Welcome to the web site for the upcoming International
Conference «Molecular mechanisms of intracellular calcium signalling» in
Kyiv, organized by Bogomoletz Institute of Physiology, Ukraine
This event coincides with Jubilee of
Prof. Platon Kostyuk. On behalf of prof. Kostyuk we would like to invite you
to participate in this Meeting.
Understanding the molecular mechanisms of calcium signalling
pathways is of key importance for cell biology. It is also important for
biomedical research as the pathologies concerning with intracellular calcium
homeostasis lead to diseases of many kinds, in particular brain and muscular
ones can be considered as the calcium signal transduction diseas. The aim of the
meeting is to bring together leaders of the field, young newly established group
leaders and students. We aim to show important new developments in well
established and new pathways. We also want to present and discuss systemic
approaches to understand calcium signalling networks and how they get out of
control. There will be extensive poster sessions and oral presentations selected
from the posters.
You will meet leading experts and scientific celebrities and
are leaders in the field.
Kiev is the capital of Ukraine with population of about 3 million citizens. It
is situated on the Dnepr River and boasts architectural monuments that are
recognized world treasures. Kiev is the largest cultural, scientific and
industrial center of Ukraine, the place of religious pilgrimage and a very
attractive tourist destination. Its beautiful landscapes, parks and gardens
charm and captivate. Hospitable Ukrainians will be delighted to introduce Slavic
culture to their foreign guests. We are sure the city, once capital of medieval
kings, will provide a pleasant and inspiring background for our scientific
meeting.
We are looking forward to meeting you there and will be glad to welcome you to
the conference.
