ANNOUNCEMENTS
INTERNATIONAL GERONTOLOGY WEEK August 20-26, 1995 Tokyo, Japan Makuhari Prince Hotel Part 1 THE SIXTH CONGRESS of the International Association for Biomedical Gerontology: Pharmacological strategies for aging and age-associated disorders. August 21-23, 1995. Papers will be accepted that are concerned with all aspects of the mechanisms of aging and age-associated diseases. Major attention will be focused on possible interventions by means of pharmaceuticals, chemicals, and nutrients in aging and ageassociated disorders. This part will consist of Symposia by invited speakers as well as free papers. Some speakers for the Symposium will be selected from submitted papers so that an early submission of abstracts is encouraged. The major subjects to be discussed will include mechanisms of aging, anti-aging strategies including antioxidants, neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson's Disease and Alzheimer's Disease, arteriosclerosis--its pathogenesis and prevention, ischemic heart and brain diseases, brain metabolism stimulants, and pharmacotherapy in the elderly.
Part 2 The Fifth International Symposium on Lipofuscin and Ceroid Pigments, Biomarkers for Aging. August 24--26, 1995. The symposium will focus on the particular aspects of the cellular aging process as suggested by the title but will be discussed from various points of view (i.e., morphology, biochemistry, physiology, pathogenesis and its prevention). This symposium will consist primarily of invited lectures as has been done in previous meetings, but will also accept submitted papers primarily as poster presentations. Again, some of the submitted papers will be selected for oral presentation as additional invited speakers. Contact: K. Kitani, M.D., Professor and Director Radioisotope Research Institute, Faculty of Medicine University of Tokyo 7-3-1, Hongo, Bunkyo-ku, Tokyo 113, Japan Telephone: (81) 35802-2937 FAX: (81) 35802-4329 Ili
