Ion Channels and Transporters in Immunity, Inflammation and Antitumor Immunity
Marine Biological Laboratory, Woods Hole, MA
This 74th Annual Meeting of the Society of General Physiologists will be the first international conference fully dedicated to the topic of Ion Channels and Transporters in the immune system. This meeting will provide a unique opportunity for immunologists and ion channel physiologists to discuss the latest advances in the regulation, function and physiological roles of ion channels in innate and adaptive immunity. Leading scientists from academia and industry will present their latest research, and the organizers are especially keen on welcoming trainees and new investigators with budding interests in this rapidly emerging arena.

EMBO|FEBS Lecture Course on Ion channels and transporters: From molecule to man
Erice, Italy
This course is designed to provide an overview of the latest aspects of ion channel and transporter research. Topics covered will include structural, functional and computational aspects, as well as more general themes, such as publishing and the role of women in science. Additionally, the course will feature didactic tutorials and some hands-on exercises. There will be ample opportunities for discussion and ad hoc interactions between students and lecturers. Lastly, the small town of Erice provides a relaxed and beautiful setting for the course.
