Progress in Optical Biophysics (Joseph R. Lackowicz, Conference Chair) Symposium: Flow Cytometric Analysis of Molecular Assemblies Co-Chairs: Larry Sklar, National Flow Cytometry Resource and University of New Mexico; John Nolan, National Flow Cytometry Resource, Los Alamos National Lab This symposium will highlight recent developments in flow cytometric instrumentation and applications for the analysis of molecular assemblies, both in vitro and in live cells. Recent advances in kinetic capabilities for flow cytometry enable access to second and sub-second time domains on which molecular interactions occur. Combined with the ability of flow cytometry to provide sensitive and quantitative fluorescent measurements, these capabilities have opened a new window on the mechanisms of molecular assembly which are central to cell function. Topics to be covered include: - Automated sample handling for flow cytometric kinetic analysis - Microsphere-based analysis of molecular interactions by flow cytometry - Molecular assembly of signal transduction in live cells - Equilibrium and kinetic analysis of protein-protein interactions - Real-time analysis of DNA processing enzymes - and others This symposium is just one of 33 topics to be held at the BiOS '98 symposium, which is part of the larger event called Photonics West '98: 24-30 January 1998 San Jose Convention Center San Jose, California USA TO OBTAIN ALL CALLS FOR PAPERS ELECTRONICALLY The calls for papers for all conferences in the BiOS '98 symposium are available on the SPIE Web site at http://www.spie.org/web/meetings/calls/pw98/pw98call_bios.html For a printed BiOS '98 call for papers or other information: E-mail: pw98@spie.org Fax: 360/647-1445 Phone: 360/676-3290 IMPORTANT DEADLINES Paper Abstracts Due from Authors: 30 June 1997 (post-meeting proceedings) Advance Programs due from Chairs: 28 July 1997 (post-meeting proceedings) Camera-Ready Abstracts due from Authors: 24 November 1997 Manuscripts Due from Authors: 29 December 1997 (post-meeting proceedings) GUIDELINES FOR SUBMITTING AN ABSTRACT Send a 250 word abstract of your paper, by 30 June 1997, in ONE of thefollowing ways: ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---- * SPIE WEB - Complete the convenient form found at SPIE Web site: http://www.spie.org/forms/BiOS98_submission_form.html * or E-MAIL each abstract separately to: abstracts@spie.org in ASCII text (not encoded) format.
