DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): We request partial funding for the 9th Annual Meeting of the Oxygen Society to be held on Nov 20-24, 2002 at the San Antonio Marriott Rivercenter, San Antonio, TX. Funds will support the travel, lodging and registration fees of invited speakers so that funds from The Oxygen Society operating budget and annual meeting income can be directed toward supporting the travel and participation of students, fellows and young investigators, as well as members lecturing in an optional workshop on "Back to the Basics: Measurement of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species and their biological effects". This workshop will provide lectures by experts to young or new investigators on the concepts, approaches, interpretations and various techniques applied in quantification of reactants and products of oxidant/free radical-mediated reactions in vitro and in vivo. The body of the meeting will then begin for four days, with four invited plenary lectures delivered in the morning and two parallel afternoon sessions. The themes of the four invited plenary lectures in the morning are: Reactive Oxygen and Nitrogen Species in Sickle Cell Disease, Free Radicals and the Biology of Aging, Biological and Antioxidant Activities of Flavanoids, and Nitrative Stress and Neurodegeneration. The lectures delivered in the afternoon sessions will be selected from abstracts submitted at large by members of the Program Committee. Each afternoon session will be chaired by selected young investigators in the field. From 8-9:30 am, The Sunrise Free Radical School, a distinct characteristic of the Oxygen Society Meeting, will be held each day featuring senior scientists or experts in the field addressing fundamental aspects of free radical chemistry and biology to an audience consisting of students, fellows and young investigators. Poster sessions will be displayed all day and will be open for discussion between 4:30-6:30 pm. Overall, sessions will address a broad range of research endeavors surrounding the diverse roles that reactive oxygen and nitrogen species play in biology and disease. Research presented will have an impact on our understanding of aging as well as cardiovascular, neoplastic, inflammatory and neurodegenerative diseases and may provide new insight into mechanisms by which novel antioxidants and therapeutics may attenuate some of these diseases. In summary, the conference provides a forum for exchange of recent basic and applied research on free radical chemistry, biology & medicine as well as an opportunity for scientists to discuss new collaborative arrangements.

说明（由申请人提供）：我们请求为将于 2002 年 11 月 20 日至 24 日在德克萨斯州圣安东尼奥市圣安东尼奥河中心万豪酒店举行的第九届氧气协会年会提供部分资金。资金将用于支持受邀演讲者的差旅费、住宿费和注册费，以便氧气协会运营预算和年会收入中的资金可用于支持学生、研究员和年轻研究人员以及在研讨会上演讲的成员的差旅和参与。可选讲习班“回到基础：活性氧和氮的测量及其生物效应”。该研讨会将由专家为年轻或新的研究人员提供关于定量体外和体内氧化剂/自由基介导的反应的反应物和产物的概念、方法、解释和各种技术的讲座。随后，会议主体将开始为期四天，上午有四场特邀全体演讲，下午有两场平行会议。上午四场特邀全体报告的主题分别是：镰状细胞病中的活性氧和氮、自由基和衰老生物学、黄酮类化合物的生物和抗氧化活性、硝基应激和神经变性。下午的讲座将从计划委员会成员提交的摘要中选出。每天下午的会议将由该领域选定的年轻研究人员主持。上午 8 点至 9 点 30 分，日出自由基学校是氧气协会会议的一个显着特征，每天将举行该领域的资深科学家或专家，向观众介绍自由基化学和生物学的基本方面，包括：学生、研究员和年轻的研究人员。海报会议将全天展示，并在下午 4:30-6:30 之间开放供讨论。总体而言，会议将讨论围绕活性氧和氮物种在生物学和疾病中发挥的不同作用的广泛研究工作。所发表的研究将影响我们对衰老以及心血管、肿瘤、炎症和神经退行性疾病的理解，并可能为新型抗氧化剂和治疗方法减轻其中一些疾病的机制提供新的见解。总之，会议为交流自由基化学、生物学和医学的最新基础和应用研究提供了一个论坛，并为科学家讨论新的合作安排提供了机会。
