  • GA2015 2Nd Announement.Pdf
    We are delighted to invite you to the 63rd International Congress and Annual Meeting of the Society for Medicinal Plant and Natural Product Research (GA). The conference covers natural product research from phytochemical studies to phytotherapeutic applications. The aim of the congress is to serve as a forum for discussions on trends, and the latest results, and to exchange ideas relating to phytochemical analysis, ethnopharmacology and phytopharmacology. The scientific program will include plenary lectures by invited speakers, and keynote talks on recent topics of natural product research, as well as contributed lectures and poster presentations. Parallel sessions will allow an appreciable number of participants to present results in oral talks. The poster sessions at central time frames within the congress will also provide an opportunity for scientific discussions. The conference will be accompanied by two workshops, one providing a forum for young researhers and the other for in-depth insight of regulatory affairs of medicinal plant products. Budapest, a European metropolis with its vibrant cultural life, is the academic center of the country. As a participant of the GA Conference, you will have the opportunity to become acquainted with the monuments of the historical past of the city and discover its present with spas, restaurants and contemporary museums. The selected venue of the event, the Budapest Congress Center, is a perfect setting for the organization of an enjoyable and fruitful scientific meeting. On the last day of the Conference, participants can choose from two alternative excursions, all of which offer unforgettable experiences for participants and accompanying persons. The Monastery at Pannonhalma, an ancient historic monument, a UNESCO world heritage site, is one of the cradles of medicinal plant cultivation in Hungary.

Nemzetközi Szimpóziuma 8th International Symposium of Hungarian Researchers on Computational Intelligence and Informatics Biomedical Engineering Education and Research in Hungary Zoltán Benyó Department of Control Engineering and Information Technology, Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Informatics, Budapest University of Technology and Economics Magyar tudósok krt. 2, H-1117 Budapest, Hungary [email protected] Abstract: Biomedical Engineering is a relatively new interdisciplinary science. This paper presents the biomedical engineering activity, which is carried out at Budapest University of Technology and Economics and its partner institutes. In the first part the main goals and the curriculum of the Biomedical Engineering Education Program (BMEEP) is presented. The second part of the paper summarizes the most important biomedical engineering researches carried out mostly in the Biomedical Engineering Laboratory of our university. Keywords: education, biomedical systems, physiological models, image analysis, signal processing, detection algorithms 1 Introduction Biomedical engineering education in Hungary started in 1995, after a comprehensive investigation of similar European programs [1], as a joint program of three universities: Budapest University of Technology and Economics, Semmelweis University of Medicine, and University of Veterinary Sciences. It is the first high-level comprehensive education form in Hungary, that grants an MSc Biomedical Engineer diploma. Over 150 students have already completed their

    PhD Scientific Meeting 2016 | Abstract book Clinical Medicine I A NOVEL CELLULAR MODEL FOR FUNCTIONAL STUDIES OF pH REGULATION AND ELECTROLITE TRANSPORT MECHANISMS IN AMELOGENESIS Rácz, Róbert Róbert Rácz, Erzsébet Bori, Gábor Varga Department of Oral Biology, Semmelweis University, Budapest, Hungary Introduction During amelogenesis, the formation of hydroxylapatite crystals liberates a large number of protons that requires buffering, presumably by secretion of bicarbonate. No functional data exist for mineral ion transport by ameloblasts. Therefore, we developed a novel cellular model to investigate these mechanisms, using the HAT-7 rat ameloblast cell line. Aim Our aims were to provide functional evidence for the role of several key transporters in pH regulation in HAT-7 cells and to test whether cells achieve transepithelial bicarbonate transport in our model. We investigated which signaling pathway plays a role in the regulation of this mechanism and also whether fluoride exposure can disturb this process. Methods To gain monolayers, HAT-7 cells were seeded on Transwell permeable filters and cultured in differentiation medium for 4 days. We monitored transepithelial resistance as an indicator of tight junction formation and polarization. We evaluated intracellular pH changes by microfluorometry using BCECF fluorescent indicator. The activity of transporters was tested by withdrawal of various ions from outer solutions, and by using specific inhibitors and modulating agents. Results We detected sodium/proton-exchanger, anion-exchanger and sodium/potassium/chloride- cotransporter activity at the basolateral side of HAT-7 cells. Measurements of transepithelial bicarbonate transport showed a significant increase in response to Ca2+- and cAMP-mobilizing stimuli (ATP and forskolin). We could not detect significant alteration in bicarbonate secretion upon acute fluoride exposure in this setting, although 1 mM fluoride induced substantial cell death when applied for at least 24h.

  • Higher Education 2010/2011
    Hungarian Higher Education 2010/2011 Hungarian Rectors’ Conference Dear Reader, Although I know I should be modest, I take pride presenting this booklet to you. I am proud to submit to you a short description of the Hungarian higher Bevezető education which can look back to a centuries-old Introduction history, but at the same time I am aware that this thin booklet can only give you a very sketchy account of the system of Hungarian universities and colleges. On the following pages you will find not only the 69 higher education institutions (HEIs) located in Hungary but the names of 4 more Hungarian HEIs beyond our frontiers. The list gives you the picture of a diversified system of HEIs: it consists of state-owned universities and colleges, HEIs owned by religious denominations, foundations or even private organisations. The history of each HEI might also be of interest, some of them are several centuries old, and some others are new. Like in most other countries, in Hungary, too there are a few small HEIs that meet highly specific needs and large universities and colleges with thousands of students and hundreds of staff. Each HEI has its own special important function in the complex system of the Hungarian higher education. Another characteristic that all HEIs share in common is that they have a double function; on the one hand they are in charge of training students in highly special fields, on the other hand they are the centres of knowledge and culture, and the workshops of research. Besides preserving national traditions, Hungarian HEIs are part of the European system of higher education, and develop and maintain relations with a large number of HEIs all over the world.
