DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This application seeks partial support for the upcoming Federation of American Societies of Experimental Biology (FASEB) conference entitled, "Skeletal Muscle Satellite and Stem Cells", which will be held July 20-25, 2014 in Steamboat Springs, Colorado. This will be the 8th conference focusing on satellite cell/stem cells and the 7th sponsored by FASEB. Based on trends from the past FASEB conferences held in the United States, we expect approximately 185 attendees from around the world (venue capacity for Steamboat Springs). The overall objectives of this biennial meeting include the following: 1) to provide a comprehensive analysis and integration of recent discoveries in the field with the goal of understanding the regulatory mechanisms controlling normal and abnormal functions of muscle stem cells in regeneration, muscle homeostasis, hypertrophy, aging and myopathic states; 2) to create and foster an interactive environment for the exchange of ideas and unpublished data to hasten discoveries and facilitate new and existing collaborations; 3) to provide opportunities for students and junior investigators to present their work and network with senior investigators to foster career development; 4) to facilitate career development of women and other underrepresented groups at all levels by ensuring appropriate representation in the planning, execution and participation in the conference program. No other scientific meeting has a primary focus on muscle satellite and stem cells. The need for a meeting with this focus is evidenced by the steady increase in attendance since the meeting's inception and the consistently excellent post-meeting evaluations by meeting attendees. In addition, this meeting attracts essentially all of the leading muscle stem cell researchers from around the world, further demonstrating the value of this meeting for established and future leaders in the field. The meeting will consist of eight platform sessions with a total of at least 44 speakers. A minimum of 16 speakers will be chosen from submitted abstracts based on the quality and impact of the work within the major themes of the conference, with inclusion of junior investigators being a priority in the selection process. The conference will also include three poster sessions, providing ample opportunity for students and junior investigators to present their work. Major themes will include transcriptional and posttranscriptional regulation of stem cells, satellite cel heterogeneity and potential, stem cell signaling and environmental interactions, satellite cell quiescence, activation and renewal, non-satellite stem cells, satellite cell proliferation, commitment and differentiation, muscle stem cells in growth and hypertrophy, and muscle stem cells in aging and disease. Collectively, this conference will provide a venue to present cutting edge research and promote collaborative interactions among all participants with the goal of advancing a fundamental understanding of muscle stem cell biology, and ultimately, translating this knowledge to the clinic.

描述（由申请人提供）：本申请为即将到来的美国实验生物学社会联合会（FASEB）会议寻求部分支持，标题为“骨骼肌卫星和干细胞”，该会议将于2014年7月20日至25日在科罗拉多州的Steamboat Springs举行。这将是针对卫星细胞/干细胞和FaseB赞助的第七次会议。根据过去在美国举行的FaseB会议的趋势，我们预计世界各地约有185名参与者（Steamboat Springs的场地能力）。这两年一次的会议的总体目标包括以下内容：1）在该领域的最新发现进行全面分析和整合，目的是了解控制肌肉干细胞在再生，肌肉稳态，肥大，衰老和肌无力状态的正常和异常功能的调节机制； 2）创建和促进一个交互式环境，以交换思想和未发表的数据，以加快发现并促进新的和现有的合作； 3）为学生和初级调查人员提供机会，与高级调查员介绍他们的工作并建立联系，以促进职业发展； 4）通过确保在计划，执行和参加会议计划中的适当代表性来促进妇女和其他代表性群体的职业发展。没有其他科学会议主要关注肌肉卫星和干细胞。自从会议成立以来，出勤率的稳定增加以及会议与会者的始终如一的出色术后评估，就可以证明与此重点进行会议的需求。此外，这次会议基本上吸引了来自世界各地的所有领先的肌肉干细胞研究人员，进一步 证明了这次会议对该领域的成熟和未来领导人的价值。会议将包括八个平台会议，总共至少有44位发言人。至少将根据会议主要主题的作品的质量和影响从提交的摘要中选择16位发言人，其中包括初级调查人员是选择过程中的优先事项。会议还将包括三个海报会议，为学生和初级调查人员提供了足够的机会来展示他们的作品。 Major themes will include transcriptional and posttranscriptional regulation of stem cells, satellite cel heterogeneity and potential, stem cell signaling and environmental interactions, satellite cell quiescence, activation and renewal, non-satellite stem cells, satellite cell proliferation, commitment and differentiation, muscle stem cells in growth and hypertrophy, and muscle stem cells in aging and disease.总的来说，这次会议将提供一个展示尖端研究的场所，并促进所有参与者之间的协作互动，以促进对肌肉干细胞生物学的基本了解，并最终将这些知识转化为诊所。
