AOTrauma Seminar West is organized by AOTrauma and will be held on Jan 29, 2020 at artotel cologne, Cologne, North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany.  Description: In the field of calcaneal and talar fractures, a lot has happened lately. What do new approaches, implants and strategies bring? Does it make sense to acquire the new techniques? For which patients are they suitable? We will try to answer these questions together with our experts. The second session is about the metatarsus: how to stabilize in dislocation fractures: wires? Screws? Plates? An exciting topic for "everyone" are certainly the MFK5 fractures: What is conservative or do I have to operate everything? How do I operate? How do I treat? Or is everything clear? Additional details will be posted as soon as information is available.

Analysis and Integration of Transcriptome and Proteome Data Course is organized by European Molecular Biology Laboratory (EMBL) and will be held from Feb 02 - 07, 2020 at EMBL Heidelberg, Heidelberg, Baden-Wurttemberg, Germany. Audience: This course is targeted at biologists and biochemists who are (starting to be) involved in both next-generation sequencing and mass spectrometry-based proteomics, but who are not experts in these fields. Course Overview: Systems biology is a still expanding field of research aiming to understand at the molecular level how cells, tissues and organism operate in their biological context. Among the key technologies driving this forward are next-generation sequencing and proteomics, as they provide powerful means to determine global expression levels of genes and proteins. Both fields have matured to a degree that they have now become accessible to researchers in many areas of biology. During this course participants will gain theoretical insight in the structure of sequencing and proteomic data, and will receive training in data analysis using various computational tools. Modules/Resources: • Principles of mRNA quantification • Principles of protein identification and quantification • Principles and application of bioinformatic tools for mining of transcriptome and proteome data • Data integration by Cytoscape Learning Outcomes: The aim of this practical course is to provide insight in techniques that are frequently used for transcriptome and proteome analysis, and to provide hands-on experience turning primary data into information that can be used for further biological interpretation. To achieve these goals, participants will gain insight in the basic principles of gene expression analysis (RNAseq data quantification and differential expression analysis), protein identification and quantification, and they will be trained in the use of software tools to analyse sequencing and proteomic data (SearchGUI, PeptideShaker, MaxQuant). In addition, the course will provide insight in the complementarity of transcriptome and proteome data by their integrative analysis via Cytoscape. Additional details will be posted as soon as information is available. 

Musculoskeletal MRI Joints (finger to toe) is organized by Erasmus Course on Magnetic Resonance Imaging (EMRI) and will be held from Feb 03 - 07, 2020 at Essen, North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany. Additional details will be posted as soon as they are available.

EMBL Conference: Expanding the Druggable Proteome with Chemical Biology is organized by European Molecular Biology Laboratory (EMBL) and will be held from Feb 05 - 07, 2020 at EMBL Advance Training Centre, Heidelberg, Baden-Wurttemberg, Germany. Conference Overview: Despite the exciting advances in human genetics over the past decade, the fraction of the human proteome targeted by small molecules remains relatively small compared to the total number of genes linked to a disease phenotype by Mendelian inheritance or genome-wide association studies. Chemical biology is a scientific discipline that promises to apply the latest chemical approaches to interrogate complex biological systems and is, consequently, at the very heart of modern pharmacology. This conference will explore how recent advances in chemical biology are helping to expand the druggable proteome and enhance our understanding of disease biology with three major themes:  • illuminating the druggable genome • chemical interrogation of the druggable proteome • new engineering approaches for breaking the druggability barrier Co-organised with industry partners of the EMBL Corporate Partnership Programme, emphasis has been put on bringing together academic and industrial scientists with interests in chemical biology, chemogenomic libraries, pharmacology, medicinal chemistry and bioinformatics who have the curiosity and courage to challenge existing thinking and explore new ways of expanding the druggable proteome for better medicines. Additional details will be posted as soon as information is available.
