DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The Mount Desert Island Biological Laboratory (MDIBL, Salisbury Cove, ME) and the Jackson Laboratory (TJL, Bar Harbor, ME) propose a series of national conferences entitled "Mount Desert Island Stem Cell Symposium" aimed at promoting the exchange of new ideas in the field of stem cell research. These meetings will pinpoint a locus in stem cell research and invite leaders in this emerging field to present their work. Short sessions will be planned to address human ES cells and additional cells of interest. Other sessions will address the comparative nature of the science in mammalian, fish, and invertebrate systems. The first of these meetings was held August 9-12, 2002 at the Mount Desert Island Biological Laboratory (MDIBL). The second is planned for August 8-10, 2003 at MDIBL. These symposia will immediately follow a companion workshop "Current Protocols in Stem Cell Biology," and some of the faculty will participate in both the workshop and the symposium. The Steering Committee for the conference series', comprised of national leaders in biomedical and stem cell research, will develop the program of each symposium to address topical issues in stem cell research and policy. The Steering Committee, assisted by the International Society for Stem Cell Research, will invite an international roster of speakers who are conducting the most compelling studies in their areas. In addition, local researchers from MDIBL and TJL will present their work as it relates to the focus of each year's symposium. Finally, the series will feature an annual moderated public discussion concerning issues of ethics or public policy. Stem cell research is advancing rapidly because new tools and strategies are providing opportunities for new insights and applications. The cornerstone of this process is the effective communication of ideas and strategies. To this end, we propose a four-year national conference series, the "Mount Desert Island Stem Cell Symposium.

描述（由申请人提供）： 荒岛山岛生物实验室（MDIBL，索尔兹伯里湾，我）和杰克逊实验室（TJL，Bar Harbour，我）提出了一系列题为“荒岛山干细胞研讨会”的全国性会议，旨在促进干细胞研究领域的新思想交流。这些会议将在干细胞研究中查明一个基因座，并邀请这个新兴领域的领导者展示他们的工作。将计划简短的会议来解决人类ES细胞和其他感兴趣的细胞。其他会议将解决哺乳动物，鱼类和无脊椎动物系统中科学的比较性质。这些会议中的第一次会议于2002年8月9日至12日在沙漠山岛生物实验室（MDIBL）举行。第二个计划于2003年8月8日至10日在MDIBL举行。这些研讨会将立即遵循伴侣研讨会“干细胞生物学中的当前协议”，其中一些教师将同时参加研讨会和研讨会。由生物医学和干细胞研究的国家领导人组成的会议系列指导委员会将制定每个研讨会的计划，以解决干细胞研究和政策中的主题问题。在国际干细胞研究协会的协助下，指导委员会将邀请国际发言人阵容，这些演讲者正在其地区进行最引人注目的研究。此外，来自MDIBL和TJL的本地研究人员将展示他们的工作，因为它与每年的研讨会的重点有关。最后，该系列将针对道德或公共政策问题进行年度主持的公开讨论。干细胞研究正在迅速发展，因为新工具和策略为新的见解和应用提供了机会。这个过程的基石是思想和策略的有效交流。为此，我们提出了一个为期四年的全国会议系列，即“荒岛山干细胞研讨会”。
