Upcoming Medical Conferences in Germany

EMBO | EMBL Symposium: The Non-Coding Genome is organized by European Molecular Biology Laboratory (EMBL) and will be held from Oct 16 - 19, 2019 at EMBL Advance Training Centre, Heidelberg, Baden-Wurttemberg, Germany. Conference Description : In the 50 years since RNA was identified as a central component in the flow of genetic information, it has become increasingly clear that RNA performs many additional diverse and interesting functions. Regulatory RNAs are known to play central roles across numerous biological processes required for cell viability and function. Moreover, prokaryotic and eukaryotic genomes are pervasively transcribed to generate many additional RNAs with unknown functions, raising the question: What else does RNA do? This symposium will explore the diverse, dynamic and multifaceted roles of RNA across a spectrum of cellular processes. It will provide an interdisciplinary discussion of the roles of non-coding RNAs in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes, with the aim of enhancing our understanding of gene regulation and function. Session Topics : • Non-coding RNAs in prokaryotes. • miRNAs: biogenesis, function and mechanisms. • siRNAs and piRNAs. • Transcriptional silencing and dosage compensation. • Gene silencing in plants. • Long non-coding RNAs.

DKOU 2019 - German Congress for Orthopedics and Traumatology is organized by Intercongress GmbH and will be held from Oct 22 - 25, 2019 at Messe Berlin, Berlin, Germany. The DKOU is an event for medical professionals - private persons and minors have no access to the congress grounds. Description: The main topics for the DKOU 2019 will be diagnostics and imaging techniques, arthrosis, diseases and injuries of the spine, pain, arthroplasty, joint injuries, complications and comorbidities, old age traumatology and orthopedics as well as trauma management - in our opinion a wide range of supply-relevant, burning topics from our field of expertise. Apart from this congress, it is a common concern for us to network the specializations and care sectors of orthopedics and trauma surgery even more closely. Is patient-oriented cross-sectoral integrated care feasible in the current structures or where do we have to rethink? These are the basic values ​​of our medical practice. Despite medical care at an internationally recognized high level, we are in daily conflict with increasing economic pressure, political mismanagement and a lack of staff. The congress motto should a leitmotif for a knowledge- and value-based action in O and U be. In recent years, the DKOU has become the largest European congress in our field. It is our concern to offer the generalists as well as the specialists, the further education assistants as well as the experienced experts from all areas of our subject an attractive offer for "knowledge multiplication" and orientation and at the same time to offer sufficient space for the value discussion. Main Topics: • Diagnostics and Imaging • Spine and Pain • Osteoarthritis • Patient Management and Innovations • Arthroplasty • Joint Injury • Orthogeriatrics • Trauma Management • Complications and Comorbidities General Topics: • Foot Surgery • Arthroscopic Surgery • Rehabilitation • Disaster and Military Surgery • Pediatric Orthopaedics and Traumatology • Conservative Treatment • Polytrauma • Safety Culture in Orthopaedics and Traumatology • Rheumatology • Tumor Surgery • Health Services Research • Varia Basic Research: • Biomaterials and Implants • Biomechanics and Movement Analysis • Fracture Healing and Bone Metabolism • Inflammation and Sepsis • Musculoskeletal Regeneration • Polytrauma and Shock • Joint Pathophysiology • Soft Tissue and Tendon Speakers: Prof. Dr. Carsten Perka, Prof. Dr. Paul Alfred Grutzner, Dr. Thomas Moller Time: 9:00 am - 6:00 pm
