Conference Student Scholarships: Genomic Instability and DNA Repair
Scholarship Deadline: September 30, 2010 (Midnight US Mountain Standard Time)
The maintenance of genomic integrity following DNA damage depends on the coordination of DNA repair, cell cycle progression, transcriptional and post-transcriptional regulation and apoptosis. The integrity of the DNA damage response pathways plays a critical role in human health. This meeting will present the most recent advance in the field and reveal how a complex network of signaling transduction pathways are involved in DNA damage response. The topics include early detection of DNA lesions, DNA damage checkpoint control, DNA repair, genotoxic damage in cancer stem cells, modulation of DNA damage signaling by microRNAs, systems biology approaches to DNA damage and the use of cutting edge technologies in the study of DNA damage responses.
Keystone Symposia is offering scholarships to students and post-docs this conference season. These scholarships, of up to $1000 each, are to be used to help defray the expenses associated with conference attendance, including air (on a U.S. air carrier), ground transportation and lodging costs. Receipts will be required to receive reimbursement.
Abstracts submitted for poster presentation will be used as the basis for awarding the scholarships. Conference organizers will select the scholarship recipients based on the quality of science of the abstract and the relevance of the abstract to the conference topic. Only one application per abstract is accepted.
