The purpose of this proposal is to request funding for conference fees and/or travel expenses for students and post-doctoral fellows who will be attending the Gordon Research Conference on Staphylococcal Diseases, which will be held from August 21 to August 26, 2005, at Salve Regina University in Newport, Rhode Island. The emphasis of this conference is on the biology of Staphylococcus aureus; pathogenesis of diseases caused by staphylococci; and recent advances in basic, applied, and clinical research that bear on prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of Staphylococcal disease. This conference, established first in 1989 and held since bianually, is the premier meeting in the field, attracting basic researchers and clinical researchers from academia, government, and industry. The conference is valued for the high quality of the science, state-of-the-art knowledge, a collegial environment that encourages close interactions, and the opportunity for new and productive collaborations. Nine scientific sessions are planned to cover the following topics: genomics and proteomics under relevant biological contexts, bacterial physiology and metabolism linked to pathogenicity, regulation of autolysis, interactions with host cells, immune responses to S. aureus, new concepts of cell wall structure and function, molecular and clinical paradigms related to community-acquired methicillin-resistant S. aureus, issues related to S. epidermidis, and a late-breaker session including an oral presentations of the best posters and controversial topics. The last session allows for scheduling flexibility and assures a forum for presentation of the latest information, which can be a short-coming of meetings that are planned a year in advance. Daily poster sessions are scheduled in the late afternoon and evenings. Based on past experience, the Staphylococcal Diseases meeting will have broad international representation with speakers and discussion leaders from Europe, Asia, Australia, and the United States. This will afford a unique and rich opportunity for fellowship and scientific exchange between young and established investigators in the field.

该提案的目的是要求为学生和博士后研究员提供会议费和/或旅行费用，他们将参加戈登葡萄球菌疾病研究会议，该会议将于2005年8月21日至8月26日在罗德岛州纽波特的Salve Regina University举行。这次会议的重点是金黄色葡萄球菌的生物学；葡萄球菌引起的疾病的发病机理；以及在预防，诊断和治疗葡萄球菌疾病的基本，应用和临床研究方面的最新进展。这次会议于1989年首次成立，自二元时举行，是该领域的主要会议，吸引了基础研究人员和临床 学术界，政府和工业的研究人员。该会议的重视是科学的高质量，最先进的知识，鼓励紧密互动的大学环境以及进行新的和生产性合作的机会。计划九种科学会议涵盖以下主题：在相关的生物学环境下的基因组学和蛋白质组学，细菌生理学和代谢与致病性，自动分解的调节，宿主细胞相互作用，与葡萄球菌的免疫反应，与细胞壁结构和功能相关的新概念，与分子和临床范围的新概念相关的概念S. epidermidis，以及一场后期的会议，包括最佳海报和有争议的主题的口头演示。上一届会议允许安排灵活性并确保一个论坛以介绍最新信息，这可能是提前一年计划的会议的短期。每日海报会议定于下午晚些时候和晚上。根据过去的经验，葡萄球菌疾病会议将与来自欧洲，亚洲，澳大利亚和美国的演讲者和讨论领袖进行广泛的国际代表。这将为年轻和成熟的调查员之间的团契和科学交流提供独特而丰富的机会。
