Alzheimer's & Parkinson's Disease Symposium

Monday 15th October 2007 Sydney

 

Professor Dr Michael Przybylski took part at A&PD Symposium in Sydney,being invited as an honour guest to sustain a plenary lecture about the new methods and developments of mass spectrometric proteomics and their importance for Alzheimer's and Parkinson's Disease.
The Symposium was organised under the auspices of the Brain&Mind Research Institute (BMRI) from Australia and it's subject was Novel technologies and strategies to dissect pathomechanisms in Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease
Speaking in the Symposium's opening, Professor Dr Michael Przybylski presented his work and results in his lecture about the

New approaches for immunotherapy and diagnosis of neurodegenerative diseases based on Affinity-Proteomics and High-Resolution FTICR Mass Spectrometry

PROGRAM OF THE SYMPOSIUM

PROGRAMME

 




imvie² conference for imaging in medical and life sciences with

international participation and two nobel laureate committee members

 

1 - bringing together physicans, biologists, and European experts of the different image acquisition and processing systems.

 

2 - presenting the latest developments of these innovations,
- enhancing and discussing the transversal innovative aspects of the photonics applications in the life science
- easing scientific exchanges between attendees (laboratories, SME, large industries)

 

Pharmacology, biomedical analysis, diagnostics, specific surgery, communication between physicans and hospitals... require adequate images, adapted acquisition and transmission systems as well as elaborated related automations and robotics in order to guarantee the best safety and reliability.

A sucessful conference was given in September 2003 in Strasbourg: IMVIE 1 (Imagerie pour les Sciences du Vivant et la Médecine - Strasbourg september 15/17, 2003) to stimulate interdisciplinary activities and to update the participants (with different backgrounds) to see more and to see better in biology,  constructive and reconstructive surgery, tele-surgery, safety and learning (virtual and enhanced reality). This is the second conference, open to the international and assembled a world-class programme.

Committee who created a high-quality programme that will appeal to a wide cross-section of industrial and academic scientists alike. The portfolio of topics that will be covered in 2005 includes new advanced technologies.

Michael Przybylski is awarded the Applied Biosystems Prize for Excellence in Mass Spectrometry

Professor Dr Michael Przybylski is the latest scientist to receive a coveted award sponsored by Applied Biosystems, which recognises individuals who have made a significant contribution to the development and application of mass spectrometry in life sciences. Professor Przybylski was selected by a scientific jury in recognition of his outstanding work in the area of protein analysis.

The jury was appointed by the Board of the German Society of Mass Spectrometry (DGMS) and led by Professor Dr Jasna Peter-Katalinic, who acknowledged his work in her award speech: “In the past two decades, mass spectrometry has undergone important developments and its use in genomics and proteomics has effectively revolutionised life science research. Novel concepts have allowed mass spectrometry to be used in a more dynamic way and Professor Przybylski has contributed to these developments from a very early stage. In the eighties, he used plasma desorption mass spectrometry for the analysis of intact biopolymers and, in more recent years, has been working on Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance (FTICR) mass spectrometry. The results of this work have given extraordinary insight into the biologically active conformations of proteins and their pathophysiological changes, for example, in the course of Alzheimer’s disease;” this work has recently provided the elucidation of a new vaccine lead structure against Alzheimer’s disease (Nature Medicine, 2002).
