项目摘要

Summary: The American Society for Intercellular Communication (ASIC) was created by principal investigators from the United States and Canada with a goal of creating a home for research encompassing emerging mediators and pathways of intercellular communication (IC) beyond the scope of the existing societies. Organizers have focused on regular yearly meetings with interest in extracellular vesicles, particles, and RNA (EV/EP/ExRNA) and other complex pathways of molecular exchange. We believe that having ASIC as a reputable organization in North America is significant since it will provide an intellectual home for young scientists who are interested in basic science and bench to bedside related EV and non-EV research. The location of the meeting (Bolger Center; Potomac, MD) provides a platform that allows direct communication between PIs and program officers from government agencies with interest in EV research including NIH, NIST, FDA, and NSF. The meeting and the Society are innovative in many ways including that the meeting topics cover a broad range of IC processes far beyond the focus of existing societies that have been largely dominated by exosome-related research. In contrast, ASIC opens the door for studies on all supramolecular pathways of communications including EV/EP/ExRNAs, intercellular synapses, nano- and microtubes and other mechanisms. In addition, the relatively low cost of the meeting, which includes registrations, meals, and hotel, enables more students, postdocs, and junior faculty to attend. In order to further promote the inclusion of Under Represented Minorities (URM) and reduce the impact of gender or other bias, ASIC has formed the Diversity and Inclusion ASIC Committee (DIAC) under the leadership of Dr. Julie Saugstad. Along these lines our Aims focus on bringing together investigators from diverse basic science and clinical fields to discuss and advance understanding of the multifactorial impact of EV/EP/ExRNA in diagnostics, treatments, and a basic understanding of the biogenesis of normal vs. diseases states; engage young new investigators in the field of EV/EP/ExRNA and their advancement in becoming independent successful colleagues, and bring together interested parties to discuss relevant key significant topics regarding IC, and disseminate information presented at the conference to the scientific community-at-large as well as to health care providers and the general public.

概括：美国细胞间通讯学会 (ASIC) 由主要研究人员创建来自美国和加拿大，目标是为新兴领域的研究创造一个家园细胞间通讯（IC）的介质和途径超出了现有社会的范围。组织者将重点放在对细胞外囊泡、颗粒和细胞感兴趣的年度定期会议上。 RNA (EV/EP/ExRNA) 和其他复杂的分子交换途径。我们相信，拥有 ASIC 作为北美的一个信誉良好的组织具有重要意义，因为它将提供一个知识家园适合对基础科学以及实验室到临床相关电动汽车和非电动汽车感兴趣的年轻科学家研究。会议地点（博尔格中心；波托马克，马里兰州）提供了一个平台，让 PI 与对电动汽车感兴趣的政府机构项目官员之间的直接沟通研究包括 NIH、NIST、FDA 和 NSF。会议和学会在很多方面都有创新包括会议主题涵盖广泛的 IC 工艺，远远超出了现有的重点很大程度上由外泌体相关研究主导的社会。相比之下，ASIC 打开了大门用于研究所有超分子通讯途径，包括 EV/EP/ExRNA、细胞间突触、纳米管和微米管以及其他机制。另外，会议成本相对较低，其中包括注册、餐饮和酒店，使更多的学生、博士后和初级教师能够出席。为了进一步促进代表性不足的少数群体 (URM) 的包容并减少为了应对性别或其他偏见的影响，ASIC 成立了多元化和包容性 ASIC 委员会 (DIAC) 在 Julie Saugstad 博士的领导下。沿着这些思路，我们的目标集中于将来自不同基础科学和临床领域的研究人员讨论并加深对这一问题的理解 EV/EP/ExRNA 对诊断、治疗和对疾病的基本了解的多因素影响正常状态与疾病状态的生物发生；吸引 EV/EP/ExRNA 领域的年轻新研究人员以及他们在成为独立成功同事方面的进步，并将感兴趣的人聚集在一起各方讨论有关 IC 的相关关键重大话题，并传播在会议面向广大科学界以及卫生保健提供者和公众民众。
