DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This application requests continued support, for a 5-year period, for a package of elements that constitutes a "Research Symposium" within the annual Clinical Aphasiology Conference (CAC). The CAC is the only scientific meeting dedicated to research that has clear implications for the clinical management of aphasia and related disorders. The goals of the proposed Research Symposium are twofold. The first is to continue to contribute to the vitality of ongoing research in clinical aphasiology. The Research Symposium will target this goal by assembling a coordinated set of keynote and topically-related platform presentations and commentary, that will engage attendees in the most current theory, perspectives, data, and debate on topics of relevance to contemporary research and practice. The second goal is to continue to contribute to the development of new investigators in clinical aphasiology, particularly students who are members of traditionally underrepresented minority/ethnic groups. For student fellows supported by this grant, the Research Symposium will supplement cutting-edge topic knowledge with practice in presenting and discussing their own research, and with other specially-designed mentoring opportunities. The 2006 CAC (and Research Symposium) is scheduled for May 30-June 3 in Ghent, Belgium. Invited speakers on the topic of "Neuroplasticity and Recovery from Aphasia" will eludicate some of the newest ways to conceptualize and capture recovery, with reference to brain structure and function, and provide upto- the-minute evidence about the brain's capacity for reorganization when exposed to treatment/experience regimens. Subsequent meetings will be held on approximately the same dates. The location for 2007 is the Chaparal Suites Resort in Scottsdale, with the likely topic of "Bilingual Aphasia." Other sites and topics remain to be finalized and will depend on advances in the field, but potential topics include: "The Structure of Language and Music," "Working Memory and Language," and "Sign Language in Aphasia." Aphasia is a devastating communication problem that can impair talking, understand others, reading, and writing. Attendees at this conference will learn new things to help assess and treat aphasia more effectively.

描述（由申请人提供）：本申请要求在5年期间继续支持在年度临床失语学会议（CAC）中构成“研究研讨会”的一揽子元素。 CAC是唯一致力于研究的科学会议，对失语症和相关疾病的临床管理具有明显的影响。拟议的研究研讨会的目标是双重的。首先是继续有助于临床失语学正在进行的研究的活力。研究研讨会将通过组装一组协调的主题演讲和与局部相关的平台演示和评论来针对这一目标，这些主题演讲和评论将与与会者有关与当代研究和实践相关性的主题的最新理论，观点，数据以及辩论。第二个目标是继续为临床失语学的新研究人员的发展做出贡献，尤其是传统上代表性不足的少数群体/族裔成员的学生。对于这项赠款支持的学生研究员，研究研讨会将通过实践来补充尖端的主题知识，以介绍和讨论自己的研究以及其他专门设计的指导机会。 2006年的CAC（和研究研讨会）定于5月30日至6月3日在比利时根特市举行。邀请演讲者就“神经塑性和恢复性恢复”主题的邀请，将避免在大脑结构和功能方面概念化和捕获恢复的一些最新方法，并提供有关大脑在暴露于治疗/经验方案时大脑重组能力的最高证据。随后的会议将在大致相同的日期举行。 2007年的地点是斯科茨代尔（Scottsdale）的Chaparal Suites Resort，可能是“双语失语症”的主题。其他站点和主题仍有待决策，并取决于该领域的进步，但潜在的主题包括：“语言和音乐的结构”，“工作记忆和语言”，以及“失语症中的手语”。失语症是一个毁灭性的沟通问题，可能会损害说话，理解他人，阅读和写作。这次会议的与会者将学习新事物，以帮助更有效地评估和治疗失语症。
