DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The objective of this application is to request funds to support the travel and hotel expenses of approximately the top 54 percent of predoctoral students and postdoctoral fellows to attend the 2005 Teratology Society Annual Meeting in St. Pete Beach, Florida. This meeting will take place on June 25 - 30, 2005 at the TradeWinds Island Grand Resort. It will consist of a two-day education course on stem cells, followed by a five-day conference that includes various symposia, workshops, platform, and poster sessions. The encouragement and financial assistance of trainees to attend the Teratology Society Meeting is vital for the infusion of enthusiasm and new ideas into scientific discussions. In addition, these individuals will benefit greatly from interaction with leading scientists in birth defects research in a setting that encourages open exchange of ideas and experimental findings. Symposium topics for the main conference include: cognition testing, pregnancy registries updates and future directions, regulatory testing for developmental and reproductive toxicology, genetics of common birth defects, preclinical data and their value to the clinician, manipulating gametes and early embryos, as well as bioinformatics. Invited speakers are selected on their distinction and the importance and relevance of their work to current research in developmental biology and birth defects/developmental disabilities. Many events at the Teratology Society Meeting focus on student-fellow participation. Presentations by these trainees will be devoted entirely to a plenary session, and all trainees, including awardees, will be honored at a banquet during the conference. In addition, a student reception organized by the Student Affairs Committee encourages exchange of ideas and networking among trainee participants. Funds to help support and encourage student-fellow attendance at the Teratology Society 2005 Annual Meeting will enhance the quality of the meeting and the experience of the student and postdoctoral fellow attendees.

描述（由申请人提供）： 该申请的目的是请求资金支持大约前 54% 的博士前学生和博士后研究员参加在佛罗里达州圣皮特海滩举行的 2005 年畸胎学协会年会的旅行和酒店费用。 本次会议将于 2005 年 6 月 25 日至 30 日在 TradeWinds Island Grand Resort 举行。 它将包括为期两天的干细胞教育课程，随后是为期五天的会议，其中包括各种研讨会、讲习班、平台和海报会议。 鼓励和资助学员参加畸胎学会会议对于为科学讨论注入热情和新思想至关重要。 此外，在鼓励公开交流思想和实验结果的环境中，这些人将从与出生缺陷研究领域的领先科学家的互动中受益匪浅。 主会议的研讨会主题包括：认知测试、妊娠登记更新和未来方向、发育和生殖毒理学的监管测试、常见出生缺陷的遗传学、临床前数据及其对临床医生的价值、操纵配子和早期胚胎，以及生物信息学。 受邀演讲者的选择是根据他们的特点以及他们的工作对当前发育生物学和出生缺陷/发育障碍研究的重要性和相关性。 畸形学协会会议上的许多活动都注重学生同学的参与。 这些学员的演讲将完全在全体会议上进行，所有学员，包括获奖者，都将在会议期间的宴会上受到表彰。 此外，学生事务委员会组织的学生招待会鼓励学员之间交流想法和建立联系。 用于帮助支持和鼓励学生研究员参加畸形学学会 2005 年年会的资金将提高会议的质量以及学生和博士后与会者的体验。
