Cambridge Healthtech Institute Inaugural Innovative Tissue-Based Diagnostics Conference

June 4-5, 2012 Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Innovative Tissue-Based Diagnostics is designed to feature recent breakthroughs in the field of pathology such as testing for predictive cancer biomarkers, decoding cancer molecular profiles, next generation sequencing, circulating tumor cells, etc. The goal of the conference is to enhance knowledge and experience exchange among industry and research pathologists as well as other researchers working with human tissue. This meeting will highlight the new generation of tissue-based diagnostic technologies aimed primarily towards molecular diagnostics of cancer. In addition, a session dedicated to the fascinating field of in vivo pathology will be offered.

KEY TAKE AWAYS:
• Learn about pathology's contribution and role in cancer drug development
• Get updates on how cancer pathology helps create genetically informed cancer medicine
• Learn how next generation sequencing has revolutionized genomics and is now on the verge of being widely adopted for medical sequencing
• Hear insights into in vivo microscopy and intra-operative optical imaging – a fascinating new and rapidly developing field of diagnostic medicine
• Get instructed on the challenges and solutions in assay development for the clinical setting

SESSIONS:

• Pathology in Cancer Drug Development
• Molecular Pathology as the Driving Force for Personalized Oncology
• Bridging Radiology-Pathology Divide

Microscopy & Microanalysis 2012

July 29 – August 2, 2012 Phoenix, Arizona

The annual M&M meeting continues to be the premier meeting for scientists, technologists, and students who use microscopy or microanalysis in their research. The Program
Committee has put together an outstanding scientific program that brings the latest advances in the biological and physical sciences, techniques and instrumentation. Complementing the program is one of the largest exhibitions of microscopy and microanalysis instrumentation and resources in the world.

Educational opportunities include a variety of Sunday short courses, tutorials, evening vendor tutorials, and in-week intensive workshops. After a successful inauguration at M&M 2011, the daily poster awards will continue to highlight the best student posters in instrumentation & techniques, biological applications of microscopy & microanalysis, and physical applications of microscopy & microanalysis.

Probing the Interior 1800-2012

Conference to take place:

Friday 25 May 2012

The Courtauld Institute of Art and King's College London

Bodily, psychic and spatial interiors can be mapped, traversed and violated in multiple ways. This one-day conference will interrogate and re-evaluate the contested terrain of the interior in its varied forms. It will examine the interlacing and overlapping of different types of interiors, and seek to re-position the ‘interior’ in critical terms. Moreover, it will attempt to develop new ways of thinking about the relationship between the decorative arts, furniture, bio-technologies, anatomy and space. The conference will take place in The Courtauld Institute of Art Research Forum and conclude with a keynote address in the Anatomy Theatre at King’s College London.

The conference will be built around three themes: Threshold, Incision and Autopsy.

This conference welcomes papers from across a wide range of periods and regions. Issues addressed might include, but are not limited to:

• Modes of mapping space

• Figurative and literal gateways/boundaries

• Temporality and space

• Space and subjectivity

• Domestic interiors

• Decorative arts and the body

• The fabrication of furniture

• Anatomical drawing

• Different types of medical imaging

• Medical portraiture

Organised by Dr Lucetta Johnson (The Courtauld Institute of Art) and Dr Keren Hammerschlag (King’s College London)

This event is supported by The Courtauld Institute of Art Research Forum and the Centre for the Humanities and Health, King’s College London
