DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Support is requested for the next five annual meetings of the American Society for Neurochemistry beginning with the 2004 meeting to be held in New York City from August 14-18, 2004. To accommodate the breadth of neurochemistry as well as cellular and molecular neurobiology, and to provide in-depth expositions of articular topics, the ASN programs for the next five years will build its scientific program around four interwoven, but distinct, themes. 1) Building the Nervous System: Sessions in this theme address the generation of cell diversity, elaboration of neuronal cytoarchitecture, specificity of synapse formation and the role of growth factors during development. 2) Metabolism and Cell and Molecular Neuroscience: Sessions under this theme deal with basic mechanisms applicable in a wide range of health issues ranging from metabolism to neurotransmitter function and from cell motility to molecular cell structure. 3) Glial Mechanisms and Injury: The crucial role of non-neuronal cells in neural development and pathogenesis are explored in sessions that address basic glial biology and the role of the glia in diseases such as Multiple Sclerosis, Alzheimer's Disease, and CNS injury. 4) Neuronal Degeneration and Disease: This theme continues to be a focus of ASN meetings. Sessions address the mechanisms of Neurodegeneration, the role of inflammation, and the contributions of neurotransmitters to the disease state. These themes have been selected to increase our understanding of the cellular and molecular bases of neural development and disease. NIH support for previous meetings of the ASN has been invaluable for supporting the ASN's scientific programs and for enhancing the ability of ASN to attract graduate students and postdoctoral researchers to attend the meeting.

说明（由申请人提供）：请求对美国神经化学学会接下来的五次年会提供支持，从 2004 年会议开始，该年会将于 2004 年 8 月 14 日至 18 日在纽约市举行。作为细胞和分子神经生物学，并提供对特定主题的深入阐述，未来五年的 ASN 计划将围绕四个相互交织但又截然不同的主题构建其科学计划。 1) 构建神经系统：该主题的会议讨论细胞多样性的产生、神经元细胞结构的阐述、突触形成的特异性以及生长因子在发育过程中的作用。 2）新陈代谢和细胞和分子神经科学：该主题下的会议涉及适用于广泛健康问题的基本机制，从新陈代谢到神经递质功能，从细胞运动到分子细胞结构。 3) 神经胶质机制和损伤：在讨论基本神经胶质生物学以及神经胶质细胞在多发性硬化症、阿尔茨海默病和中枢神经系统损伤等疾病中的作用的会议中，探讨了非神经元细胞在神经发育和发病机制中的关键作用。 4) 神经元变性和疾病：这个主题仍然是 ASN 会议的焦点。 会议讨论神经退行性变的机制、炎症的作用以及神经递质对疾病状态的贡献。 选择这些主题是为了增加我们对神经发育和疾病的细胞和分子基础的理解。 NIH 对 ASN 以往会议的支持对于支持 ASN 的科学项目以及增强 ASN 吸引研究生和博士后研究人员参加会议的能力来说是非常宝贵的。
