President of Scientific Committee
Biochemistry for a better world
The International Union of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology (IUBMB)
will host the 23rd IUBMB Congress in Brazil, in the city of Foz do Iguaçu, August
24th to 28th, 2015, as a joint event with the 44th Annual Meeting of the
Brazilian Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology (SBBq). The IUBMB
Congress completes the triad of worldwide events taking place in Brazil over
the next years, including the Soccer World Cup in 2014 and The Olympic
Games in 2016.
Knowledge regarding the biochemical aspects of life has increased
dramatically over the years. We have achieved a wide range of abilities, from
characterizing single molecules, to studying complex interactions between
biological components, and we are heading towards computational
simulations of complete biological systems. This knowledge shed a light on the
past of our planet and will also contribute toward enlightening its future.
The IUBMB Congress is an opportunity to strengthen our networks,
advance our Science, and make a better world.
Scientific Program and Organization
The scientific program will be composed of plenary lectures, symposia
and poster sessions, prepared by the Scientific Committee. The SBBq
secretariat, composed of 3 fulltime secretaries and 6 directors will work
together with the Organizing Committee in order to prepare the congress.

About IUBMB
The International Union of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology (IUBMB)
The International Union of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology - founded in
1955 - unites biochemists and molecular biologists in 77 countries that belong
to the Union as an Adhering Body or Associate Adhering Body which is
represented as a biochemical society, a national research council or an
academy of sciences. The Union is devoted to promoting research and
education in biochemistry and molecular biology throughout the world and
gives particular attention to areas where the subject is still in its early
development. It achieves this in several ways.
Every three years the Union sponsors an International Congress of
Biochemistry and Molecular Biology. Co-sponsorship of these Congresses by
Regional Organizations of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology is an increasing
trend. These Congresses are major international meetings where current
research in all fields of biochemistry and molecular biology is considered.
Thousands of individual research projects are presented in poster sessions and
leading investigators from many nations survey their fields and describe their
own research in symposia and plenary lectures. Since 1992 IUBMB has also
sponsored IUBMB Conferences and Special Meetings, held in the years between
the International Congresses.
The IUBMB provides financial support for international symposia on
biochemical and molecular biological research topics of current interest. It
organizes or sponsors workshops, symposia and training sessions on
biochemical and molecular biological education and provides free textbooks
and journals to training institutions in developing nations. The Union also
funds short-term fellowships for younger biochemists and molecular biologists
to travel to other institutions to perform research not possible in their own
laboratories, and provides Travel Fellowships for young scientists to attend its
Congresses. Sponsorship of meetings and fellowships is restricted to regions
that belong to the IUBMB.
As well as reaching biochemists through its own meetings, the IUBMB works
closely with the four regional organizations that unite the biochemical
societies of Asia and Oceania (Federation of Asian and Oceanian Biochemists
and Molecular Biologists - FAOBMB), Europe (Federation of European
Biochemical Societies - FEBS) the Americas (Pan-American Association for
Biochemistry and Molecular Biology - PABMB) and Africa (Federation of African
Societies of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology - FASBMB). Indeed all four are
linked formally with the IUBMB as Associated Regional Organizations and three
of them receive substantial financial support from the Union. The
International Federation of Clinical Chemistry and Laboratory Medicine, the
International Society for Neurochemistry and the International Organization
for Free Radical Research are also Associated Organizations of IUBMB.
Reaching individual biochemists is also the purpose of another very important
function of the IUBMB, that of publishing news, reviews, information, original
research and nomenclature. Trends in Biochemical Sciences (TiBS) is seen monthly by
over 100,000 readers, keeping them informed of research progress across the broad
field of biochemistry and molecular biology, as well as of news of meetings, people
and biochemical events. Biotechnology and Applied Biochemistry publishes original
research findings and reviews in the expanding domain of the practical applications
of the subject. IUBMB Life expedites the publication of short communications,
identified by their novelty and the need for urgent dissemination. Biochemistry and
Molecular Biology Education is dedicated to publishing articles, reviews and editorials
to assist the teaching of biochemistry and molecular biology to science and medical
students throughout the world. BioEssays, co-sponsored by the IUBMB and seven
other ICSU biological Unions, is the monthly current-awareness journal that displays
progress across the fields of molecular, cellular and developmental biology.
BioFactors publishes reviews and original communications on growth factors and
regulatory substances. Molecular Aspects of Medicine publishes reviews that aim to
link clinicians and biomedical scientists.
The IUBMB is one of 26 Scientific Unions affiliated with the International Council of
Science (ICSU), an umbrella organization for scientists worldwide. ICSU was created
in 1931 to encourage international scientific activity, to affirm the rights of scientists
without regard to race, religion, political philosophy, ethnic origin, sex or language,
to join in international scientific affairs for the benefit of mankind. The IUBMB has
been a member of ICSU since 1955 (until 1991 as IUB). The IUBMB representative
serves as a member of the General Assembly of ICSU and ex-officio takes part in the
work of the ICSU working group of the Biological Sciences. Through ICSU the IUBMB
has been able to generate broad and often highly productive contacts with other
international bodies, including some joint programs.

SBBq was founded in 1967 by research leaders in Brazilian Biochemistry. The initial
idea was to organize meetings to exchange experiences and report the results of
their work.
These meetings initially included conferences and debates about scientific subjects
and also political and organizational issues. In 1970, SBBq Executive Committee
members decided to hold their future meetings in the city of Caxambu. This town is
approximately equidistant from Belo Horizonte, São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro the
centers that at the time were responsible for 90% of Brazilian Scientific production.
The first Meeting held in Caxambu in 1972 was attended by few researchers and
graduate students. Plenary lectures were organized on site and the students gave
oral presentations of their thesis work. In 1975 the event’s name changed to ‘The
Brazilian Biochemistry Society Annual Meeting’. Since then, these conferences grew
in number and quality, in a proportion never imagined by the Society’s founding
partners.
In 1978, upon recommendation of the Director’s Council and ratification by the
General Assembly of the XVII Annual Meeting, the name of SBBq changed to ‘Brazilian
Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology’.
Throughout its 44 years in existence, SBBq has played a decisive role in the growth
and development of Brazilian Biochemistry, proposing plans and actions which
contribute toward national policy formation, educational, technological and
scientific development. SBBq also serves as a contact vehicle and source of qualified
information for the Brazilian society.
SBBq keeps its maintains activities by promoting national and international contacts
with its congeneric societies and an agreement with Society Portuguese of
Biochemistry, Society of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology of Chile, Society of
Biochemistry, Molecular Biology of Uruguay and Biochemical Society (UK).
It is a member of the Brazilian Society for the Advancement of Science (SBPC),
Federation for Societies in Experimental Biology (FESBE) and the International Union
of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology (IUBMB).
Currently, SBBq has 800 active Full Members, including many of Brazil´s most
important scientists from different segments of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology.
The Society also includes 250 Associate Members, who are mostly graduate students.
The Meetings
The Annual SBBq Meeting is currently one of the most traditional events of the
Brazilian Scientific Community. For three decades, these meetings have provided the
scenario and forum for debates concerning the advancement of fundamental
knowledge of Biochemical phenomena, its application toward social benefit and
confluence of this knowledge with other segments of the biological and physicalchemical sciences.
The Meetings have two central targets: first, to offer an opportunity to present and
discuss the predominant research themes and their future perspectives for Brazilian
Biochemists, and second, to focus on a few central areas of interest. This strategy
has been successful and achieves the objective of maintaining the Brazilian
scientists’ production visible. At the same time, a profound and extended analysis of
some frontier subjects, that change every year, occurs.One feature that deserves
special attention is that the scientific program for every meeting is entirely the
result of the initiative of members, coordinated by the scientific committee.
Scientific Program
The program will be composed by Keynote Lectures (KL), Symposia (SP),
Courses (CO), Discussion Groups (DG) and Poster Session (PS).
Confirmed keynote lectures will be presented by
Johann Deisenhofer, University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center, USA, a
German biochemist who, along with Hartmut Michel and Robert Huber, received the
Nobel Prize for Chemistry in 1988 for the determination of the first crystal structure
of an integral membrane protein, a membrane-bound complex of proteins and cofactors that are essential for photosynthesis.
Kurt Wüthrich, The Scripps Research Institute, USA, a Swiss chemist/biophysicist and
Nobel Chemistry laureate, developed Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) methods for
studying biological macromolecules.
Stanley B. Prusiner is an American neurologist and biochemist. Currently the
director of the Institute for Neurodegenerative Diseases at University of California,
San Francisco (UCSF). Prusiner discovered prions, a class of infectious selfreproducing pathogens primarily or solely composed of protein. He received the
Albert Lasker Award for Basic Medical Research in 1994 and the Nobel Prize in
Physiology or Medicine in 1997 for his prion research.
Tom Steitz, Howard Hughes Medical Institue, USA - Steitz was awarded the 2009
Nobel Prize in Chemistry along with Venkatraman Ramakrishnan and Ada Yonath for
studies of the structure and function of the ribosome. Steitz also won the Gairdner
International Award in 2007 for his studies on the structure and function of the
ribosome which showed that the peptidyl transferase was an RNA catalyzed reaction,
and for revealing the mechanism of inhibition of this function by antibiotics.
Martin Chalfie, Columbia University, USA - Dr. Chalfie shared the 2008 Nobel Prize in
Chemistry with Osamu Shimomura and Roger Y. Tsien for the discovery and
development of the green fluorescent protein, GFP.

The congress will be held at the Rafain Palace Hotel and Convention Center
(http://www.rafainpalace.com.br/v2/home_ing/index.php) which has 43 meeting
rooms in 18,015 m2. This convention center holds the Annual SBBq Meeting, with
approximately 2,500 participants annually. Lunch will be offered on site to all
congress participants and a transport network connecting the main hotels to the
convention center will be available. The hotel network in Foz do Iguaçu is modern
and has more than 20,000 beds.
Foz do Iguaçu, Brazil
The city of Foz do Iguaçu (Brazil) is known for its natural wonders
including the famous Iguaçu Falls in the Iguaçu National Park, a Unesco Worlds
Heritage Site. Just as a comparison, Iguaçu Falls has a water flow three times
higher than the famous US/Canadian Niagara Falls. Additionally, the Iguaçu
Falls are composed of about 275 falls of diverse sizes. A footbridge takes the
visitors for a close view of the tallest one, The Devil’s Throat, which is 97 m
high. Boat and helicopter rides are also available. Additionally, a visit to the
Iguaçu National Park may include ecological trails and bus and bike tours, in
which the visitor can see local animals and plants.
The city of Foz do Iguaçu is easily reached in approximately 1 hour flights
from the International Airports of São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro, the main
Brazilian hubs with connections to the main cities in the World. Additionally,
the location of the city of Foz do Iguaçu, near the Brazil-Argentina border and
close to Chile and Uruguay, favors the integration with other Latin American
countries.
