The main goal of the Conference is to provide the multidisciplinary platform for sharing and discussion of scientific results on the ultra-weak luminescence of biological systems in the middle UV range (also called mitogenetic radiation) and related phenomena. Scientific results on ultra-weak chemiluminescence in other spectral ranges and other relevant areas will be also covered. This year we plan to pay special attention to cancer-related studies of ultraweak chemiluminescence. Reports on newly found specifics of malignant cells and physiological liquids in cancer, that are promising for diagnostics with biophotonic methods (particularly by studying ultra-weak luminescence of blood) are greatly appreciated.

Topics:

• Experimental data on ultra-weak luminescence from biological and biochemical systems
  
• Methods of ultra-weak luminescence study: spectral analysis, statistical, and temporal analysis, imaging, detection equipment
  
• Mechanisms of ultra-weak luminescence in model systems
  
• Methods for monitoring and diagnostics of biosystems related to endogenous biophotonics
  
• Specifics of cancer diseases promising for biophotoniс research (particularly by studying ultra-weak luminescence)
  
• Perspectives and new approaches in study of ultra-weak luminescence
  
• Mitogenetic radiation and related phenomena: results, hypotheses, associated information, prospects of verification of unconfirmed results (particularly the claimed tumour marker quenching ultra-weak luminescence of blood)

Three sessions and a round-table are preliminary planned:

• Ultraweak luminescence from biological and biochemical systems
  
• Cancer applications of biophotonics
  
• Mitogenetic radiation and related phenomena
  

Round-table on mitogenetic radiation and cancer quencher (cancer quencher is the first claimed tumour marker in blood that quenched middle UV-chemiluminescence and demonstrated sensitivity and specificity of cancer diagnostics >95% according to clinical reports of 1930–1940s years). The round-table will include scheduled brief reports and round-table discussion.
If you have some useful relevant information, ideas or comments on mitogenetic radiation or cancer quencher to share without an original research, please, do not hesitate to report it on our conference. Critique reports and comments on the subject are welcome no less than reports and comments supporting and developing the concept. Reports from 1 to 30 minutes are acceptable. If you need time different from usual limit of 15 minutes’ talk followed by 5 minutes’ discussion, please, write to naumova@yandex.ru. Preliminary format is online conference.
