This request is for partial support of a workshop that be held in Phoenix, Arizona, during May 17-19, 2015. The workshop will bring together an international group of about 50 isotope geochemists and biomedical researchers to explore the use of high precision isotope analysis, particularly of the heavy metals or metallomics, as disease biomarkers. It is known that disruptions in the metabolism of inorganic elements can be the cause or result from some diseases, such as Alzheimer, osteoporosis, and cancer. The aim of the workshop is to identify medical questions where sophisticated technologies, methodologies, and concepts that have been used in the geological and environmental sciences can be applied to combat disease. Results of the workshop will be published in a report that will serve as the founding document of the new field of isotope metallomic biomarkers and will be available to researchers and the public.

此请求是对 2015 年 5 月 17 日至 19 日在亚利桑那州凤凰城举行的研讨会的部分支持。该研讨会将汇集约 50 名同位素地球化学家和生物医学研究人员的国际小组，探讨高精度同位素分析的使用，特别是重金属或金属组学，作为疾病生物标志物。 众所周知，无机元素代谢的破坏可能是某些疾病的原因或结果，例如阿尔茨海默病、骨质疏松症和癌症。 研讨会的目的是确定医学问题，将地质和环境科学中使用的复杂技术、方法和概念应用于对抗疾病。研讨会的结果将发表在一份报告中，该报告将作为同位素金属生物标记新领域的奠基文件，并将提供给研究人员和公众。
