SUMMARY:Molecular and Cellular Biology of Helminth Parasites Conference registration deadline
DESCRIPTION:Helminth parasitology has proven to be one of the fastest 
 growing research areas across a spectrum of scientific activities from
  genomics\, immunology and tropical medicine. With rapidly increasing 
 sequence information\, new drug development for therapy\, and intricat
 e host-parasite molecular interactions\, research on these organisms a
 nd the diseases they cause is becoming ever more exciting and relevant
  to global health. A key element in the success of helminth research h
 as been the collaborative and interactive community of investigators w
 orking in this field.\n\nConferences on the Molecular and Cellular Bio
 logy of Helminth Parasites have been an integral part of the rapid dev
 elopment of this whole field. The conference series started with the f
 irst two meetings in Edinburgh in 1997 and 1999\, and moved to the isl
 and of Hydra\, Greece in 2002. Subsequent conferences have been held i
 n Hydra in 2005\, 2008 and 2010.\n\nAll major areas of helminth resear
 ch are included\, in 12 thematic sessions. An important aspect of this
  meeting\, is the interface between parasite biologists and investigat
 ors from worm model systems such as C. elegans\, which is proving high
 ly effective at bringing new blood and fresh perspectives into the fie
 ld. The Conferences offer a special atmosphere of concentrated science
 \, interactive discussions and generous opportunities for informal fol
 low-ups.
