|Keynote Speaker: Environment |

| |

|Jeremy Rifkin is president of the Foundation on Economic Trends and the author of seventeen bestselling books on the impact of scientific and technological changes on |

|the economy, the workforce, society, and the environment. His books have been translated into more than thirty languages and are used in thousands of universities, |

|corporations and government agencies around the world. His most recent books include The Empathic Civilization, The Hydrogen Economy, The European Dream, The End of |

|Work, The Age of Access, and The Biotech Century. |

|He has been a frequent guest on numerous television programs, including Face the Nation, The Lehrer News Hour, 20/20, Larry King Live, Today, and Good Morning America.|

|The National Journal named Rifkin as one of 150 people in the U.S. that have the most influence in shaping federal government policy.   more ... |

|Keynote Speaker: Health Care |

| |

|Dr. Pappachan E. Kolattukudy Director, Burnett School of Biomedical Sciences |

|This laboratory is involved in several research areas. The genomic and molecular basis of pathogen interaction with their hosts is one area. Mycobacterium |

|tuberculosis, the causative agent of tuberculosis, a major human disease that accounts for than one quarter of all preventable adult deaths, has acquired multidrug |

|resistance making discovery of new drug targets a critical need. The high content of unique complex lipids in the cell walls of this organism helps the pathogen evade |

|the host defenses and antimycobacterial drugs. Synthesis of these lipids offer potential new targets. We are investigating the mycobacterial genes involved in |

|pathogenesis, using gene knock out and other molecular and cell biological approaches. |

| |

|Molecular mechanisms involved in the development of cardiovascular disease is another area. The role of chemokine-induced gene expression changes involved in the |

|development of cardiovascular diseases is being elucidated with transgenic animals and gene-chip technology. A novel cell death-inducing gene was recently discovered |

|in this laboratory. How this gene product is involved in cardiovascular disease is being elucidated using molecular and cell biological approaches. |

| |

|Gene knock-out approaches in mice are being used to elucidate the functions of collapsin response mediator proteins (CRMPs), a class of cytoplasmic proteins possibly |

|involved in axonal guidance.   more ... |
