FASEB SRC announces conference: Glucose transport -- Gateway for Metabolic Systems Biology

February 4th, 2013

The Federation of American Societies for Experimental Biology (FASEB) announces the opening of registration for the Science Research Conference (SRC): Glucose transport: Gateway for Metabolic Systems Biology.

The 2013 FASEB Science Research Conference "Glucose transport: Gateway for Metabolic Systems Biology" is a unique conference where the role of glucose transport in the control of cellular growth and proliferation, and of whole organism metabolic homeostasis, are explored through formal talks, posters and discussions in an informal setting conductive to scientific interaction.

Sessions spanning from atomic mechanisms of glucose transport to systems biology of energy metabolism will be delivered by experts from around the world, and chaired by experienced, leading investigators in each field. An important theme of this conference will be the impact of glucose metabolism research on medically relevant problems such as type 2 diabetes and cancer. To insure timely discussion of emerging information, approximately 30% of the program will be chosen from submitted abstracts.
