SCIENCE AND RESEARCH

The Birth and Influence of Massive Stars
A meeting of the topmost European astronomers was held September 14 to 17 at the headquarters of the Czech Academy of Sciences. The purpose of the conference was to discuss the birth and influence of massive stars. Massive stars, which are ten to one hundred and fifty times more massive than the Sun, can be more than a million times more luminous than our Sun. But, while the Sun will exist for about 10 billion years, massive stars expire after only a few million years and then end their existence with a vast supernova explosion. This interim meeting of Work Package 2 of the CONSTELLATION network reviewed the aspects of massive star formation and showcased the progress made over the past more than two years of cooperation.

EMBO Workshop on Mitochondria, Apoptosis and Cancer
The European Molecular Biology Organization orga­ni­zed a meeting in Prague October 1–3. At this symposium several topics were discussed: biology and genetics of mitochondria in relation to cancer; the role of mitochondria-targeting compounds in cancer suppression (including BH3 mimetics); mitochondria as transmitters of death receptor-induced apoptosis; regulation of apoptosis and the interplay of mitochondria with other organelles p53 and mitochondria in apoptosis regulation; and the role of mitochondria in targeting cancer stem cells.
