DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The Gordon Research Conference (GRC) on Oxidative Stress and Disease is designed to provide scientists from a wide range of disciplines with the latest research findings on the role of oxidative stress in a variety of disease processes with emphasis on shared mechanisms. This research conference has been held every 2 years since 1999; it is part of over 150 conferences that will be organized in 2011 by the GRC, an organization internationally known for the high- quality, cutting edge nature of its meetings. Although a comparatively young GRC conference, attendance at the meeting has grown steadily since its inception over ten years ago. The 2011 GRC on Oxidative Stress and Disease will be held March 14-18, 2011 at the Sheraton Four Point/Holiday Inn Express in Ventura, CA. The program for the meeting described in this application has been assembled around the theme of "Emerging research areas in the study of oxidative stress and disease" which have recently collectively changed the way in which we think about the impact of oxidative stress on cellular mechanisms involved in human disease. These will include the impact of oxidative stress on, for example, epigenetics, microRNAs, stem cells, and mitochondrial dynamics. Findings associated with these novel areas of research are in turn likely to affect the manner in which basic research is translated into interventions for oxidative stress-related disorders. This Gordon Research Conference will bring together leading international experts with a broad range of interests related to diverse aspects of oxidative stress and disease and will create a high quality scientific forum for discussion of the latest findings on basic mechanisms and their translational implementation into interventions aimed at novel disease therapies. In addition, for the first time in the history of this conference, a pre-conference Gordon-Kenan Research Seminar will be organized by junior investigators at the postdoctoral level. Activities during the Seminar will be oriented to junior investigators and are intended to: (1) provide them with the basic background on common mechanisms involved in oxidative stress and disease necessary to maximize their understanding of the science which will be discussed in the subsequent conference, (2) receive feedback on their ongoing research projects from experts in the field, and (3) facilitate their interaction with senior members of this scientific community to promote networking between junior and more senior researchers in the field. We fully anticipate that the scientific discussions, research talks, poster sessions, and other informal interactions between the participants of this conference will contribute to advancing our understanding of novel molecular mechanisms involved in oxidative stress- related human disease and will set the basis for the development of collaborative interventions aimed at promoting new therapeutic treatments for these disorders. PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE: The Gordon Research Conference on Oxidative Stress and Disease together with the pre- meeting Gordon Kenan Research Seminar will bring together leaders in a variety of scientific disciplines relevant to the study of oxidative stress-related disorders and junior investigators constituting the future generation of researchers in this field. The scientific presentations, discussions and workshops during this conference are designed to expand our understanding of the mechanisms by which oxidative stress may contribute to disease processes. It is anticipated that the collegial and cooperative atmosphere that has traditionally characterized this conference will provide the perfect setting for the intellectual development and implementation of novel therapeutics for this set of related diseases.

描述（由申请人提供）：戈登氧化应激与疾病研究会议（GRC）旨在为来自各个学科的科学家提供关于氧化应激在各种疾病过程中的作用的最新研究成果，重点是共享机制。该研究会自1999年起每两年举办一次；它是 GRC 将于 2011 年组织的 150 多个会议的一部分，GRC 是一个以其会议的高质量、前沿性而闻名的国际组织。 GRC会议虽然相对年轻，但自成立十多年来，参会人数稳步增长。 2011 年氧化应激与疾病 GRC 将于 2011 年 3 月 14 日至 18 日在加利福尼亚州文图拉的喜来登四点酒店/快捷假日酒店举行。本申请中描述的会议议程围绕“氧化应激和疾病研究的新兴研究领域”主题进行，这些主题最近集体改变了我们思考氧化应激对相关细胞机制的影响的方式在人类疾病中。其中包括氧化应激对表观遗传学、microRNA、干细胞和线粒体动力学等的影响。与这些新研究领域相关的发现反过来可能会影响基础研究转化为氧化应激相关疾病干预措施的方式。本次戈登研究会议将汇集对氧化应激和疾病各个方面具有广泛兴趣的领先国际专家，并将创建一个高质量的科学论坛，讨论基本机制的最新发现及其转化为干预措施的实施新的疾病疗法。此外，本次会议历史上首次将由博士后级别的初级研究人员组织会前戈登-凯南研究研讨会。研讨会期间的活动将面向初级研究人员，旨在：（1）为他们提供氧化应激和疾病所涉及的常见机制的基本背景，以最大限度地提高他们对将在随后的会议中讨论的科学的理解， （2）从该领域的专家那里获得有关他们正在进行的研究项目的反馈，以及（3）促进他们与该科学界的高级成员的互动，以促进该领域的初级和高级研究人员之间的联系。我们完全预计，本次会议参与者之间的科学讨论、研究报告、海报会议和其他非正式互动将有助于增进我们对氧化应激相关人类疾病的新分子机制的理解，并为开发奠定基础。旨在促进这些疾病的新治疗方法的协作干预措施。 公共健康相关性：戈登氧化应激和疾病研究会议以及会前的戈登凯南研究研讨会将汇集与氧化应激相关疾病研究相关的各个科学学科的领导者和构成下一代的初级研究人员该领域的研究人员。本次会议期间的科学演讲、讨论和研讨会旨在扩大我们对氧化应激可能导致疾病过程的机制的理解。预计本次会议传统上的学术和合作氛围将为这一系列相关疾病的新疗法的智力开发和实施提供完美的环境。
