Neurotox '07

 
  June 27, 2006  
     
 
University of Portsmouth, Portsmouth
10-13 September 2007


Neurotox’07 will present the latest research in a number of related areas of neurotoxicology where applications of genomics, computational biology and molecular biology are rapidly advancing our knowledge of nervous system development, organisation and function and are also enhancing our understanding of the sites and modes of action of neurotoxicants. The conference will bring together scientists involved in basic research with those applying this work to tackle problems of resistance to drugs and pest control agents. The use of invertebrate and vertebrate models to investigate the differential toxicity necessary for developing novel pest control agents will be discussed. Neurotox’07 aims to disseminate state-of –the-art research in nerve function and neurotoxicology and elucidate ways in which this can be used to improve the control of parasitic diseases and invertebrate pests, particularly in tropical areas where these have significant impact on the quality of human life. The programme will be of interest to all neuroscientists and other researchers developing neuroactive molecules, including toxicologists from industry, research organisations, governmental laboratories and managers who wish to obtain an overview of this exciting field.

Themes and call for papers on the following areas:
Tropical pest toxicology and genomics; Crop pest toxicology and genomics; Parasite neurotoxicology and drug resistance; Molecular toxicology in silico; Vertebrate neurotoxicology; Recent advances in toxinology.
