air pollution impacts and is essential in the formulation of policies for regulatory decision-making. Continuous improvements in our knowledge of the fundamental science of air pollution and its application are necessary if we are to predict properly, assess and mitigate the air pollution implications of changes to the interlinked local, regional, national and international economic systems.

Cell Based Assays in Drug Development, CA
Jul 20, 2009 - Jul 21, 2009,
San Diego, California United States

Cell based assays are a very integral part of preclinical development. Companies use these assays as scientifically sound alternatives to in-vivo testing and are to advance compounds quickly through drug development. They are, however, extremely complex and unique and there is no magic formula to follow to ensure these assays will work. Attend this two day interactive course to understand the basics of cell based assay development and gain hands-on instruction on how to develop robust, reliable assays and stay ahead of your competition.

The program kicks off with Emily Shacter from the Food and Drug Administration giving the agency’s perspectives on cell based assays. Section I of the program includes a brief introduction to cell based assays and the potential benefits and downsides of using CBAs. Learn how to comply with regulatory requirements and how to produce and engineer stable cell lines. Section II addresses the basics of cell based assays including development, validation and transfer to quality control. Participants learn how to use statistical tools and techniques to analyze HTS data and avoid potential problems by effectively troubleshooting data. Section III of the program covers new technologies and CBA emerging trends. Learn how to identify and overcome major challenges and pitfalls often encountered during cell based assay work. Throughout the duration of the program, attendees will participate in Q&A sessions, interactive exercises and case studies help ensure learning is transferred to on-the-job improvement.
