DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): We are requesting partial support for the next three Molecular and Cellular Cognition Society (MCCS) Meetings. The next meeting will be held in the San Diego Convention Center on November 7-8, 2013, immediately prior to the annual meeting of the Society for Neuroscience. The MCCS meeting brings together junior and senior scientists that combine molecular (pharmacology, genetics, transgenics, viral approaches, etc.) and physiological (electrophysiology, optical physiology) and other cellular approaches to study behavior, including learning and memory. The general goal of these studies is to derive explanations of cognitive processes that integrate molecular, cellular, and behavioral mechanisms, as well as to use this information and related animal models in the search for treatments for cognitive, psychiatric and neurological disorders in children, adults and the elderly. These meetings have been organized under the sponsorship and leadership of the MCCS, a society that was founded in 2002 and whose main function is to organize meetings and promote interaction and collaborations among laboratories working in this general area. Although there are a few learning and memory meetings in the USA and abroad, the MCCS meeting is unique because it brings together individuals that integrate molecular, physiological and behavioral approaches in studies of cognition, memory and learning-related disorders. Although the molecular and cellular cognition field is relatively new, it already has had a profound impact on neuroscience research. Currently, this is the only periodic meeting in the field, an invaluable opportunity to exchange information, and develop this young field. The 2010-2012 meetings were highly successful, attracting each year a diverse group of approximately 500 participants from North America, Europe, and Asia, and we have every reason to believe that the 2013-2015 meetings will be equally successful.

描述（由申请人提供）：我们请求为接下来的三场分子和细胞认知学会 (MCCS) 会议提供部分支持。下一次会议将于 2013 年 11 月 7 日至 8 日在神经科学学会年会之前在圣地亚哥会议中心举行。 MCCS 会议汇集了初级和高级科学家，他们结合分子（药理学、遗传学、转基因、病毒方法等）和生理学（电生理学、光学生理学）和其他细胞方法来研究行为，包括学习和记忆。这些研究的总体目标是对整合分子、细胞和行为机制的认知过程进行解释，并利用这些信息和相关动物模型来寻找儿童、成人认知、精神和神经系统疾病的治疗方法和老人。这些会议是在 MCCS 的赞助和领导下组织的，MCCS 成立于 2002 年，其主要职能是组织会议并促进在该领域工作的实验室之间的互动与合作。尽管在美国和国外有一些学习和记忆会议，但 MCCS 会议是独一无二的，因为它汇集了在认知、记忆和学习相关障碍研究中整合分子、生理和行为方法的个人。尽管分子和细胞认知领域相对较新，但它已经对神经科学研究产生了深远的影响。目前，这是该领域唯一的定期会议，是交流信息和发展这一年轻领域的宝贵机会。 2010-2012 年的会议非常成功，每年都吸引了来自北美、欧洲和亚洲约 500 名不同群体的与会者，我们有充分的理由相信 2013-2015 年的会议也将同样成功。
