Welcome to
The 14th International Membrane Research Forum
March 15, 2013
We would like to welcome everybody who is participating in this membrane researchforum, particularly the speakers from abroad. It is our great pleasure to report that many
scientists expressed considerable interest in this forum, and volunteerd to present theirresearch results.
This year’s forum is for commemorating the 41st Anniversary of the Singer and Nicolson’s
fluid mosaic model, which formed our basic concept for virtually all biological membranes
on Earth (we were to commemorate the 40th anniversary last year, but due to the time
constraint we had, we could not make it). Such universality is comparable with that of the
double-helical structure of DNA, although this is not recognized as widely as it should be.
This suggests that the fundamental mechanisms for the various functions of biologicalmembranes could essentially be understood by a set of simple principles based on theirdynamic structures. Therefore, we hope to understand organizing principles of biologicalmembranes and the general cellular strategies utilizing them for various membrane
functions, which could be called the “membrane mechanisms”.
Since the publication of this model, the structure and dynamics of cellular membranes,
and their integration into membrane functions (membrane mechanisms) fascinated cellbiologists, chemists, and physicists, and the membrane research has expanded greatly.
With this forum, we are trying to provide a common platform for scientists from different
research backgrounds who are working on various aspects of biological membranes. The
aim is "synthesis" rather than specialization. We believe that the time is ripe for
combining our forces together to elucidate meso-scale interactions in/on the membrane.
This year’s forum again features meso-scale dynamic molecular complexes and domains
and their functions in cellular membranes. Here, the meso-scale roughly represents thespace scale between 3 and 300 nm, where key molecular complexes and interactions takeplace in cellular membranes. The meso-scale structures, including protein complexes andmembrane domains, are considered important for membrane functions, such as signaltransduction and membrane transport
We hope that you will enjoy this meeting and mingle with other scientists having very
different backgrounds.
