DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The purpose of this program is to convene a "state of the art" scientific symposium entitled "Plants in the Service of Human Health: The Continuing Search for New Plant-based Therapies" to highlight the achievements of the NIH-funded Centers for Botanical Dietary Supplement Research and the International Cooperative Biodiversity Group projects funded by the NIH Fogarty International Center. The focus of this symposium will be on new research tools and technologies used to promote the study of plants and botanicals and their biological activities that may lead toward new therapies. The Symposium will be held at the facilities of the Chicago Botanic Garden, Chicago, Illinois, on June 4, 2007, as the central event of the 48th Annual Meeting of the Society for Economic Botany (June 4-8, 2007). The Symposium will be given to an audience anticipated to number approximately 250, from a wide range of disciplines related to plant science. Through discussions among the symposium participants and audience the project will promote scientific multi- disciplinary collaboration, exchange of ideas and communication among the groups that will facilitate the application of new methodologies, tools and technologies toward the investigation of plants and botanicals and their biological activities toward new therapies, as well as facilitate new cross-disciplinary research initiatives in these fields. We plan to publish proceedings of the Symposium as a set of peer-reviewed manuscripts in a prominent journal in the field of natural products research. Both the NIH-funded Centers for Botanical Dietary Supplement Research, which scientifically evaluate herbal therapies, and the International Cooperative Biodiversity Group projects funded by the NIH Fogarty International Center, which attempt to discover new prescription drugs from plants, are striving to develop and standardize effective therapies based on plants. No previous forum has brought the two programs together, and there has been little scientific exchange between the two programs. The proposed symposium will allow a unique interaction that may bring about advances in both programs, optimizing and enhancing their ability to deliver plant-based therapies for human health.

描述（由申请人提供）：该计划的目的是召集一个“艺术状态”的科学研讨会，题为“为人类健康服务的植物：持续寻求新的基于植物的疗法，以突出NIH资助的植物学饮食补充剂研究中的NIH资助中心的成就。该研讨会的重点将放在用于促进​​植物和植物学研究及其生物学活动的新研究工具和技术上，这些研究可能导致新的疗法。该研讨会将于2007年6月4日在伊利诺伊州芝加哥芝加哥植物园的设施举行，作为经济植物学协会第48届年会的中央活动（2007年6月4日至8日）。该研讨会将从与植物科学相关的广泛学科中给予预计将大约250的观众提供。通过研讨会参与者和受众之间的讨论，该项目将促进科学的多学科合作，在各组之间进行思想和沟通的交流和沟通，这将促进新方法，工具和技术在研究植物和植物学活动及其生物学活动及其在新疗法方面的研究，并促进这些领域的新跨学科研究起源。我们计划在天然产品研究领域的著名杂志中发表研讨会作为一组经过同行评审的手稿的会议记录。 NIH资助的植物饮食补充剂研究中心，该研究对草药疗法进行了科学评估，以及由NIH Fogarty International Center资助的国际合作生物多样性小组项目，该项目试图从植物中发现新的处方药，正在努力开发和标准化基于工厂的有效疗法。以前的论坛没有将这两个程序召集在一起，两个程序之间几乎没有科学交流。拟议的研讨会将允许独特的互动，该互动可能会在两个计划中取得进步，从而优化和增强其为人类健康提供基于植物的疗法的能力。
