Amyloid Fibril Protein Nomenclature - 2002

The Nomenclature Committe met at the IX International Symposium on Amyloidosis in Budapest, July 2001. Members present were Merrill Benson, Maria Saraiva, Jean Sipe and Per Westermark (Chairman). Members absent were Shukuro Araki, Alan S. Cohen, Bias Frangione and Colin Masters. New members of the Committee were Joel Buxbaum, Giampaolo Merlini and Shu-ichi Ikeda who were approved by the participants at the Symposium.
