About SEBM Awards Committees Journal Membership
197 West Spring Valley |
MeetingsThe Society for Experimental Biology and Medicine holds an annual member's meeting in conjunction with the EB meetings each year. In 2007,the Member's Reception was held at the Renaissance Washington DC Hotel, where one of the Mentoring Award Program recipients, Melissa Wei Li accepted her award presented by President Charles Blake with Ms Li's Mentor Dr. Mark Chapleau looking on (left photo). The Society arranged for an exhibit booth to display the new EBM journal and promote membership. Pictured right are Nancy Blake, SEBM administrative and editorial assistant and Council Member Neil Shay manning the SEBM booth at the Washington Convention Center.
SEBM Symposium at EB 2007, Washington D.C."Nanotechnology, Biology, and Medicine in SEBM's Second Century" Date: Sunday, April 29 — 3:15-5:15 PM Location: Washington, DC Convention Center — Room 147B SEBM gratefully acknowledges Genentech for their donation in support of this symposium. Chairs: Burton E. Sobel, University of Vermont and Charles A. Blake, University of South Carolina This symposium will address the promise of nanotechnology in biology and medicine with respect to three general areas including: 1) the promise of nanotechnology in prevention of disease; 2) the promise of nanotechnology in improved diagnosis; and 3) the promise of nanotechnology in enhanced therapy. Speakers will focus on specific approaches taken and illustrate them with descriptions of specific applications of nanotechnology. Examples include: 1) elucidation of biological structures in the 5-500 nm size range and their role in determining function particularly with respect to electron transport and biological oxidations (Dr. S. Sliger); 2) engineered viruses for biomedical science with consideration of their potential role in drug delivery (Dr. M.G. Finn); and 3) applications of nanotechnology in cardiovascular surgery with emphasis on modulation of the systemic inflammatory response syndrome (Dr. T. Gourlay). Dr. Steven Goodman, editor of Experimental Biology and Medicine, will present some thoughts regarding the journal’s emphasis on the nanotechnology, informatics, integrated and multidisciplinary research in the Society for Experimental Biology and Medicine’s second century.
