Cutting edge technologies can propel a simple finding in basic
science to a concept that can be of immense value to the society.
While applying novel techniques to unravel the mysteries of
biological processes, an offshoot of applied branch emerged. This
field, which is now widely referred to as Translational Research
utilizes basic science findings and translates these findings into
innovative concepts for the benefit of mankind. This branch of
science has evolved into a multidisciplinary juggernaut
encompassing all known fields of science as varied as biomedicine,
environment, law, economics, sociology, etc. With the ever
increasing interest in this branch and the dreams and aspirations
that this field can bring, basic science researchers are now taking
a bold step into this new realm, merging different fields of
knowledge to come up with novel inventions. This book
"Translational research in environmental and occupational stress"
provides and insight into the research that led to discoveries,
inventions and development of novel technologies which will have a
tremendous impact on the future of mankind.

Proceedings of the XIVth International Symposium on Arterial
Chemoreception, held June 24-28, 1999, in Philadelphia,
Pennsylvania. This volume, containing the proceedings of the
fourteenth biannual ISAC meeting presents a new departure from
their traditional focus on arterial chemoreceptors and their
functions, in the expansion to include the study and discussion of
oxygen sensing in other tissues and cells, and the genes involved.
Bringing together scientists from cellular and systemic boundaries
of physiology, working at the interface of cellular and molecular
biology, this book, containing new physiological and biochemical
perspectives.
Since 1959, the International Society of Arterial Chemoreception
(ISAC) has organized in a variety of countries fifteen scientific
meetings devoted to the mechanisms of peripheral arterial
chemoreception and chemoreceptor reflexes. After the meeting held
in Philadelphia with Sukhamay Lahiri as president, ISAC membership
elected Lyon (CNRS, University Claude Bernard, France) as the site
of the xv" ISAC Symposium. The Symposium was effectively held in
Lyon from the 18th to the 22nd of November 2002 and Jean-Marc
Pequignot was its president. The organizers were Jean-Marc
Pequignot and Yvette Dalmaz Lyon (CNRS, University Claude Bernard,
France) and the Scientific Committee was formed by John Carroll
(University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, USA), Constancio
Gonzalez (University of Valladolid, Spain), Prem Kumar (University
of Birmingham, U. K. ), Sukhamay Lahiri (University of
Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, USA), Colin Nurse (McMaster University,
Hamilton, Ontario, Canada), and Nanduri Prabhakar (Case Western
University, Cleveland, Ohio, USA). The Symposium in Lyon intended
to follow the path opened in Philadelphia gathering people working
at the interface of cellular and molecular biology with researchers
in the more classical topics of chemoreception pathways and
reflexes. The aim was to join experts with different perspectives.
Along these lines, some participants are engaged in the exploration
of the intimate mechanisms of oxygen sensing and cellular
responses, with their work centered in a great number of
preparations covering a broad spectrum from bacteria, to
chemoreceptor cells or to central nervous systems neurons.
