DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Funds are requested to partially cover the cost of planning, organizing, publicizing, and hosting the 29th Annual Symposium on Nonhuman Primate (NHP) Models for AIDS to be held October 25-28, 2011, 2011 at the Bell Harbor International Conference Center in Seattle, WA. This meeting has been a premier forum for presentation and exchange for the most recent scientific advances in AIDS research utilizing the nonhuman primate model. It is expected that more than 200 scientists from the United States and other countries will attend. The symposium will consist of 4 half-day scientific sessions and a poster session. The sessions will cover topics in virology, vaccines/immunology, pathogenesis/therapeutics, and primate genetics and genomics. Each session will include invited speakers who will give a 30 minute presentation. Select sessions will include a round table discussion. Invited speakers will moderate the sessions and guide discussions. A Keynote Speaker and a Banquet Speaker will address the broader issues of scientific interest and public health concerns. The scientific program will be organized by the Scientific Program Committee, consisting of 8 local and 8 non-local members, all leaders in fields of expertise, representing a broad geographic and institutional distribution. Criteria for selection of oral presentations will include relevance of the topic, originality, and quality of information in the abstract. Those giving oral presentations will be invited to submit a manuscript to be published in the Journal of Medical Primatology. A poster session will include presentations that cannot be accommodated in one of the platform sessions. The conference will also include an opening day reception, a reception with the poster sessions, and a reception and banquet on the last evening. To take advantage of the expertise assembled and to further the educational mission of this symposium, a tutorial session, aimed primarily at high school science teachers and graduate students, will be held. This session will consist of overviews on HIV/AIDS and related NHP research presented by invited speakers, followed by discussions. PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE (provided by applicant): HIV and its resulting disease, AIDS, is a critical threat to public health in the United States and internationally. This symposium contributes to the knowledge base that will ultimately result in a vaccine to prevent transmission of HIV and treatments for those currently living with AIDS.

描述（由申请人提供）：要求资金部分支付计划，组织，宣传和举办第29届非人类灵长类动物（NHP）年度研讨会，以2011年10月25日至28日在西华盛顿州西雅图市贝尔港国际会议中心举行艾滋病。这次会议一直是一个首要的论坛，用于展示和交流利用非人类灵长类动物模型的艾滋病研究的最新科学进步。预计美国和其他国家的200多名科学家将参加。研讨会将由4个半天的科学会议和海报会议组成。这些会议将涵盖病毒学，疫苗/免疫学，发病机理/治疗学以及灵长类动物遗传学和基因组学的主题。每个会议都将包括受邀演讲者，他们将进行30分钟的演讲。选择会议将包括圆桌讨论。受邀演讲者将调节会议和指导讨论。主题演讲者和宴会演讲者将解决科学兴趣和公共卫生问题的更广泛问题。科学计划将由科学计划委员会组织，由8个本地和8个非本地成员组成，所有专业领域的领导者都代表了广泛的地理和机构分布。选择口头演示的标准将包括该主题的相关性，摘要中的独创性和信息质量。那些提供口头介绍的人将被邀请提交一份手稿，以在《医学原理杂志》上发表。海报会议将包括在平台会议之一中无法容纳的演示文稿。会议还将包括开幕日招待会，海报会议的招待会以及昨晚的招待会和宴会。为了利用组装的专业知识，并将举办该研讨会的教育任务，将举行一个主要针对高中科学教师和研究生的教程。本届会议将包括有关艾滋病毒/艾滋病的概述以及受邀演讲者提出的相关NHP研究，然后进行讨论。 公共卫生相关性（由申请人提供）：艾滋病毒及其导致的疾病，艾滋病是对美国和国际公共卫生的关键威胁。该研讨会有助于知识库，最终将导致疫苗防止艾滋病毒传播和目前艾滋病患者的治疗。
