DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant) The Twenty-Fifth International Neurotoxicology Conference (NEUROTOX 25) addressing the theme of "Environmental Etiologies of Neurological Disorders: Scientific, Translational and Policy Implications" will be held October 12-16, 2008 in Rochester, New York. The meeting locations are the Hyatt Regency Conference Center and the University of Rochester Medical Center located nearby. The International Neurotoxicology Conference is an annual event that focuses on a timely theme while providing an opportunity for presenting new data related to the general interdisciplinary field of neurotoxicology. The International Neurotoxicology Conference Series will reach its silver anniversary in 2008, with its 25th meeting. The Specific Aims identified in the proposal will be accomplished by organizing and conducting a 4 1/2 day conference according to a varied format similar to previous conferences in this series which has proven to be highly successful. Each conference has its own "special touch" and consists of Tutorials, Symposia, Workshops, Panel Discussions, Roundtables, Debates, Poster Session, Pre- and Postdoctoral Student Competition and Awards and social events as well as novel approaches to facilitate networking and mentoring. NEUROTOX 25 will not be simply an occasion to present data. It will also coalesce human, experimental animal, methodological, and epidemiological research, as well as risk assessment, social and policy implications, by offering a well-recognized venue where previously unconnected investigators can come together and where commonalties can emerge. Traditionally the Neurotoxicology Conference places special emphasis on nurturing, promoting and rewarding pre- and post-doctoral students and young investigators. Extra effort is extended to mentor students and help them network with the leaders in the field. The health relatedness of this application is that the results of this conference will contribute to a fuller understanding of the true risk posed by environmental toxicants for human neurological diseases or disorders. It has become evident that many human neurological diseases arise from complex interactions of multiple risk factors, of which environmental chemical exposures may serve as one contributing risk. Other environmental and host factors, such as genetic background, stage of development, dietary status, immune status, obesity, stress, socioeconomic status, gender, aging, behavior, and intercurrent disease state, as well as simultaneous chemical exposures, can also contribute. Science, policy, and translation can no longer be treated as independent entities. NEUROTOXICOLOGY 25 is poised to view and address them as they truly are: a multidimensional interdisciplinary problem.

描述（由申请人提供） 第二十五届国际神经毒理学会议（NEUROTOX 25）将于2008年10月12日至16日在纽约罗彻斯特举行，主题为“神经系统疾病的环境病因：科学、转化和政策影响”。会议地点是附近的凯悦摄政会议中心和罗切斯特大学医学中心。国际神经毒理学会议是一年一度的活动，重点关注及时的主题，同时提供展示与神经毒理学一般跨学科领域相关的新数据的机会。国际神经毒理学会议系列将于 2008 年举办第 25 届会议，迎来其银周年纪念日。该提案中确定的具体目标将通过组织和举办一次为期 4 1/2 天的会议来实现，该会议的形式与本系列之前的会议类似，已被证明非常成功。每个会议都有自己的“特殊风格”，包括教程、专题讨论会、研讨会、小组讨论、圆桌会议、辩论、海报会议、博士前和博士后学生竞赛和奖项、社交活动以及促进网络和指导的新颖方法。 NEUROTOX 25 不仅仅是一个展示数据的场合。它还将通过提供一个公认的场所，将人类、实验动物、方法论和流行病学研究，以及风险评估、社会和政策影响结合起来，让以前没有联系的研究人员可以聚集在一起，并出现共同点。传统上，神经毒理学会议特别强调培养、促进和奖励博士前、博士后和年轻研究人员。我们还付出额外的努力来指导学生并帮助他们与该领域的领导者建立联系。该应用与健康的相关性在于，本次会议的结果将有助于更全面地了解环境毒物对人类神经系统疾病或紊乱造成的真正风险。很明显，许多人类神经系统疾病是由多种危险因素复杂的相互作用引起的，其中环境化学物质暴露可能是其中的一种促成风险。其他环境和宿主因素，例如遗传背景、发育阶段、饮食状况、免疫状态、肥胖、压力、社会经济地位、性别、衰老、行为和并发疾病状态，以及同时接触的化学物质，也可能有所影响。科学、政策和翻译不再被视为独立的实体。 NEUROTOXICOLOGY 25 准备真实地看待和解决这些问题：一个多维的跨学科问题。
