The Complex Life of mRNA: From Synthesis to Decay
Mar 18, 2010 - Mar 20, 2010,
EMBL Advanced Training Centre Meyerhofst. 1 Heidelberg, Baden-Württemberg Germany 69117

The regulation of gene expression has been studied traditionally at the level of transcription. While a few examples of translational regulation were known, they were considered interesting exceptions to the general rule of regulation at the level of RNA synthesis. However, over the last few years it has become evident that several widespread posttranscriptional, mostly cytoplasmic mechanisms have profound effects on gene expression. All of these mechanisms ultimately contribute to control protein synthesis, either directly, by affecting the rate of translation, or indirectly, by affecting the abundance of mRNA. Some of them exert a qualitative, all-or-none control, for example by complete repression or elimination of certain mRNAs, others determine the intracellular location or the cell-type in which a particular RNA is translated, and still others have a quantitative effect, controlling the amount of protein made from a certain mRNA. The analysis of some of the most exciting aspects of these cytoplasmic mechanisms of gene regulation is a major focus of this meeting. It is co-sponsored by the DFG (FOR855) and EMBL Corporate Partnership Program.

Innovative Market Access Strategies for Medical Devices & Technologies
Mar 18, 2010 - Mar 19, 2010,

Increasing national healthcare budgetary pressures, are forcing manufacturers to think out of the box and implement more innovative reimbursement models and value-based schemes. Demonstrating product value with data that really counts in payers', regulators' and other stakeholders' decision-making processes, is essential in order to gain and retain access in key markets. Budgetary pressures however, could also present an opportunity to the medical devices industry. Many payers are considering, now more then ever, to allocate more funds towards surgical interventions involving devices instead of long-term drug treatments. Market access experts must be able to demonstrate value real evidence-based data for the long-term in order to convince payers that choosing drug therapies may actually cost them more.
