第二十七屆生物醫學聯合學術年會邀請函

國內生物醫學研究年度盛事，多項研究成果發表

中華民國臨床生化學會、中華民國毒物學學會、中國生理學會及台灣藥理學會、中華民國解剖學學會、台灣生物化學及分子生物學學會、中華民國細胞及分子生物學學會，將聯合舉辦一○一年度第二十七屆生物醫學聯合學術年會。

生物醫學聯合學術年會謹定於101年3月17-18日（星期六、日）上午八時至下午五時假國防醫學院（台北市內湖區民權東路六段161號）舉行。內容包括大會特別演講、專題演講、研討會、口頭及看板論文報告。

本次聯合學術年會由中華民國臨床生化學會主辦，透過學術發表將生物醫學各領域之重要發現與研究心得於會中提出，提供與會研究人員參與討論。各級學校研究生也以豐碩研究成果參與各學會舉辦之口頭論文及看板論文競賽，以爭取殊榮。除此之外，聯合學術年會現場，還有超過50家生物醫學相關的儀器設備耗材試藥廠商聯合展覽，並提供科技新知研討會，盛況可期。

大會特別演講：

謹定於101年3月18日上午十時邀請中央研究院蔡立慧院士演講：

題目：「那天，外婆忘了回家的路」

地點：國防醫學院三樓致德堂

簡介：

蔡立慧院士，美國麻省理工學院大腦與認知科學系教授，靠著阿茲海默症的研究，成為2008年中研院院士選舉中，最高票與最年輕的女院士。

她的研究，讓著名科學期刊《自然》（Nature）與《科學》（Science）大量刊載。過去，有關阿茲海默症的病因研究，多隻停留在腦中「老人斑」的形成上，但是蔡立慧卻找到了另一個可能的病因。當大家都以為，一旦人患病之後，記憶一旦消失，就不會再回來，蔡立慧卻提出了，記憶可能再恢復的證據，也就是，阿茲海默症是可能被治癒的。

一九九九年，蔡立慧研究團隊一篇登在《自然》雜誌上的論文，震驚學界。她發現，人的腦細胞裏有一種P35 蛋白質，如果分裂成為P10 與P25 的蛋白質後，P25 若失去控制，就會活化名為CDK5 的蛋白質。最後，細胞骨架裏的主要成分Tau會被磷酸化，造成我們所看見，阿茲海默症患者大腦X光圖中的神經纖維化情形。二○○七年五月，蔡立慧的研究團隊在《自然》發表了另一個發現，從動物研究中發現，患了阿茲海默症的老鼠，仍可能透過環境和藥物的刺激，找回記憶。這代表記憶沒有真正消失，只是連接這些記憶的神經通道被阻塞住了。二○一二年三月，蔡立慧院士將帶給大家控制失智開關研究的最新成果。

中華民國臨床生化學會特別演講：

謹定於101年3月17日上午十時邀請江傳箕博士演講：

題目：串聯質譜儀在新生兒代謝疾病的應用

地點：國防醫學院三樓31教室

崔西貝克，罹患苯酮尿症的天文物理博士，代表新生兒基因篩檢驚人的成功案例，從1960年代以來，疾病篩檢的項目越來越多，篩檢技術成熟、讓小病人可以服藥治療，規劃特殊的飲食原則，接受手術或其他治療方式。胺基酸、有機酸、糖類代謝、脂肪酸氧化、基因檢測，設備分析擴展了新生兒篩檢領域的視野，也為生命起始了預防保健。江傳箕博士將在生醫年會與大家分享二十年的經驗以及篩檢的新趨勢。

中華民國臨床生化學會學術研討會：

謹定於101年3月17日下午一時三十分，舉行幹細胞學術研討會：

體細胞核轉殖技術創造了桃莉羊，利用病人本身製造出來的多潛能幹細胞，可以解決免疫排斥的問題，誘導式多潛能幹細胞為研究和可能的臨床應用打開了一扇全新的窗，幹細胞療法即將有革命性進展。本屆生醫年會，邀請了北醫、台大、榮總的四位專家，敬請臨床生化學會會員追蹤足跡，共赴饗宴。

中華民國臨床生化學會口頭及看板論文報告：

時間：98年3月17日

地點：國防醫學院三樓

口頭論文，報告12分鐘，討論3分鐘。看板論文，展示1小時。

中華民國臨床生化學會論文競賽獎勵：於17日下午三時四十分於31教室頒獎。
