Financial support is requested for the 4th Biennial International Eosinophil Symposium, scheduled for May 25-29, 2005 at University Hospital, Bern, Switzerland, and the 5th Biennial Symposium in 2007. These biennial conferences are held under the auspices of the International Eosinophil Society (IES). The 2005 meeting will host 41 invited plenary speakers and an additional -120 participants who are solicited to submit abstracts for selection for "Cutting Edge" oral presentation and poster sessions by young scientists. The conference begins with a reception/orientation on Wed., May 25 and finishes on Sun., May 29. A cutting edge program of basic, translational, and clinical research has been prepared by the Local Organizing Committee in consultation with the International Advisory Committee, and the Executive Committee of the IES. The Symposium provides outstanding opportunities for oral and poster presentations by junior investigators, and plenary sessions on the most recent advances in this biomedically important, diverse and interdisciplinary field. The Symposium features invited talks by leaders in eosinophil research and allied fields from the perspectives of asthma, allergy, pulmonary, gastrointestinal and parasitic diseases, and includes a new Paul Erlich Lectureship, and Keynote Addresses on future directions in eosinophil research. The focus is on both basic aspects of eosinophil cellular, molecular and immunobiology, integrated with translational and clinical investigations of the roles of eosinophils in normal physiology and disease pathogenesis. Sessions on eosinophilic GI diseases, eosinophils in tissue remodeling and fibrosis, new pathogenic aspects of hypereosinophilic syndromes, and anti-eosinophil treatment strategies have been added this year, including discussions on applications of knowledge of eosinophil biology to drug discovery for eosinophil-associated diseases. The Symposium is a highly interactive, workshop-like, forum for both oral and poster presentations of cutting edge abstracts by younger scientists, particularly graduate students, postdoctoral fellows, and junior faculty. Afternoons are purposefully unscheduled to allow opportunities for scientific discussions, and social/recreational activities in and around the conference venue. The 4"' Symposium covers major themes on: (1) Regulation of Eosinophil Development, Functional Maturation (Activation and Inhibition), and Death, (2) Animal Models of Eosinophil Diseases, (3) Roles of Eosinophils in Gastrointestinal Diseases, (4) Eosinophils in Innate Immunity, (5) Eosinophil Regulation of Th2 Immune Responses, (6) Hosinophiis in Tissue Remodeling and Fibrosis, (7) New Pathogenic Aspects of Hypereosinophilic Syndromes, and (8) Anti-eosinophil Treatment Strategics. The central goal of this conference is to provide a highly interactive forum for scientific exchange and collaboration amongst junior and senior scientists in the fields of allergy, immunology, hematology, and cancer as relates to the biology and functions of the eosinophil in normal host physiology in health and pathophysiology in disease.

要求为2007年5月25日至29日在瑞士伯尔尼大学医院和2007年第5届双年展研讨会上举行的第四次两年一次的国际嗜酸性粒细胞研讨会。 2005年的会议将举办41位受邀全体演讲者和另外一个-120名参与者，他们被邀请提交摘要，以选择“最先进”的口头演讲和年轻科学家的海报会议。会议始于5月25日星期三的接待/取向，并于5月29日在阳光下结束。当地组织委员会与国际咨询委员会和IES执行委员会协商了当地组织委员会的基础，转化和临床研究的尖端计划。该研讨会为初级调查人员提供了口头和海报演示的出色机会，以及有关这个生物医学重要，多样化和跨学科领域的最新进展的全体会议。研讨会的特征是，从哮喘，过敏，肺，胃肠道和寄生虫疾病的角度来看，领导者在嗜酸性粒细胞研究和盟军领域的邀请演讲，其中包括新的Paul Erlich讲座，以及在嗜酸性小麦研究中未来方向上的基调。重点是嗜酸性粒细胞细胞，分子和免疫生物学的两个基本方面，与嗜酸性粒细胞在正常生理和疾病发病机理中作用的转化和临床研究融为一体。今年已经增加了有关嗜酸性胃肠道疾病，组织重塑和纤维化中的嗜酸性粒细胞，纤维化的嗜酸性疾病，过度嗜酸性粒细胞综合征的新致病性方面以及抗嗜酸性粒细胞治疗策略，包括讨论有关嗜酸性生物学对药物对嗜酸性生物学知识应用的讨论 嗜酸性粒细胞相关疾病的发现。该研讨会是一个高度互动的，类似于研讨会的论坛，针对年轻科学家，尤其是研究生，博士后研究员和初级教师的尖端摘要和海报演示。有目的地计划不定期的下午，以便为科学讨论以及会议场地及其周围的社交/娱乐活动提供机会。 4“”研讨会涵盖：（1）调节嗜酸性粒细胞发育，功能成熟（激活和抑制）和死亡，（2）嗜酸性粒细胞疾病的动物模型，（3）嗜酸性粒细胞在胃肠道疾病中的作用（6）组织重塑和纤维化中的hosinophiis，（7）嗜酸性粒细胞综合征的新致病性方面，以及（8）抗嗜酸性粒细胞治疗策略。 这次会议的核心目标是提供一个高度互动的论坛，用于在过敏，免疫学，血液学和癌症领域的初级和高级科学家之间的科学交流和协作，这与嗜酸性粒细胞在健康和病理生理学中正常宿主生理学在疾病中的生物学和功能有关。
