报告内容摘要:

Nanomedicine is a rapidly emerging interdisciplinary area with many challenges, especially in the area of scientific communication. Effective verbal and written scientific communication is the basis of any advancement in technology, and it has even more importance for a field, which is being developed internationally.

Nowadays, we are generating knowledge faster than ever before. The information revolution and computers are changing the way scientific information is shared and evaluated. Science publishing is also undergoing dynamic changes from printing to online, and new business models, like open access and hybrid models are on the rise. The essential question is the same for authors and publishers: is it possible to determine the value of research (manuscript or publication) before and after making it public, and if the answer is yes, what are the best, objective methods to do that?

Getting published is crucial for academicians, researchers, and students. Hiring decisions are often made on the basis of publications therefore it is necessary to understand the mechanism, and find the best  publication forum for maximum exposure.

In this talk, the speaker will explain how publishing works today, what is the difference between the fundamental business models, and will summarize major changes in science publications. He will describe the use and limits of citation based metrics and ranking, and explain current scientific methods to determine ranking of journals and magazines. You will learn how to select your target audience, and which tools can be used to evaluate publication activities of journals, individuals, institutions, and countries.  Dr. Balogh will introduce the Nanomedicine NBM journal, its requirements, and procedures, and will compare it to leading nanomedicine journals. A guide how to get published in Nanomedicine NBM will also be presented with a question-and-answer opportunity.

Dr. Balogh received his Ph.D. from the Kossuth L. University in Hungary in Chemical Technology and later was invited to the University of Massachusetts Lowell as a Visiting Professor in 1991. He then worked at the Michigan Molecular Institute, Midland, MI as a senior scientist, and had faculty appointments (Department of Internal Medicine, Department of Biomedical Engineering and Macromolecular Science and Engineering) at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, MI. Before starting his own consulting business, he was the Co-Director of the NanoBiotechnology Center and Director of Nanotechnology Research in the Department of Radiation Medicine at the Roswell Park Cancer Institute, Buffalo, NY, and at the University at Buffalo, SUNY.

He is Owner and Chief Scientific Advisor at the business AA Nanomedicine & Nanotechnology Consultants, North Andover, MA that provides scientific evaluation, feasibility studies, and concept assessments for nanomedicine related research applications, R&D projects, business plans and investments, as well as expert evaluation and technology due diligence for private companies, government agencies (NIH, NSF, DoD, USEPA, Chinese Academy of Sciences, etc.) and private investors in nanomedicine, nanobiotechnology, and nanotechnology since 2000.

Lou is member of the Nanobusiness Alliance, USA, and he serves on numerous USA, European, and International expert committees including the Steering Committee of the American National Standard Institute Nanotechnology Panel and the US Technical Advisory Committee to the International Standard Organization on Nanotechnology (TC-229).

Lou is one of the five Founders of the American Society for Nanomedicine (http://www.amsocnanomed.org).

题目Microparticles: a road to antitumor immunity

报告内容摘要:

    Tumor cells are capable of changing their cytoskeletal structure and resulting in plasma membranes encapsulating cytosolic elements and expelling them or downloading them into the extracellular space. These specialized subcellular vesicles are called microparticles (MPs) and come in different sizes of 100 to 1000 nm in diameter. In line with the cellular components, MPs may contain numerous tumor messenger molecules, enzymes, RNAs and even DNA. This study explored the possibility of translating tumor information into antitumor immunity through the MP pathway.

    Despite the critical role of dendritic cells in antitumor immune responses by cross-presenting tumor antigens to tumor-specific T cells, we found that DCs were vulnerable to take up apoptotic tumor cells but strongly captured tumor cell-derived MPs. As a result, DCs upregulated CD80, CD86 and MHC class II, concomitant with the activation of JNK, ERK and NF-kB, leading to activating tumor specific T cells. Vaccination of murine H22 hepatocarcinoma tumor cell-derived MPs prevented H22 tumor rather than MCA26 colon cancer or B16 melanoma formation in mice in a CD8 T cell dependent manner. Consistently, B16 cell-derived MPs selectively affected B16 melanoma, suggesting that tumor cell-derived MPs are tumor antigen specific. Undoubtedly, tumor cells are the roots of antitumor immune responses, however previous tumor cell-based vaccines only generated limited progress. The present study probably discloses tumor cell-derived MPs as a new generation of vaccine, leading to effective antitumor consequence.
