筒井会員より、7月にフランスで開催されるRegPep2016の案内をいただきました。詳細は添付のPDFファイルをご覧下さい。
Dear Colleagues,
On behalf of the International Regulatory Peptide Society, the International Neuropeptide Society/Society for Biologically Active Peptides, the Summer Neuropeptide Conferences, the European Neuropeptide Club and the Groupe Français des Peptides et des Protéines, we would like to invite you to Rouen (Normandy, France) from July 12th to 14th, 2016 to participate to the RegPep2016. The venue of the RegPep2016 will be the Law Faculty, a beautiful new building located in downtown Rouen, on the bank of the Seine River, within walking distance from the Place du Vieux-Marché (where Joan of Arc was burnt alive in 1431) and the famous Cathedral, painted by Claude Monet.
An International Scientific Program Committee has evaluated the Symposium proposals that we have collected and has established and exciting program that will favor translational research. Sessions will thus address both basic and clinical issues. Participation of clinicians and private companies is encouraged. Basic research will also be well represented with some sessions addressing for instance evolutionary aspects. Coming to RegPep2016, you will be able to learn about the most recent advances on peptides that regulate cell, tissue or organ functions in physiological or pathological conditions.
The scientific program will comprise a Lay-public Conference, 3 Plenary Lectures, 20 Symposia with 80 State-of-the-Art Lectures, 32 Free Oral Communications selected from the abstracts, 12 Communications from Young Investigators and 2 Poster Sessions. The social events, included in the registration fee of all participants and accompanying persons, will comprise a get-together party on Tuesday July 12th, a visit of Rouen Museums (this summer, Rouen will accommodate a unique Impressionism festival) and a Banquet Dinner on Wednesday July 13th, and a visit of Rouen plus a firework display on the Seine River on Thursday July 14th. Travel awards for young investigators (graduate students and postdoctoral fellows) will be available. Some satellite meetings will be organized before the RegPep2016 (July 11th) and an optional excursion to Etretat will be proposed after the meeting (July 15th). We very much hope that you will be able to join us for this major international meeting on bioactive peptides in Rouen in 2016. At this meeting, you will also meet old friends and colleagues, and initiate new relationships with others working in fields similar to your own.
In the meantime, if there is anything that we can do to help you attend the Congress; please do not hesitate to contact us directly at david.vaudry@univ-rouen.fr.
