Registration for the 2009 International Symposium on Metallomics is now open.

The conference will be held on June 7 - 10, 2009 in Cincinnati, OH USA and hopes to build on the outstanding meeting held in Nagoya, Japan in 2007. ISM '09 will bring together scientists from the biological, chemical, environmental, clinical and measurement sciences to effect a greater understanding of the role of metals and metal compounds in many biological, chemical, environmental and clinical systems.

All manuscripts resulting from the presentations at this conference are invited to be considered for publication in a ISM '09 themed issue in Metallomics, following the conference. All papers must follow the usual peer-review process.

Metallomics: Integrated biometal science is now accepting primary articles, communications and reviews covering the research fields related to metals in biological, clinical and environmental systems.
