时间：2016 年5 月28 日（星期六）晚上7:00 起
地点：华盛顿大学医学院K-450 会议室（1959 NE Pacific Street, Seattle, WA 98195）
内容：学术讲座

1. 癌症治疗的最新进展和发展方向
Overview of Recent Progresses and Future Directions in Cancer Therapy
高泽人 博士 (Zeren Gao, Ph.D., SystImmune, Inc.)

癌症在所有死亡因素中排名第二，美国2013年有超过58万人死于癌症，占所有死亡人数的22%。美国政府和企业花费了大量的资金用于癌症的基础研究和新药开发。新的治疗方法，比如靶向治疗，免疫治疗等等给癌症病人带来了希望。这次报告的重点是抗体在癌症治疗方面的最新进展，包括双特异性抗体，抗体偶联药物等等，以及转化医学在癌症新药开发方面的应用。

2. 癌症治疗新进展：免疫检查点抑制剂疗法
Checkpoint Inhibitors in Cancer Treatment
廖新生 博士 (Xinsheng Michael Liao, M.D., Ph.D., Partner Oncology, Inc.)

癌症的产生被认为是免疫耐受，因此免疫疗法的主要机制就是打破免疫耐受。黑素瘤是用于免疫治疗的模型系统，过去对于黑素瘤的主要免疫疗法包括干扰素和高剂量白细胞介素。干扰素和白细胞介素的作用机制是加强免疫力，但这种免疫是非特异性的，并不能打破免疫耐受。另外，干扰素有许多副作用，而高剂量白细胞介素比干扰素毒性更大。为了克服这些传统免疫疗法的缺点，最近提出了免疫检查点抑制剂新疗法。这些抑制剂能够打破免疫耐受，不但可以在门诊使用，而且副作用大大减轻，治疗效果明显提高，让大多数患者能够过上正常的生活，给癌症治疗带来了新的希望。

The discussion leaders are at different stages of their career from junior faculty to well established professors. All of them had made very successful transitions from postdocs to faculty and they are extremely successful as PIs.

Career path is always case by case. However, there are many common features on finding a faculty position and on being a well funded PI. The invited discussion leaders will share their successful career stories and experience. They will also give general advice and suggestions. This panel discussion will provide a great chance for postdocs and graduate students to interact with successful PIs and to ask any questions they may have on their career development so they can be more prepared for their future career. The discussion will be especially helpful for those postdocs or PhD students who are planning to go on academic career pathway. Junior faculty will also find the discussion beneficial by hearing the successful stories and suggestions from well established professors.
