We focus on translational research to facilitate interaction between basic health research and clinical practice. This is supported by strong collaborations between OUH, Mental Health Services (MHS) in RSD, institutes under the Faculty of Health Sciences, and the Faculty of Science, SDU. When the New OUH is completed in 2022 it will be connected to the existing SDU by a new Faculty of Health Science. Translational research will enjoy extraordinarily good conditions in the close linkage between the university and the university hos- pital. The interaction between foundation-creating research subjects at SDU and the clinical subjects at OUH provides an example of translational research. New OUH/SDU will create synergies between the university and the university hospital, with the goal of creating even better research, better treatment and better edu- cation. Ultimately, it will also contribute to improving human health, which is the declared visionary goal of the Faculty of Health Sciences and futher the ambion of OUH - The Patient First. The neuroscience at SDU, OUH, MHS and the regional hospitals is gathered together under the newly established BRIDGE initiative (Brain Research-Inter-Disciplinary Guided Excellence). BRIDGE was established with the aim of hosting a network of researchers with clinical expertise and scientific excellence in neuroscience. The center brings together the diverse research interests of members of a core research team who will work under the common umbrella of a neuroscience approach and neurobehavioral research methodologies. The vision of BRIDGE is to improve patient treatment and promote early intervention and the prevention of brain disorders patient by using translational research to harness the power of discovery science. We aim to establish a separate building for BRIDGE at the new university hospital. 8 Neuroscience at the Faculty of Health Sciences, VENUE SDU, OUHGROUP and the RegionNAME: of Southern UCAR Denmark Conference room Department of Nuclear Medicine, OUH INTERACTIONS Interactions between neuroscience researchers are facilitated by: • Communication of research ideas and findings facilitated by regular seminars within BRIDGE • An annual Neurotranslational meeting facilitating new collaborations and giving people from SDU, OUH, and RSD the opportunity to meet and discuss research. • Upcoming joint meetings for senior researchers within neuroscience at SDU, OUH, and RSD. The purpose is to facilitate and strengthen collaborations, to promote research strategies, and to discuss common applications. • Cross-affiliations and cross-appointments between OUH and SDU INFRASTRUCTURE Our neuroscience infrastructure includes: • The Biomedical Laboratory (BL) is the central animal facility for Health Sciences, Natural Sciences and OUH. The department is involved in experimental biomedical research, surgical skills courses, training and research in labora- tory animal science at SDU, OUH and the regional hospitals. This is a world- class facility for animal research including rodents, rabbits, dogs, pigs and sheep and is headed by Associate Professor Peter Bollen together with veterinarian Louise Langhorn. • The IMM Flow Cytometry and Confocal Microscopy Core Facility serve all research groups at SDU and OUH as well as non-university users. • The Department of Human Genetics at OUH provides DNA and RNA sequencing and array screening services. • A small animal PET/CT scanner, which is part of the Danish Molecular Bioimaging Center (DaMBIC) at SDU, is operated in collaboration with the Biomedical Laboratory. • OPEN (Odense Patient data Explorative Network) offers access to databases, biobanks and use of registry data as well as general advice related to research projects. • Department of Nuclear Medicine, OUH, is an interdisciplinary clinical depart- ment serving almost all medical specialties and all departments at OUH and SDU. The department is equipped with gamma cameras, SPECT/CT scanners, and PET/CT scanners as well as its own Cyclotron and radiochemical laborato- ries for production and development of a variety of PET tracers. 9 Neuroscience at the Faculty of Health Sciences, VENUE SDU, OUHGROUP and the RegionNAME: of Southern UCAR Denmark Conference room Department of Nuclear Medicine, OUH NEUROSCIENCE The Department of Clinical Research is the largest department at The Faculty of AT OUH AND THE Health Sciences – but the entire department is physically located at OUH, where DEPARTMENT research and clinical experience are directly related. The Faculty of Health Sciences OF CLINICAL RESEARCH, SDU is thus essential for research at OUH, and the clinical environment is essential for the research. The Department of Clinical Research was established in 1989 and constitutes the university affiliation of the researchers and lecturers working at OUH. The Institute includes 42 research departments and is headed by Professor Kirsten Ohm Kyvik. Strategy OUH and the Department of Clinical Research, SDU, have in collaboration prepared an ambitious research strategy for the period 2016-2020. A major focus in the strategy is involving patients and relatives in research. OUH's motto 'The Patient

  • The ORGAN No. 37 (July 2010)
    The ORGAN No. 37 (July 2010) ►►► Message from the Secretary Dear ISCBFM Members: The purpose of this issue of The Organ is to inform the members regarding the progress and status of the ISCBFM-sponsored meetings: the Gordon Research Conference on “Brain Energy Metabolism and Blood Flow”, being held August 22-27, 2010, in Andover, New Hampshire, USA; and our biennial conference, “The XXVth International Symposium on Cerebral Blood Flow, Metabolism and Function and the Xth InternationalConference on Quantification of Brain Function with PET” to be held in Barcelona, Spain, May 24-28, 2011. With respect to the latter, the conference organizers have provided preliminary programmatic information and tentative key dates. It is time to start thinking about your abstract submissions. Sincerely, Dale A. Pelligrino ISCBFM Secretary ►►► August 22-27, 2010 - Gordon Research Conference on Brain Energy Metabolism & Blood Flow Brain blood flow and metabolism are vital to the normal mammalian nervous system and provide the basis of functional brain imaging. Over the last decade, dramatic progress has been made in molecular biology, biophysics and genetics that impact on the understanding of brain energy metabolism, neural organization, cell signaling and vascular regulation. In addition, new technologies now enable measures to be made of blood flow and metabolism in the brain with high spatial and temporal resolutions. The stage is set for the use of the methodological progress to address fundamental issues related to the organization of brain function, blood flow, and metabolic activity. We strongly believe that progress in this field will drive new discoveries in the experimental and clinical neurosciences and impact on the diagnosis and treatment of stroke and other neurodegenerative disorders.

  • No. 34-December 2007
    The ORGAN No. 34 (Dec. 07) Dear ISCBFM Member, I want to say how honored I am to have been selected to be President of the International Society of Cerebral Blood Flow and Metabolism. I have attended all of the biennial meetings over the past 30 years and feel that the ISCBFM is my scientific home. Over the next two years I will do my best to serve our Society so that it can continue to remain the premier society for the study of the cerebral circulation. Approximately 40 years ago, in 1965, the 1st International Symposium on Cerebral Blood Flow was held in Lund, Sweden. This meeting was organized by David Ingvar and Niels Lassen, two pioneers in the study of the cerebral circulation, and was chaired by Seymour Kety, the father of CBF. There were 42 participants and all of the presentations dealt with either the techniques of regional cerebral blood flow measurement, or the physiology and pharmacology of cerebral blood flow, with a smattering of clinical studies. This should be contrasted with our most recent meeting in Osaka with approximately 1000 participants and 800 presentations encompassing dozens of topics including mechanisms of ischemic cell death, pharmacogenomics and proteiomics, immunity in stem cell therapies, and mapping of neuroreceptors. However, our biennial meetings and our journal still have remained centered around a study of cerebral blood flow, with continued and intense interest in cerebral hemodynamic and metabolic regulation, and pathophysiology of the cerebral circulation. Over the past several years I have heard rumblings about the challenges that our society faces in the future in order to retain members, to attract young investigators, and to remain on the cutting edge scientifically.
