项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The Plant and Fungal Gordon Research Conference provides a forum for all researchers studying fungal and plant cytoskeleton to present and discuss results and information on a board range of topics. It will be held from August 3-8, 2008 in Il Ciocco, in Barga Italy. Like many Gordon Conferences, this meeting is one of the most prestigious meetings in the field and brings together a unique group of scientists. The primary discussion will be the platform sessions and the poster presentations. The meeting attracts researchers who work on a large number of organisms that are not served by other conferences and speakers work on a variety of parasites, lower plants, and algae as well as fungi. The meeting provides an excellent resource for graduate student and postdoctoral researchers who are considering these areas of research for their postdoctoral work as well as faculty who may be considering new areas in their research program. Although many of the invited speakers are established, the list includes 12 young investigators and short talks are chosen from the abstracts. These speakers are often graduate students and postdoctoral fellows. Nearly one-third of the invited speakers are women. We have invited a larger number of speakers from Europe. This conference provides a forum for discussing new methods and procedures that help both fungal and plant research. The inclusion of algae and parasites will add a new dimension on human health as related to ciliopathies and infection.

描述（由申请人提供）：植物和真菌戈登研究会议为所有研究真菌和植物细胞骨架的研究人员提供了一个论坛，以展示和讨论一系列主题的结果和信息。比赛将于2008年8月3日至8日在意大利巴尔加的Il Ciocco举行。与许多戈登会议一样，这次会议是该领域最负盛名的会议之一，汇聚了一群独特的科学家。主要讨论将是平台会议和海报展示。该会议吸引了研究其他会议没有提供的大量生物体的研究人员，以及研究各种寄生虫、低等植物、藻类和真菌的演讲者。该会议为正在考虑将这些研究领域用于博士后工作的研究生和博士后研究人员以及可能正在考虑研究项目中新领域的教师提供了极好的资源。尽管许多受邀演讲者已确定，但名单中包括 12 名年轻研究者，简短的演讲是从摘要中选出的。这些演讲者通常是研究生和博士后。近三分之一的受邀演讲者是女性。我们邀请了更多来自欧洲的演讲者。这次会议提供了一个讨论有助于真菌和植物研究的新方法和程序的论坛。藻类和寄生虫的加入将为人类健康增加与纤毛病和感染相关的新维度。
