Program Objective
This symposium brings together research from laboratories at UT
Southwestern and our outstanding guest speakers. The morning
session is devoted to training for physicians, biomedical
scientists and students who are interested in
13C NMR isotopomer analysis for metabolic
studies. In this session, Dr. Dean Sherry will present
an overview of basic concepts for 13C NMR
isotopomer analysis, Dr. Craig Malloy will discuss extracting
metabolic information from NMR data, Dr. Thomas Szyperski
will present the use of 2D techniques, and Dr. Robert
Lenkinski will discuss the application of 1H
NMR to in vivo metabolic studies.
The afternoon session focuses on 13C NMR and
13C Mass Spectrometry in research on
intermediary metabolism. Dr. Gary Lopaschuk will
discuss the heart with Dr. Denis McGarry presenting
applications to the liver. Following these presentations,
Dr. Christopher Newgard, Dr. Marc Hellerstein, and
Dr. John Jones will present their applications to
intermediary metabolism.
The reception and dinner is designed to provide an opportunity for
interaction between attendees and speakers. After dinner,
Dr. Henri Brunengraber from Case Western Reserve University
will discuss the use of metabolic studies in medical decisions.
