DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The Teratology Society was founded in 1960 to foster the exchange of information relating to the causes and prevention of congenital (birth) defects. While much progress in understanding and preventing birth defects has been made, birth defects still remain a major public health concern and are the leading cause of infant mortality in the US. Initially, birth defects were considered structural abnormalities. We now understand that birth defects include all aspects of functional defects/deficiencies as well. Furthermore, we recognize a wider range of developmentally-mediated disorders which can be affected by a multitude of factors which include not only drugs and chemicals, but also diet, genetics and socioeconomic factors. The Society's diverse membership of clinicians, scientists and science policy regulators from governmental, academic, and industrial sectors, is uniquely suited to address these challenges. In 2014, the Society will hold its 54th Annual Meeting at the Hyatt Regency Bellevue in Bellevue, Washington. The theme for the meeting is Pushing the Boundaries of Birth Defects Research. Symposia topics range from molecular mechanisms and environmentally-related effects to clinical methods, including epigenetics, early (in utero) diagnosis of birth defects, National Children's Study update, testicular dysgenesis syndrome, a "meet the project officers" grant workshop, and thrombosis during pregnancy. The Society understands the importance of encouraging and mentoring students and new/early stage investigators (trainees). Education and training are key elements of the Society's strategic goals so events and sessions are included that encourage trainee participation. There is a platform session comprised of talks competitively selected from trainee-submitted abstracts and judged by past Presidents of the Society. The two top presenters receive an award. The remaining trainee abstracts are included in oral and poster sessions throughout the meeting. Awards are presented for best poster for graduate students and postdocs. A special two-part workshop will be held on Career Development in Birth Defects Research; which was developed for students/trainees and will include talks on effective writing, publishing a paper, and mentor/mentee relationships. In addition, there is a career night event that is designed to promote networking between trainees and scientists. The trainees are also encouraged to serve as ad hoc members on the majority of the Society's committees, thereby deepening their involvement within the Society. The specific aims of this application are to request funds for Travel Awards to students and new/early stage investigators to attend the 2014 Annual Meeting and partially support travel expenses for key nonmember speakers. The Society believes that its trainees are the future of both the Society and the scientific endeavors fostered by its community of scientists. Travel awards help offset the financial burden that might otherwise prevent trainees from attending. The application also requests funds to partially defray travel costs for invited nonmember speakers important in bringing new ideas/technologies to Society members and trainees.

描述（由申请人提供）：Teratology Society成立于1960年，目的是促进与先天性（出生）缺陷有关的信息交换。尽管已经取得了很大的理解和预防出生缺陷的进展，但先天缺陷仍然是一个主要的公共卫生问题，并且是美国婴儿死亡率的主要原因。最初，先天缺陷被认为是结构异常。我们现在了解到，先天缺陷也包括功能缺陷/缺陷的所有方面。此外，我们认识到更多的发育介导的疾病，这些疾病可能会受到多种因素的影响，这些因素不仅包括药物和化学物质，还包括饮食，遗传学和社会经济因素。该协会来自政府，学术和工业部门的临床医生，科学家和科学政策监管机构的多元化成员，非常适合应对这些挑战。 2014年，该协会将在华盛顿贝尔维尤（Bellevue）的贝尔维尤（Hyatt Regency Bellevue）举行第54届年度会议。会议的主题是突破先天缺陷研究的界限。研讨会主题范围从分子机制和与环境相关的作用到临床方法，包括表观遗传学，早期（子宫内）诊断出生缺陷，国家儿童研究更新，睾丸发作障碍综合征，“与项目官员”的“与项目官员”授予助学金工作室以及怀孕期间的血栓形成。该社会了解鼓励和指导学生以及新/早期研究人员（受训者）的重要性。教育和培训是社会战略目标的关键要素，因此包括鼓励学员参与的活动和会议。有一个平台会议由从学员提取的摘要中选出的演讲组成，并由社会过去的总统判断。两个顶级主持人获得奖励。在整个会议期间，其余的学员摘要都包含在口头和海报会议中。为研究生和博士后的最佳海报颁发了奖项。关于先天缺陷研究的职业发展，将举行一个特别的两部分研讨会；这是为学生/学员开发的，将包括有关有效写作，发表论文以及导师/受训者关系的谈判。此外，还有一个职业夜活动，旨在促进学员和科学家之间的网络。还鼓励学员担任大多数社会委员会的临时成员，从而加深他们在社会中的参与。本申请的具体目的是向学生和新的/早期调查人员索取旅行奖的资金，以参加2014年年度会议，并部分支持主要的非会员演讲者的旅行费用。该社会认为，其学员是社会的未来，也是其科学家社区促进的科学努力。旅行奖有助于抵消可能阻止受训人员参加的经济负担。该申请书还要求资金部分支付邀请的非会员演讲者，以将新想法/技术带给社会成员和受训者很重要。
