DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The primary goal of this application is to promote research and training in the neurobiology of speech and language via support for an annual scientific conference, the Neurobiology of Language Conference (NLC). The NLC fills a much-needed gap in scientific meetings on the neural basis of language by emphasizing the strongest work on the integration of neuroscience research and communication disorders with cognitive, linguistic, psycholinguistic, perceptual, and motor control models of speech and language. We have the following five specific aims. (1) To support an annual meeting on the Neurobiology of Language with the aim of providing a forum for the interaction of researchers in the full range of allied areas including neuroscience, genetics, communications disorders, cognitive psychology, linguistics, psycholinguistics, neurolinguistics, perception, motor control, computational modeling, and neural and psychophysical methods. (2) To expand the breadth of knowledge of researchers in the field by bringing in distinguished keynote speakers in neuroscience and biology. (3) To advance the training and education in the neurobiology of language by providing student scholarships for conference attendance. (4) To promote diversity in the field by providing scholarships for conference attendance to under-represented groups. Because the NLC meeting brings together a broad range of language scientists who don't normally interact regularly, we believe the meeting will lead to valuable new interactions, collaborations, and novel ideas in the Neurobiology of Language, including both basic scientific findings and applied findings in physiologically-based therapies for neurogenic language disorders. PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE: Language disorders affect millions of people in the United States. There is an extensive research community, with much of this research funded by NIDCD, which targets both basic and clinically-oriented research on the neural basis of language and language disorders. By providing a forum for the communication of new research findings and emerging trends, the Neurobiology of Language Conference will play a pivotal role in scientific progress aimed at understanding, diagnosing, and treating language disorders.

描述（由申请人提供）：本申请的主要目标是通过支持年度科学会议，即语言会议（NLC），促进语音和语言神经生物学的研究和培训。 NLC通过强调神经科学研究和沟通障碍与认知，语言，心理语言，感知和言语和语言的运动模型的最强工作，在语言的神经基础上填补了急需的差距。我们有以下五个具体目标。 （1）支持关于语言神经生物学的年度会议，目的是为研究人员提供一个论坛，以在整个联盟领域的研究中相互作用，包括神经科学，遗传学，沟通障碍，认知心理学，语言学，心理语言学，神经语言学，神经语言学，感知学，感知，运动模型，计算模型，计算模型，计算模型，和心理学方法。 （2）通过引入神经科学和生物学的杰出主题演讲者来扩大现场研究人员的知识广度。 （3）通过为出席会议提供学生奖学金来推进语言神经生物学的培训和教育。 （4）通过向代表性不足的团体提供会议出勤的奖学金来促进该领域的多样性。由于NLC会议汇集了通常不定期互动的各种语言科学家，因此我们认为，这次会议将导致在语言神经生物学中的有价值的新互动，合作和新颖的思想，包括基础科学发现和针对神经源性语言疾病的基于生理学的疗法的应用。 公共卫生相关性：语言障碍会影响美国数百万的人。有一个广泛的研究社区，其中大部分由NIDCD资助，该研究针对语言和语言障碍的神经基础，针对基础和临床方面的研究。通过为新研究发现和新兴趋势的交流提供论坛，语言会议的神经生物学将在旨在理解，诊断和治疗语言障碍的科学进步中发挥关键作用。
