DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This proposal requests partial support for a meeting on Carbohydrates as a Gordon Research Conference to be held at Colby College in Maine from June 19-24, 2011. The broad and long-term goal of this conference is to bring together glycoscientists from a range of chemical and biochemical disciplines to discuss unpublished research and define important questions in the field. The specific aims of this meeting will be to 1) bring together established and young investigators, including students and postdoctoral scholars, with every effort made to include women, minorities and the disabled, who work on the chemistry and biochemistry of carbohydrates; 2) present the current state of carbohydrate synthetic, computational, and analytical tools with an emphasis on illustrating their abilities and limitations through applied examples in areas such as the development of diagnostics, vaccines, and other therapeutics, as well as with cutting-edge examples from academia; and 3) highlight emerging research areas and build interdisciplinary collaborations between synthetic chemists, analytical chemists, computational chemists/biologists/bioinformaticists, and chemical biologists to best tackle the obstacles to our understanding of the structure of, functions of, and therapeutic and diagnostic interventions based on carbohydrate interactions. The significance of this application is that this Gordon Research Conference will provide a unique international forum to bring together scientists with a range of chemistry as well as biology backgrounds with interests in carbohydrate chemistry and biology. The health relatedness of this application is that the discussions generated will help define the important questions relating to basic glycoscience and also those required for the development of therapeutic strategies needed to intervene in carbohydrate-mediated disease processes such as host-pathogen interactions and cancer. PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE (provided by applicant): The Gordon Research Conference on Carbohydrates will bring together established and young investigators, including students and postdoctoral scholars, with every effort made to include women, minorities and the disabled, who work on the chemistry and biochemistry of carbohydrates to present the current state of carbohydrate synthetic, computational, and analytical tools with an emphasis on illustrating their abilities and limitations through applied examples in areas such as the development of diagnostics, vaccines, and other therapeutics, as well as with cutting-edge examples from academia. In addition, the conference will highlight emerging research areas and build interdisciplinary collaborations between synthetic chemists, analytical chemists, computational chemists/biologists/bioinformaticists, and chemical biologists to best tackle the obstacles to our understanding of the structure of, functions of, and therapeutic and diagnostic interventions based on carbohydrate interactions.

描述（由申请人提供）：该提案要求在2011年6月19日至24日在缅因州的Colby College举行有关碳水化合物的会议的部分支持。这次会议的广泛和长期目标是将糖基督主义者汇集在一起​​，以从化学和生物化学障碍中汇集一系列化学和生物化学决心，讨论未公开的研究和在该领域中讨论重要的问题，并在该领域中进行了重要的问题。这次会议的具体目的是1）将包括学生和博士后学者在内的成熟和年轻调查员聚集在一起，并为包括妇女，少数民族和残疾人包括碳水化合物的化学和生物化学而做出的一切努力； 2）介绍碳水化合物合成，计算和分析工具的当前状态，重点是通过在诊断，疫苗和其他治疗疗法以及学术界的尖锐示例等领域中的应用实例来说明它们的能力和局限性； 3）突出了新兴的研究领域，并建立了合成化学家，分析化学家，计算化学家/生物学家/生物信息学家和化学生物学家之间的跨学科合作，以最好地解决我们对基于碳水化合物相互作用的功能以及治疗和诊断干预措施的结构的理解的障碍。该申请的意义在于，该戈登研究会议将提供一个独特的国际论坛，以将科学家汇集到具有一系列化学作用以及对碳水化合物化学和生物学感兴趣的生物学背景。该应用的健康相关性是，所产生的讨论将有助于定义与基本糖科学有关的重要问题，以及开发干预碳水化合物介导的疾病过程所需的治疗策略所需的问题，例如宿主病原体相互作用和癌症。 公共卫生相关性（由申请人提供）：戈登碳水化合物研究会议将汇集既定的和年轻的研究人员，包括学生和学者，并为包括妇女，少数群体和残疾人包括化学和生物化学的工作，以包括妇女，少数群体和残疾人，以呈现碳水化合物，以呈现碳水化合物的限制性，并在碳水化合物中进行策略和分析工具，并在碳水化合物中进行促进，并在碳水化合物中进行促进，并在碳水化合物中进行了综合工具，该工具是一种促进的工具，并有效地促进了核心工具，并有效地融合了促进的工具，并有效地融合了促进的工具。诊断，疫苗和其他治疗剂以及学术界的尖端例子等领域的例子。此外，该会议将重点介绍新兴的研究领域，并建立综合化学家，分析化学家，计算化学家/生物学家/生物信息学家和化学生物学家之间的跨学科合作，以最好地解决我们对基于碳水化合物互动的功能，治疗和诊断干预措施的结构，功能以及功能的结构的障碍。
