We are pleased to announce the Cold Spring Harbor Asia conference on Cell Signaling in Metabolism, Inflammation and Cancer, which will be held at the Suzhou Dushu Lake Conference Center in Suzhou, China, located approximately 60 miles west of Shanghai. The conference will begin at 7:00pm on the evening of Monday September 2, and will conclude after lunch on Friday September 6, 2013.

The conference will include eight oral sessions and one poster session. Many talks will be selected from the openly submitted abstracts on the basis of scientific merit and relevance. Social events throughout the conference provide ample opportunity for informal interactions.


Major Topics:
>Nutrient sensing, stress and autophagy
>Signaling structure basis and modeling
>Immune sensing and signaling
>Cancer stemness and drug resistance
>Inflammation and carcinogenesis
>Metastasis
>Novel signaling pathways
>Cell death signaling and carcinogenesis
>Therapeutic implications of kinome reprogramming
>Tumor environment
>Humanized mouse models

We encourage abstracts to contain new and unpublished materials. The abstracts must be submitted electronically by the abstract deadline. Selection of material for oral and poster presentation will be made by the organizers. Status (fellow's talk/poster) of abstracts will be posted on our web site as soon as decisions have been made by the organizers.  


Fellowship:
We are eager to have as many young people as possible attend since they are likely to benefit most from this meeting. A certain number of presentations by graduate students and postdocs in this conference will be selected as fellowship (USD $200-$500) awards. For more details, please visit Stipends

We look forward to seeing you at Suzhou in September 2013.
