THE JACKSON LABORATORY MEETING: THE
MOUSE AS AN INSTRUMENT FOR EAR RESEARCH
III
Registrations are being accepted for The Jackson
Laboratory Meeting:
The Mouse as an Instrument for Ear Research
III
Sep 18, 2008 - Sep 21, 2008
To be held at the Jackson Laboratory in Bar Harbor,
Maine
Limited travel scholarships are available to
qualified students and postdocs. Requests for
scholarship consideration should include a brief
description who you are, the scope of your
research, and the reason for your request.
Scholarship award amounts depend on the number of
qualified applications demonstrating need. First
consideration will be given to persons submitting
abstracts for posters or talks. The deadline for
award requests is August 31st. Limited shared
housing may be available; please state your request
for this in your award application.
Building upon the success of the 2003 and 2005
meetings, this meeting provides a unique
opportunity for established investigators and
students to interact and exchange ideas regarding
the use of new and developing technologies to study
the ear of the mouse. One objective is to provide
non-mouse researchers an introduction to the mouse
through reviews, tutorials and hands-on workshops.
Another objective is to provide state-of-the-art
information to experienced investigators through
research talks on new developments and special
topics of current interest. Finally, meeting
participants are provided an opportunity to
communicate their research findings through podium
and poster presentations.
Preliminary topic list:
- Proteomics
- RNAi application
- Regeneration stem cell replacement
- Electrophysiology acoustic emissions
- Free radicals, from toxicity and noise
- Eye movement Recordings in Mice
- Mouse models of otitis media
- Biomethods & Mouse Genetics
- Emerging tools: non-invasive and new
approaches to imaging
- New ENU mutants
- Ear development
- KOMP and European projects
- Brain mechanisms, central nervous system
compensatory remodeling, behavioral consequences
