项目摘要

This application seeks funding for travel costs to allow the attendance of 12 trainees or new investigators from the USA and speakers' fees for 6 invited early career speakers at the 2022 Aspen/Snowmass Perinatal Biology Conference. The longstanding tradition of perinatal research in the US underpins our knowledge of the physiologic basis of fetal development. Cellular and molecular techniques incorporated into investigation in the last 20 years have allowed in depth understanding of the developmental basis of fetal physiology and the pathophysiology of preeclampsia, IUGR, diabetes and premature delivery, conditions associated with perinatal morbidity and mortality. There has been a burgeoning recognition that life in utero is associated with the development of disease in adult life, i.e. the developmental origins of health and adult disease or fetal programming. This has brought renewed interest in perinatal physiology. The perinatal research community is multidisciplinary; bringing together clinicians and basic scientists interested in maternal, fetal, and placental physiology and a substantial cadre of agricultural animal scientists who perform comparative studies of great relevance to human physiology and development. It also has a strong tradition of training young basic and clinician scientists. A vital part of their training experience is the opportunity to present work in venues where they can interact with senior scientists and receive the benefit of mentorship from role models. This meeting will feature presentations from maternal, fetal, placental and agricultural animal researchers around an integrated theme of "Developmental Programming- Putting the Pieces Together'. The meeting will be 3 and 1/2 days with multiple oral plenary sessions including new investigators. Plenary sessions will be accompanied by several interactive workshop sessions addressing key questions and challenges facing young investigators in perinatal biology. New to this 2022 conference are a number of activities, including a mentoring workshop and a "Meet the Expert" breakfast for trainees and junior faculty that are under-represented in perinatal biology. Two poster discussion sessions are scheduled, and posters will be displayed for the entire meeting to allow time for in-depth discussion of work. Prizes will be awarded for the best poster presentations by trainees or new investigators. Trainees and new investigators will be selected based on review of submitted first author abstracts by the Scientific Advisory Committee for award of travel funds. There has always been a high proportion (over 50% at our last meeting) of women attendees at previous meetings and women speakers and session chairs at this meeting are well represented. Our URM representation is around 15%, and we will continue efforts to improve this number, especially with the designation of a minimum of 33% of the requested budget used for travel by URM young investigators. Our selected venue is compliant with the Americans with Disabilities Act and provides childcare and numerous family activities to facilitate attendance by all individuals.

该申请寻求旅费资助，以便 12 名受训人员或新调查员能够参加美国和 2022 年阿斯本/斯诺马斯围产期生物学 6 名受邀早期职业演讲者的演讲费用会议。美国围产期研究的悠久传统巩固了我们对围产期研究的了解。胎儿发育的生理基础。细胞和分子技术纳入研究过去 20 年来，人们对胎儿生理学的发育基础和胎儿的发育基础有了深入的了解。先兆子痫、IUGR、糖尿病和早产、围产期相关疾病的病理生理学发病率和死亡率。人们日益认识到子宫内的生命与子宫内的生命有关。成人生活中疾病的发展，即健康和成人疾病或胎儿的发育起源编程。这引起了人们对围产期生理学的新兴趣。围产期研究界是多学科；汇集对母体、胎儿和胎盘感兴趣的临床医生和基础科学家生理学和大量农业动物科学家骨干，他们对伟大的动物进行比较研究与人体生理和发育的相关性。它还具有培养年轻基础和临床科学家。他们培训经验的一个重要部分是有机会在以下场所展示作品：他们可以与资深科学家互动，并从榜样的指导中受益。这次会议将由母体、胎儿、胎盘和农业动物研究人员围绕以下主题进行演讲：会议的综合主题是“发展性编程——把各个部分放在一起”。会议将于 3 日和 3 日举行。 1/2 天，包括新研究者在内的多次口头全体会议。全体会议将伴随通过多次互动研讨会讨论年轻研究者面临的关键问题和挑战在围产期生物学中。 2022 年会议新增了多项活动，包括指导研讨会为围产期生物学领域代表性不足的学员和初级教师提供“与专家会面”早餐。安排了两次海报讨论会，整个会议将展示海报，以便深入讨论工作的时间。学员或学员的最佳海报展示将获得奖项新的调查员。将根据提交的第一作者的审查来选择受训者和新的研究者科学咨询委员会颁发的差旅费摘要。一直都有很高的之前会议中女性与会者和女性发言人的比例（在我们上次会议上超过 50%）出席本次会议的会议主席的代表人数较多。我们的 URM 代表性约为 15%，我们将继续努力提高这一数字，特别是指定至少 33% 的要求 URM 年轻调查员用于旅行的预算。我们选择的场地符合美国人的要求《残疾人法案》提供儿童保育和众多家庭活动，以方便所有人参加。
