DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The Kentucky Spinal Cord & Head Injury Trust (KSCHIRT) Symposium is an annual meeting of neuroscientists, clinicians, research fellows and graduate and medical students who are involved in research and treatment of patients suffering from the effects of central nervous system (CNS) trauma. The KSCHIRT Symposium is fast becoming a premier annual meeting of the Neurotrauma community. This Symposium provides basic scientists and clinicians a rare opportunity to meet and discuss questions related to the neuropathophysiology of brain and spinal cord injury, the latest in neuroprotective strategies as well as mechanisms of recovery. This symposium is unique not only the subject matter covered but the diversity of the attendees. The KSCHIRT Symposium is organized on a biyearly basis by the University of Kentucky Spinal Cord & Brain Injury Research Center (SCoBIRC) or by our sister organization, the Kentucky Spinal Cord Injury Research Center at the University of Louisville. The goal of the University of Kentucky SCoBIRC is promote research on injuries to the spinal cord and brain that result in paralysis or other loss of neurological function. The 2008 14th annual KSCHIRT Symposium will focus specifically on the most cutting edge areas of central nervous system injury and repair including the latest breakthroughs in neuroprostheses. The Specific Aims of the 14th annual Kentucky Spinal Cord & Head Injury Trust Symposium are: 1. To provide a forum for the presentation, discussion and feedback regarding the most recent findings in Neurotrauma research and to encourage extensive interaction between those new to the field and those with extensive experience of neurotrauma. 2. To have relevant and thought-provoking presentations by researchers not directly involved in Neurotrauma research. The goal is to foster new ideas and ways of thinking into mainstream Neurotrauma as well as to encourage scientist from other disciplines to engage in Neurotrauma research. 3. To encourage participation and education of students that are entering or studying the field of Neurotrauma. The Symposium fosters student participation through poster sessions, meet and greets with the speakers, and subsidized student registration fees. 4. To encourage the involvement of researchers from women, minority groups, and persons with disabilities in neurotrauma research. The program for the 2008 symposium will feature 16 lectures and 2 dedicated posters. Their also dinner that is served the first night of the conference with seating that places students and fellows at tables with the speakers. Lunch is also arranged in this fashion. PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE: The direct relevance of this project to public health rests in the exchange of new ideas and the debate generated regarding advancing laboratory findings into clinical practice. Students, basic scientists, clinician-scientists, and practicing clinicians are brought together to present and discuss their latest discoveries and advancements in the field in the field of Neurotrauma. Particular efforts are made to actively engage students to participate and interact with leading basic scientists and clinicians in the Neurotrauma field of research.

描述（由申请人提供）：肯塔基州脊髓和头部伤害信托基金（KSCHIRT）研讨会是神经科学家，临床医生，研究研究员和研究生和医学生的年度会议，他们参与研究和治疗患有中枢神经系统（CNS）影响的患者。 KSCHIRT研讨会正迅速成为Neurotrauma社区的首要年度会议。该研讨会为基础科学家和临床医生提供了难得的机会，可以满足和讨论与大脑和脊髓损伤的神经病理生理学有关的问题，这是最新的神经保护策略以及恢复机制。该研讨会不仅是涵盖的主题，而且是与会者的多样性。 KSCHIRT研讨会由肯塔基大学的脊髓和脑损伤研究中心（SCOBIRC）或我们的姐妹组织，路易斯维尔大学的肯塔基州脊髓损伤研究中心进行了双年生组织。肯塔基大学SCOBIRC的目标是促进对脊髓和大脑损伤的研究，从而导致瘫痪或其他神经功能的丧失。 2008年第14届年度KSCHIRT研讨会将专门集中于中枢神经系统损伤和修复的最前沿领域，包括神经propt的最新突破。第14届年度肯塔基州脊髓和头部伤害信托座谈会的具体目的是：1。提供一个论坛，以介绍神经洛玛研究的最新发现，并鼓励新领域的人们与具有广泛神经洛玛的经验的人们之间进行广泛的互动。 2。要由不直接参与神经研究的研究人员进行相关和发人深省的演讲。目的是促进新的思想和思维方式，以鼓励其他学科的科学家从事神经病研究。 3。鼓励进入或研究神经曲领域的学生的参与和教育。研讨会通过海报会议来培养学生的参与，与演讲者会面并打招呼，并补贴学生注册费。 4。鼓励妇女，少数群体和残疾人的研究人员参与神经瘤研究。 2008年研讨会的计划将配备16次讲座和2个专用海报。他们的晚餐在会议的第一个晚上与座位一起送达，将学生和研究员与演讲者一起放在桌子旁。午餐也以这种方式安排。 公共卫生相关性：该项目与公共卫生的直接相关性在于交换新思想以及有关将实验室发现推进临床实践的辩论。学生，基础科学家，临床医生和实践临床医生聚集在一起，讨论并讨论他们在Neurotrauma领域的最新发现和进步。采取特殊努力，积极吸引学生参与神经研究领域的主要基础科学家和临床医生的参与和互动。
