DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The International Behavioural and Neural Genetics Society (IBANGS) is a young society dedicated to explication of brain mechanisms underlying behavioral and neurogenetic contributions to individual differences. Members employ a full range of model systems, including neural network modeling, C. elegans, D. melanogaster, rodents, non-human primates and humans. Genetic methods employed range widely, including multivariate statistical analyses of gene function, gene expression arrays/proteomics analyses, and gene targeting studies (random and targeted mutagenesis), studies of chimeras, selectively bred and inbred strains, and gene finding methods including linkage and association analyses of major genes and quantitative trait loci. Members include faculty, postdoctoral fellows, and graduate and medical students in a wide variety of disciplines. The group has met 12 times since 1997, continues to attract new members, and now meets annually as a fully independent conference. Over the first four years of the current funding cycle (2007-2010), IBANGS has attracted an average of 100 meeting participants to each of the four meetings. This is an increase of approximately 25% over the average attendance from preceding years. The fifth and final meeting to be supported by the current R13 award will be held in Rome, Italy, May 19-22, 2010. The venue is the Istituto Superiore di Sanit`, the Italian equivalent of NIH. The National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism has provided the bulk of the funding for the current R13 since 2003, and additional support has been provided by the National Institute on Aging, National Institute of Child Health and Human Development, and National Institute of Mental Health. The society's journal, Genes, Brain and Behavior (Wiley Publishing Ltd.), is now published eight times per year by the Society. This journal is entering its ninth year, is indexed by PubMed and achieved an impact factor of 3.975 in 2009, placing it 66th among 230 neuroscience journals. Subscription to the journal is a benefit of IBANGS membership. Neurobehavioral genetics has proven to be a vital research tool in the areas of alcoholism, mental health, child development, and human aging. Historically, studies in those areas have been represented in each of the scientific programs for IBANGS meetings to date. Support is sought to defray travel expenses for 20 students, postdoctoral fellows, and junior faculty each year. From this group of 20 young scientists, 2 outstanding graduate students, 1 outstanding postdoc, and 1 outstanding junior faculty member are chosen to present talks, and they are invited to submit their papers to Genes, Brain and Behavior. This young society presents an opportunity to attract a core group of young investigators during their formative years to neurobehavioral genetics and the pursuit of research improving human health.

描述（由申请人提供）：国际行为和神经遗传学协会（Ibangs）是一个年轻的社会，致力于阐明对个体差异的行为和神经源性贡献的大脑机制。成员采用了全范围的模型系统，包括神经网络建模，秀丽隐杆线虫，D。Melanogaster，啮齿动物，非人类灵长类动物和人类。广泛采用范围的遗传方法，包括基因功能的多元统计分析，基因表达阵列/蛋白质组学分析以及基因靶向研究（随机和靶向诱变），嵌合体的研究，选择性繁殖和杂交菌株的研究，以及基因查找方法和基因查找方法，包括主要基因和量子量的链接和关联分析。成员包括教职员工，博士后研究员，以及各种学科的研究生和医学生。自1997年以来，该小组已经开会了12次，继续吸引新成员，现在每年作为一次独立的会议开会。在当前融资周期的前四年（2007-2010），Ibangs平均吸引了100个会议参与者参加了这四个会议中的每个会议。这比前几年的平均出勤率大约增加了25％。由当前R13奖支持的第五次也是最后一次会议将于2010年5月19日至22日在意大利罗马举行。该场地是Istituto Superiore di Sanit`，意大利人是NIH的意大利人。自2003年以来，美国国家酒精滥用和酒精中毒研究所为当前R13提供了大部分资金，国家老龄化研究所，国家儿童健康与人类发展研究所以及国家心理健康研究所提供了额外的支持。该协会的杂志，基因，大脑和行为（Wiley Publishing Ltd.）现在每年由该协会发表八次。该期刊进入第九年，由PubMed索引，并在2009年获得了3.975的影响因子，在230个神经科学期刊中排名第66。订阅该期刊是Ibangs会员资格的好处。神经行为遗传学已被证明是酒精中毒，心理健康，儿童发育和人类衰老领域的重要研究工具。从历史上看，迄今为止，在Ibangs会议的每个科学计划中，这些领域的研究都得到了代表。 寻求支持，以支付每年20名学生，博士后研究员和初级教师的支付旅行费用。从这组20名年轻科学家，2名杰出的研究生，1名杰出的博士后和1名杰出的初级教职员工中，他们被选为进行演讲，并邀请他们向基因，大脑和行为提交论文。这个年轻的社会提供了一个机会，可以吸引一群年轻的研究者在成长年代的核心遗传学中，并追求改善人类健康的研究。
