With so many ion channels known, how can you best decide which to focus on for therapeutic purposes? How can you keep abreast of the key pieces of novel research arising? What are the major pharmaceutical companies focussing their time and resources on at present?
As the only event in Europe dedicated to ion channel research for pharmaceutical drug development, Informa Life Sciences' 2nd Annual Ion Channel Targets Conference will set the forum to answer each of these questions. By assembling world leading academics alongside top research groups from industry, you will learn the state of play of ion channel research in 2009. Combining informative presentations with interactive discussion sessions, don't miss out on this opportunity!
Brand new for 2009!
- Special focus on artificial ligand gated channels engineered by the fusion of G protein coupled receptors with a potassium channel
- Understand the mechanisms of inflammatory heat pain
- Consider the molecular and functional properties of mechano-gated ion channels in health and disease
- Hear molecular insights into ATP action at P2X receptors
- Discover recent developments in K-channel drug targeting
Speakers at the 2009 congress include:
- Prof Bernd Nilius, Full Professor of Physiology, KU Leuven, Belgium
- Prof Olaf Pongs, Director Institute for Neural Signal Transduction, University of Hamburg, University Hospital, Germany
- Prof Peter McNaughton, Department of Pharmacology, University of Cambridge, UK

Exhibit at the conference or become a sponsor!
The joint congress will be accompanied by a large exhibition hall. There are a wide range of sponsorship opportunities available. In 2008 speaking positions were quickly sold out and the exhibition space was fully booked. To make an early enquiry about sponsorship and exhibition at the meeting please contact Sukhvir Hayre at sukhvir.hayre@informa.com or visit www.informa-ls.com/targetsandtools for further information.
