DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The third biannual Gordon Research Conference on Vitamin B12 and Corphins will be held July 1-6, 2007, at the University of New England in Biddeford, Maine. This conference is a multidisciplinary meeting that alternates between a European site (Oxford in 2005) and the Maine site in the United States, reflecting the sizeable communities in the field of vitamin B12 on both continents. The Chair of the 2006 meeting is Wilfred van der Donk, Lycan Professor of Chemistry and Biochemistry at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, with the vice-Chair being Bernhard Kraeutler from the Leopold-Franzens Universities Innsbruck, Austria. The aims for the 2007 meeting are: 1) To feature a group of scientists from widely different fields including epidemiology, genetics, biochemistry, microbiology, chemistry, and physics that all work at the forefront of research on vitamin B12. The topics presented will vary from disease models, nutrition, and B12 uptake and transport to mechanisms of enzyme catalysis, diagnostics, and biosynthesis. 2) To organize an exciting and stimulating conference in which the members of the different communities actively participate, discuss the latest developments and most importantly, share insights obtained from diverse viewpoints and backgrounds. The increased multidisciplinary interactions are also intended to promote collaborations. 3) To ensure a continuing influx of new ideas and investigators. To achieve this, the speakers list has been made up almost entirely of speakers that have not spoken before and several junior scientists, in particular postdocs, have been identified that will present on their work.

描述（由申请人提供）： 维生素B12和Corphins的第三次双年度戈登研究会议将于7月举行 1-6，2007，在缅因州比德福德的新英格兰大学。这次会议是一次多学科会议，在欧洲遗址（2005年的牛津）和美国的缅因州遗址之间交替，反映了两个大洲维生素B12领域的较大社区。 2006年会议的主席是伊利诺伊大学Urbana-Champaign大学的化学和生物化学教授Wilfred Van der Donk，副主席是来自奥地利Innsbruck的Leopold-Franzens大学的Bernhard Kraeutler。 2007年会议的目的是：1）以广泛不同领域的一组科学家为特色，包括流行病学，遗传学，生物化学，微生物学，化学和物理学，它们都在维生素B12研究的最前沿。提出的主题将因疾病模型，营养和B12的吸收以及运输而异，到酶催化，诊断和生物合成的机制。 2）组织一个令人兴奋和刺激的会议，在该会议中，不同社区的成员积极参与，讨论最新的发展，最重要的是，分享从各种观点和背景获得的见解。增加的多学科互动也旨在促进合作。 3）确保持续涌入新的想法和研究人员。为了实现这一目标，扬声器列表几乎完全由以前从未说过的演讲者组成，并且已经确定了几位初级科学家，尤其是PostDocs，他们将在其工作中出现。
