- catalog abstract "These volumes record the presentations made at the VIII International Symposium held at Indiana University, Bloomington, USA from May 22 - May 27, 1994. This was a continuation of meetings held every three years with the idea of bringing clinicians and basic scientists together, which we hope results in cross-fertilization of ideas. Some of the papers presented in this volume represent oral contributions and others are from posters, but we emphasize that both are considered of equal merit. As is obvious from a perusal of the titles of the papers there has been a shift in the focus of these meeting, which reflects a general shift in the area of purine and pyrimidine metabolism. The emphasis has definitely shifted to gene structure and molecular genetics, with the beginnings we hope of gene therapy as an important branch of this area of science. Although many of the inherited diseases discussed in this text can treated with drugs the major thrust in the future will be in gene therapy, where the gene (or cDNA) will be used to treat the patient with enzyme deficiency, particularly if the patient is young. As can be seen from the list of authors there is a remarkable degree of international cooperation in this area across countries and continents. We thank the many participants who have attended these symposia many times, and we welcome the large group of scientists from Eastern Europe who are attending this meeting for the first time. We would like to acknowledge the financial support from a number of companies, in particular Burroughs Welcome, Gensia, and Amgen, which were the largest contributors. We also wish to thank Dr. M. Lowengrub, Dean of the College of Arts and Sciences for financial support, and hosting the meeting. Among other sponsors, we would like to mention the Indiana University Research and Graduate School. Other contributors included Agouran Pharmaceuticals, Berlex, Biochem Therapeutics, British Bio-tech, Gilead Sciences, Harlan-Sprague, Marion Merrell Dow, Pfizer, Sterling Winthrop and the Upjohn Company. The availability of such funds allowed us to offer 22 full or partial travel grants. We also wish to thank the Monroe County Convention and Visitors Bureau for assistance in organizing trips in the area. Organizing such a symposium involves many people and takes a considerable amount of effect. In particular, the review of abstracts, their organization into symposium topics, and selection of travel award recipients based on the quality of abstracts were formidable tasks. We thank the Abstract Review Committee (Drs. Jeff Davidson, Mitch Turker, Carol Caporelli and Joseph Cory) for doling a wonderful job. The overall planning of the program was organized by Dr. George Weber, with the day-to-day coordination being done by Dr. Milton Taylor and Dr. Amrick Sahota. We owe a debt of thanks to Kevin Knerr from the Indiana University Conference Bureau for his handling day-to-day problems, and the amount of attention he has given to this meeting throughout the conference and its planning stages. We would also like to recognize Ginger Calloway, also from the conference bureau, for her excellent administrative skills. She was responsible for daily administrative matters including mailing lists, letters and faxes and receipt of manuscripts.".
