Happy Chinese Lunar New Year! It is the Year of Rabbit. The New Year’s Day is January 22.

 

In this publication, we offer 1) “What the US nuclear fusion ‘breakthrough’ actually means: For now, result means more to the scientific community than it probably does for those pining for a new commercial electricity alternative” by Nathan Garland; 2) “Jiang Zemin propelled China’s economic rise: He left his successors to deal with the massive inequality that followed” by Edward Cunningham; and 3) “Taiwan backs Chiang Kai-shek’s great grandson in push for peace with Beijing” by Gregory Clark.

 

In the Music Section, we have Chinese Lunar New Year music:

華府國建聯誼會

2022年度學術研討會 圓滿成功

 

【華府國建聯誼會新聞稿】 

 

華府國建聯誼會2022年度學術研討會於12/10(六)下午一點至四點在馬里蘭州蓋城僑教中心舉行,研討會主題是:「更好地了解癌細胞、其治療和檢測的新技術」,參與的會員及朋友們逾六十人,會議在演講與提問、高科技與研討中順利進行。

 

國建聯誼會會長金慶松致歡迎詞,隨後是駐美代表處科技組楊琇雅組長開幕致詞,她肯定華府國建會歷年來建言獻策、貢獻良多,尤其是當天的癌症相關研究,也是台灣政府和學術單位近幾年所積極推動的項目,期許這次研討會能對台灣的產學界拋磚引玉,並建立未來合作、交流、觀摩的平台;她也期許國建會老中青世代傳承,繼續茁壯成長,並與駐美代表處保持密切互動交流。

 

會中邀請到美國六位國際級的癌症研究學者討論美國最新的研究發展和癌症科技。施益民教授以「癌症概覽」開場,強調「超前部署、源頭打擊」的重要;贏得抗癌比賽必須:一、早期發現,二、注重預防,三、有效治療。黃傳翔教授的演講題目是:「如何解開癌症中的分子網絡以獲得更好的治療」(How to untangle molecular networks in cancer for better treatment),強調RTK-RAS-PI3K 信號網絡在癌症中起著重要作用;了解該信號網絡結構對癌症治療具有重要意義。他的研究團隊開發了生物傳感器條形碼以描述 RTK 信號網絡的結構,用於高度多重跟踪活細胞中的信號活動。

 

自創Complete Omics公司的王磬博士演講:「自信地擊中癌症的致命弱點 / Valid-NEO:新抗原的穩健鑑定和定量」(Hitting the Achilles’ heel of cancers with confidence / Valid-NEO: Robust Identification and Quantification  of Neoantigens),針對突變相關新抗原(MANAs)的識別、檢測、量化及技術,從而驗證它們作為個性化癌症治療靶點的潛力。

 

陳昀教授以機械工程的技術講述:「開發有效治療癌症的物理療法」(The era of mechanomedicine: developing physical therapies for effective cancer treatment),使用最先進的 3D 生物打印技術,以改變癌細胞和腫瘤微環境的異常機械特性可以克服抗癌治療中的挑戰。這些抗癌物理療法的初步測試產生了充滿希望的結果,並顯現它們在未來臨床應用中的可行性。

 

主持人王天麗教授展現一張照片,照片中有約翰霍普金斯大學學者們的聚會,黃秉乾教授、黃周汝吉教授及王澤輝教授等九人都在相片中,代表著學者們的聯誼與傳承。王澤輝教授的演講題目是:「評估非侵入性樣本中癌症相關 DNA 甲基化的先進技術」(Advanced Technologies for Assessing Cancer-Associated DNA Methylation in Noninvasive Samples),介紹評估了不少相關的先進技術,包括高度敏感且具有成本效益的癌症表觀遺傳測試,液滴磁流體(Droplet Magnetofluidics 是便攜式、低成本的平台,可用於護理點或近患者測試。

 

整個學術研討會,或中文、或英文、或中英夾雜,任何語言都通,展現了講者以及聽者中英文造詣的強大能力。最後在一一頒獎感謝演講者以及大合照之中,圓滿閉幕。
