DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This application seeks partial support for the 9th International conference on Neural Transplantation and Repair, INTR9, to be held June 8-11, 2005 at the Grand Hotel, Taipei, Taiwan. The conference will provide a much needed multidisciplinary forum for the presentation and critical discussion of the most recent developments in the field of neural transplantation and repair. The conference will focus on repair of neurodegenerative disease and trauma, in particular Parkinson's, Huntington's, and Alzheimer's diseases as well as spinal cord injury and stroke. It will highlight new techniques in translational medicine including stem cell biology and gene therapy. The general theme of the conference is on neural protection and neural repair, particularly as these relate to gene therapy, stem cells, and cell replacement. In particular, there is an international transplant registry and a practice committee that meets during this conference and develops guidelines for clinical practice regarding cell replacement and gene therapy in neuroscience. A broad range of speakers has been sought for this conference, chosen to represent a cross-section of leading scientists in this expanding field. The venue for the ninth international meeting was chosen by an international program committee of the American Society of Neural Transplantation and Repair, and represents the first time the international meeting will be hosted by a Pacific rim nation. Thus, it will provide easier access to a large audience of scientists who may not have been able to attend the prior meetings because of geographical limitations.

描述（由申请人提供）：本申请为2005年6月8日至11日在台湾台北的Grand Hotel举行的第9届神经移植与维修国际会议的部分支持。该会议将提供一个急需的多学科论坛，以对神经移植和修复领域的最新发展进行介绍和批判性讨论。会议将重点介绍神经退行性疾病和创伤的修复，尤其是帕金森氏症，亨廷顿和阿尔茨海默氏病以及脊髓损伤和中风。它将重点介绍转化医学中的新技术，包括干细胞生物学和基因疗法。会议的一般主题是关于神经保护和神经修复，尤其是与基因疗法，干细胞和细胞置换有关。特别是，有一个国际移植注册表和一个实践委员会在本次会议上符合，并制定了有关神经科学中细胞置换和基因疗法的临床实践指南。该会议已寻求广泛的演讲者，以代表这个不断扩展的领域的主要科学家的横截面。美国神经移植与维修学会国际计划委员会选择了第九次国际会议的地点，这代表了国际会议首次由太平洋rim国家主持。因此，它将为大量的科学家提供更容易的机会，这些科学家由于地理限制而无法参加先前的会议。
