Proteomics and Aging Workshop

This workshop will feature methods and applications of proteomic technologies that are especially targeted to studies of the biology of aging in vertebrate and invertebrate models. This will include:

Detection of oxidative modifications of proteins in aging
Proteome half-life and turnover estimates
Mitochondrial protein expression in aging
Differences in proteomes of long vs. short lived strains

Organized By:

Peter Rabinovitch
University of Washington

Michael MacCoss
University of Washington

Bryan Fonslow Salk Institute for Biological Studies "Proteomic analysis of aging mechanisms in C. elegans"	Ursula Jakob University of Michigan "OxICAT - A Quantitative Redox Proteomic Approach for Tracking in Vivo Oxidants"
Brad Gibson Buck Institute for Research on Aging	Irwin Kurland Albert Einstein College of Medicine “The acetylome, aging and the metabolic network”
