The following manuscript represents the proceedings of a 1-day symposium held in Santa Fe, NM, on February 22, 1995 in conjunction with a regular meeting of the Radiation Study Section of the Division of Research Grants (DRG), National Institutes of Health (NIH). The purpose of the symposium was to educate Study Section members on various aspects of the heat-shock, or stress, response in mammalian systems and to inform them of the most recent developments in this area. The symposium was organized by Paul Strudler, the Scientific Review Administrator for the Radiation Study Section, and was co-chaired, and this report edited, by Eugene Gerner (University of Arizona, Tucson) and Peter Corry (Beaumont Hospital, Royal Oak, MI). The invited speakers, their affiliations and their general topics were Stuart Calderwood (Dana Farber Cancer Institute, Boston, tolerance and signal transduction), Michael Freeman (Vanderbilt University, Nashville, oxidative stress), Andrei Laszlo (Washington University, St. Louis, chaperones), Gloria Li (Memorial Sloan Kettering, New York, hsp-70), John Subjeck (Roswell Park Cancer Institute, Buffalo, hsp-110) and Lee Weber (University of Nevada, Reno, hsp-27). 97 refs.
