Oliver Werz (University of Frankfurt/Tübingen, Germany) 5-Lipoxygenase in health and disease
Leslie J. Crofford (Merck, Montreal, Canada) Prostaglandin E-synthase and arthritis

Part 2: "Targets and Bullets in cardiovascular and respiratory diseases"

Ingrid Fleming (Goethe Universität, Frankfurt, Germany) Epoxyeicosatrienoic acids and vascular function
Lhousseine Touqui (Pasteur Institute, Paris, France) PLA2 and airways

Session 2. Non-mammalian Lipid Mediators
Ernst Oliw (Uppsala University, Sweden): Fungal fatty acid dioxygenases
Ivo Feussner (Georg-August University, Göttingen, Germany) Oxylipins and host-pathogen interactions in plants

Session 3. Lipid Mediators in Innate Immunity
María Balboa (Spanish Research Council, Valladolid, Spain) Innate immune signaling & phospholipases
Jesper Haeggström (Karolinska Institut, Stockholm, Sweden) Leukotrienes & Innate Immunity

Michel Lagarde (INSERM, Lyon, France) Cellular lipid homeostasis
Pentti Somerharju (Helsinki, Finland) Mass-spectrometry and isotope-labeled exogenous phospholipids provide detailed information on acyl chain remodelin

Session 5. Young Investigator Session
8 junior speakers to be selected from abstract submissions and a travel award of 300 euros is available for 3 young scientists.

In addition, abstracts for posters can be submitted online, and 6 additional oral communications will be selected from the submitted abstracts.
The registration fee is 150 euros (50 euros for students or post-docs).

Feel free to go on our website for on-line information, registration and abstract submission.
