DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This application seeks partial funding for a biannual conference series entitled "Virus Assembly" to be held under the sponsorship of the Federation of American Societies of Experimental Biology (FASEB). The next meeting will be held in Saxton's River, Vermont, June 17-22, 2006, with subsequent meetings being held in June/July 2008, and June/July 2010. This conference is structured to provide an optimal opportunity for cross-disciplinary interaction between scientists that share interests in all aspects of virus assembly including virus structure, particle formation and maturation, genome packaging, virus entry and exit, virus trafficking within cells and host interactions. These topics are discussed within the context of fundamental issues in virology and as they relate to novel approaches for antiviral intervention. We also seek to encourage discussion of relatively unconventional applications of virology, such as the use of viruses in nanotechnology and materials science. The conference promotes the involvement of young female and minority scientists in these research areas. Among the invited 45 speakers and session chairs there will be 12 women. 9 additional presentations will be solicited from young scientists who submit abstracts. The major themes will be 1) structures of virions and viral proteins, 2) packaging of the viral genome, 3) viral entry, 4) viral fusion and uncoating, 5) trafficking of viruses in the cell, 6) viral protein folding and chaperone function, 7) dynamics of viral assembly, 8) virus-host interactions and 9) viruses in biotechnology and materials science.

描述（由申请人提供）：本申请为在美国实验生物学联合会（FASEB）的赞助下举行的题为“病毒装配”的双年度会议系列寻求部分资金。下一次会议将于2006年6月17日至22日在佛蒙特州的萨克斯顿河举行，随后举行会议 该会议于2008年6月/7月和2010年6月/7月举行。该会议旨在为科学家之间的跨学科相互作用提供最佳机会，这些科学家在病毒组装各个方面具有兴趣，包括病毒结构，颗粒形成和成熟，基因组包装，病毒，病毒进入和退出，细胞中的病毒和宿主交互。这些主题是在病毒学基本问题的背景下讨论的，并且与抗病毒干预的新方法有关。我们还寻求鼓励讨论病毒学的相对非常规应用，例如在纳米技术和材料科学中使用病毒。会议促进 这些研究领域的年轻女性和少数族裔科学家的参与。在受邀的45​​名演讲者和会议椅中，将有12名妇女。 9年的其他演讲将由提交摘要的年轻科学家征求。主要主题将是1）病毒和病毒蛋白的结构，2）病毒基因组的包装，3）病毒进入，4）病毒融合和脱膜，5）5）细胞中病毒的运输，6）病毒蛋白折叠和酶促功能，7）病毒组装的动力学，8）病毒互动和9）病毒式和9）材料。
