Objective
The rapid growth in importance of trace elements in biology and medicine needs the discussion of the recent developments in this field. The aim of this Euroconference is to emphasize the influence of trace elements on human health and to encourage interdisciplinary research and exchange of information through an European network of scientists whose common interest is a fuller understanding of the role and impact of trace elements. To achieve this goal, the program will include oral (plenary and keynote lectures) and poster presentations - following by discussions.
Plenary lectures, oral presentations and posters will be presented in a 4 days symposium (07-10/10/1999) during six Workshops: 1. Human essential trace elements, 2. Trace elements: intake, nutrition, 3. Metabolism and biological effects, 4. Trace elements: health effect, 5. Trace elements: environment, pollution, 6. Trace elements: methods of detection. The symposium will be closed by a Round Table conducted by key speakers of each workshop and a general conclusion will be drawn taking into account the advices and the suggestions of all the participants.
This conference will present a high degree of multidisciplinarity. Many research domains will be involved: medicine, biochemistry, neurochemistry, toxicology, physics, nutritional and environmental sciences. The symposium will give to clinicians and scientists who are working in these fields, a great opportunity of finding the appropriate environment for mutual understanding and fruitful discussions.
