Final Program 1 General Information SCOPE OF THE CONFERENCE The 12th Joint MMM/Intermag Conference is sponsored jointly by the American Institute of Physics (through Physics Conferences Incorporated) and the Magnetics Society of IEEE. The Conference will be held at the Hyatt Regency Chicago in the heart of Chicago, Illinois, easily accessible from O'Hare and Midway Airports. Members of the international scientific and engineering communities interested in recent developments in funda- mental and applied magnetism are invited to attend the Conference and con- tribute to its technical sessions. Sessions will include invited and contributed papers in oral and poster sessions, invited symposia, a plenary session, and two evening sessions, one of which will be in a tutorial format. The Confer- ence provides an outstanding opportunity for participants to meet their col- leagues and discuss the latest advances in magnetism. Please note that all of the conference details, including web links for registration and hotel reser- vations, are available at the conference website: http://www.magnetism.org CHICAGO Few cities in the world can match the character and culture of Chicago. Here you can find world-class dining, museums and entertainment. Chicago is the largest and most visited city in the Midwest of the United States. The Chicago Convention & Tourism Bureau is dedicated to helping you enjoy your stay in Chicago. On its web site, http://www.choosechicago.com you can experience the city like a local by obtaining the latest information on Chicago attractions such as the Navy Pier and Millennium Park, as well as the numerous outstanding museums and galleries.

Received: 2018.05.11; Accepted: 2018.11.30; Published: 2019.01.01 Abstract Heat shock protein 90 is an ATP-dependent molecular chaperone important for folding, maturation and clearance of aberrantly expressed proteins and is abundantly expressed (1-2% of all proteins) in the cytosol of all normal cells. In some tumour cells, however, strong expression of HSP90 is also observed on the cell membrane and in the extracellular matrix and the affinity of tumoural HSP90 for ATP domain inhibitors was reported to increase over 100-fold compared to that of HSP90 in normal cells. Here, we explore [11C]NMS-E973 as a PET tracer for in vivo visualisation of HSP90 and as a potential tool for in vivo quantification of occupancy of HSP90 inhibitors.

With the start of the 2013-2014 academic year, the KU Leuven community gained thousands of new students and staff as a result of the integration of the various academic degree programmes of the university colleges within the KU Leuven Association. This is the culmination of a process ten years in the making and is unquestionably the most substantial institutional development of the last 40 years. The Flemish higher education landscape has changed significantly, and KU Leuven has become a multi-campus university. It is still too early to know with certainty how this institutional operation will influence daily life at the university colleges and at the university. But that it will is certain. The simple fact that the integrated university college degree programmes are now research-based will lead to new projects, contacts, administrative needs, curricula, intellectual orientation and so forth.
