Electron Microscopy in the Molecular Era: A World Inside the World You See

A Window into the Body

Friday, October 17, 2008, 1:30–3:30 pm

The Anlyan Center Auditorium

300 Cedar Street, New Haven

The complete sequencing of the human genome, and many other genomes has given rise to the field of proteomics, which seeks to extend genomic discoveries to the level of the corresponding proteins. New technologies are being rapidly developed to quantify the concentrations of individual proteins, along with their many post-translational modifications in vivo, and also to identify differentially expressed biomarker proteins that may enable the earlier diagnosis, improved prognosis, and more “personalized” treatment of disease. This workshop will highlight the impact of proteomics on biomedical research covering a range of disease applications from hypertension to drug addiction and to the effect of bioterrorism and infectious disease agents. The workshop will also describe the state-ofthe- art proteomics technologies available at Yale’s W.M. Keck Foundation Biotechnology Resource Laboratory and its associated centers.
