Advances in Biomolecular Medicine Proceedings of the 4th BIBMC (Bandung International Biomolecular Medicine Conference) 2016 and the 2nd ACMM (ASEAN Congress on Medical Biotechnology and Molecular Biosciences), October 4-6, 2016, Bandung, West Java, Indonesia

Advances in Biomolecular Medicine contains the selected papers presented at the 4th BIBMC (Bandung International Biomolecular Medicine Conference) and the 2nd ACMM (ASEAN Congress on Medical Biotechnology and Molecular Biosciences), hosted by the Faculty of Medicine, Padjadjaran University, Bandung, West Java, Indonesia, 4-6 October 2016. In line with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, the theme of the joint scientific meeting is ?Medical innovation & translational research to ensure healthy lives & promote well-being for all at all ages?.

Authors include scientists, academics, practitioners, regulators and other key individuals with expertise and experience relevant to biomolecular medicine, medical biotechnology and molecular biosciences. Topics of the papers cover various aspects of infection, oncology, tuberculosis, genetics, thalassemia, nutrition, cardiovascular, wound healing and endocrinology. This book is essential reading for academics, scientist, practitioners and regulators involved in the area of biomolecular medicine, medical biotechnology and molecular biosciences.

Prof. Robert Hofstra studied biology and received a PhD in the medical faculty at the University of Groningen in 1995 for his studies on the involvement of the RET gene in the cancer syndrome MEN2. He worked in the laboratories of Prof. Romeo (Genoa, Italy) to map and characterize the RET gene. After a short postdoctoral appointment he became head of the DNA diagnostic laboratory in 1996 at the Department of Medical Genetics of the UMC Groningen. In 2000 he became head of the Research and Development group at the Department of Medical Genetics, and in 2005 he was appointed as professor of Human Developmental Genetics. In 2012 he accepted an appointment as chair of the Department of Clinical Genetics at the Erasmus MC. His main research objectives over the years were, and still are, to identify and characterize genes and mutations in genes contributing to inherited diseases and cancer and to understand how these mutant genes contribute to disease development. Most of the work in his group is focused on Hirschsprung Disease and Congenital Short Bowel Syndrome.

Prof. Noriyuki Koibuchi obtained his M.D. and Ph.D, at Gunma University, Japan. He worked as a postdoctoral fellow in the Department of Neurobiology and Behavior at Rockefeller University, and became the Assistant Professor of Physiology at Dokkyo University School of Medicine, Japan. He became a Visiting Assistant Professor of Medicine in the Division of Genetics at Brigham and Women’s Hospital and Harvard Medical School and was appointed to be Professor and Director for the Department of Integrative Physiology at Gunma University Graduate School of Medicine. Dr. Koibuchi’s area of expertise and main interest concern the molecular mechanisms of thyroid hormone action in the central nervous system. He is a member of the Endocrine Society, Society for Neuroscience, and Society of Toxicology.
